Recycled polyethylene/paraffin wax/expanded graphite based heat absorbers for thermal energy storage: An artificial aging study
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
An artificial aging study of novel heat absorbers based on phase change materials (PCMs) prepared from recycled high-density polyethylene (HDPE), paraffin wax (PW), and expanded graphite (EG) was investigated. The optimal ...
Effect of two types of graphene nanoplatelets on the physico-mechanical properties of linear low-density polyethylene composites
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2016 , Article)
The influence of two types of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) on the physico-mechanical properties of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) was investigated. The addition of these two types of GNPs - designated as grades ...
Optimization and Prediction of Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Graphene/LLDPE Nanocomposites by Using Artificial Neural Networks
(
Hindawi Publishing Corporation
, 2016 , Article)
The focus of this work is to develop the knowledge of prediction of the physical and chemical properties of processed linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/graphene nanoplatelets composites. Composites made from LLDPE ...
The separation of emulsified water/oil mixtures through adsorption on plasma-treated polyethylene powder
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
This paper addresses the preparation and characterization of efficient adsorbents for tertiary treatment (oil content below 100 ppm) of oil/water emulsions. Powdered low-density polyethylene (LDPE) was modified by ...
Artificial weathering and accelerated heat aging studies on low-density polyethylene (Ldpe) produced via autoclave and tubular process technologies
(
BME-PT and GTE
, 2021 , Article)
Accelerated (artificial) weathering and thermal aging tests were performed to investigate the effectiveness of different formulations in reducing the UV/heat degradation extent for two low-density polyethylene types (LDPE-A, ...
Effect of corona treatment on adhesion enhancement of LLDPE
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Polymers/metal laminates are often used to improve physical and mechanical properties, especially those required in building applications. A flat aluminum composite panel (ACP) consisted mainly of two thin metal sheets ...
Melt processing and properties of linear low density polyethylene-graphene nanoplatelet composites
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Composites of Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) and Graphene Nanoplatelets (GNPs) were processed using a twin screw extruder under different extrusion conditions. The effects of screw speed, feeder speed and GNP ...
Melt processing and characterisation of polyamide 6/graphene nanoplatelet composites
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2015 , Article)
Graphene, due to its outstanding properties, has become the topic of much research activity in recent years. Much of that work has been on a laboratory scale however, if we are to introduce graphene into real product ...
Characterizing Biaxially Stretched Polypropylene / Graphene Nanoplatelet Composites
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2021 , Article)
In this work, polypropylene (PP) nanocomposites containing different weight concentration of graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) were prepared by melt-mixing using an industrial-scale, co-rotating, intermeshing, twin-screw extruder. ...
Foamy phase change materials based on linear low-density polyethylene and paraffin wax blends
(
Springer Nature
, 2018 , Article)
Foamy phase-change materials (FPCMs) based on linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) blended with 30 wt.% of paraffin wax (W) were successfully prepared for the first time. The advantage of these materials is their double ...
