Thermal and mechanical properties of injection molded recycled high density polyethylene blends with virgin isotactic polypropylene
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2013 , Article)
Polymer blending has become an important field in polymer research and especially in the area of recycling. In this research the target was to reduce the polymer waste problem. Therefore, recycled high density polyethylene ...
Mechanical and thermal properties of date palm leaf fiber reinforced recycled poly (ethylene terephthalate) composites
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2013 , Article)
Development of a recycled poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PETr) reinforced with surface treated date palm leaf fiber (DPLF) composites with enhanced mechanical properties have been studied. Surface modified date palm leaf ...
Tailoring of the thermal, mechanical and dielectric properties of the polypropylene foams using gamma-irradiation
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
This study investigate the influence of gamma-irradiation (GI) doses from 0 up to 50 kGy on the polypropylene (PP) foams, mainly the impact on their structural and physical properties. It was found that structural properties ...
The mechanical and adhesive properties of electrically and thermally conductive polymeric composites based on high density polyethylene filled with nickel powder
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2013 , Article)
Electrically and thermally conductive composites made using high density polyethylene (HDPE) matrix blended with a special grade of branch-structured nickel particles were studied. Composites with high filler content were ...
Differentiating the mechanical response of hierarchical magnesium nano-composites as a function of temperature
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2012 , Article)
The effect of temperature change on quasi-static mechanical response of monolithic Mg alongside hierarchical Mg/Al–Al2O3 nano-composites synthesized through powder metallurgy route followed by microwave assisted rapid ...
Improved mechanical properties of recycled linear low-density polyethylene composites filled with date palm wood powder
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Recycled linear low-density polyethylene (RLLDPE) was blended with date palm wood powder to prepare composites in which the concentration of the filler ranged from 10 to 70wt.%. The cross-linking of composites was performed ...
Using hierarchical composite approach to improve mechanical response of Mg and Mg–Bi2O3 nano-composites
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2013 , Article)
Novel Mg nano-composites reinforced with either Bi2O3 nano-particles or hybrid Al–Bi2O3 particles (Bi2O3 nano-particles hybridized with Al using ball milling) have been synthesized, in this work, through powder metallurgy ...
Enhanced performance of nano-sized SiC reinforced Al metal matrix nanocomposites synthesized through microwave sintering and hot extrusion techniques
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
In the present study, nano-sized SiC (0, 0.3, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 vol%) reinforced aluminum (Al) metal matrix composites were fabricated by microwave sintering and hot extrusion techniques. The structural (XRD, SEM), mechanical ...
Hierarchical honeycomb auxetic metamaterials
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2015 , Article)
Most conventional materials expand in transverse directions when they are compressed uniaxially resulting in the familiar positive Poisson’s ratio. Here we develop a new class of two dimensional (2D) metamaterials with ...
Properties of microwave sintered al-cu metal matrix composites
(
Association for Iron and Steel Technology, AISTECH
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The present work focuses on the effect of copper (Cu) reinforcement on structural and mechanical properties of Al-Cu composites synthesized through microwave sintering approach. The pure aluminum (Al) and copper (Cu) powders ...
