Effect of surfactant and radiation treatment on the morphology and properties of PP/EG composites
(
Springer
, 2015 , Article)
The effects of surfactant and electron beam (EB) radiation treatment on the morphology and properties of polypropylene (PP)/expanded graphite (EG) composites were investigated. Surfactant treatment and sonication of
EG ...
Morphology and properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) filled with mesoporous silica (MCM-41) prepared by melt compounding
(
Springer
, 2016 , Article)
This paper reports on the morphologies of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/mesoporous silica (MCM-41) composites prepared by melt compounding with various MCM-41 contents in the range of 0.1–5 wt%, the interactions between ...
Effect of layered silicates on the thermal stability of PCL/PLA microfibrillar composites
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
This paper reports on an investigation of the influence of the presence of two different clays, Cloisite 15A
and Cloisite 30B, and fibre drawing on the degradation behaviour and kinetics of PCL/PLA composites. It
was ...
Morphology and thermal degradation studies of melt-mixed poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) biodegradable polymer blend nanocomposites with TiO2 as filler
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
The morphology and thermal stability of melt-mixed poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) blend nanocomposites with small amounts of TiO2 nanoparticles were investigated. The nanoparticles were mostly located ...
The effect of expanded graphite on the thermal stability, latent heat, and flammability properties of EVA/wax phase change blends
(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
This article reports on the morphology, melting and crystallization behavior, thermal stability, flammability and thermal conductivity of shape-stabilized phase-change materials (PCM) for thermal energy storage, based on ...
Prediction of the mechanical properties of copper powder-filled low-density polyethylene composites. A comparison between the ANN and theoretical models
(
Begell House
, 2015 , Article)
In the present study, the mechanical properties of copper (Cu) powder-filled low-density polyethylene
(LDPE) composites are predicted by using artificial neural networks (ANNs) as a function of
the filler concentration. ...
Synergistic effect of expanded graphite, diammonium phosphate and Cloisite 15A on flame retardant properties of EVA and EVA/wax phase change blends
(
Springer
, 2015 , Article)
The influence of the introduction of expanded graphite (EG), as well as combinations of EG with Cloisite 15A clay and diammonium phosphate (DAP), into EVA and an EVA/wax blend on the thermal stability and flammability of ...
Adhesive properties of polyester treated by cold plasma in oxygen and nitrogen atmospheres
(2013 , Article)
Polyester foil was treated by the surface diffuse barrier discharge (SDBD) plasma at atmospheric pressure in oxygen and/or in nitrogen containing a small amount of oxygen to improve its surface and adhesive properties. ...
Thermal and mechanical properties of PP/HDPE/wood powder and MAPP/HDPE/wood powder polymer blend composites.
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
The morphology and properties of blends of PP/HDPE and MAPP/HDPE blends, and their composites with wood
powder, were investigated in this paper. The blends showed two-phase morphologies, and MAPP interacted
better than ...
Generation of photo charge in poly(ethyleneimine)-TiO2-anthocyanin modified papers conditioned at different humidities.
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
The article describes the influence of humidity on the surface photodielectric properties of papers prepared from poly(ethyleneimine)-TiO2 nanoparticles-anthocyanin modified cellulose fibres. The anthocyanins were extracted ...
