Compatibilizing role of carbon nanotubes in poly(vinyl alcohol)/starch blend
(
WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
, 2015 , Article)
Polymer nanocomposites based on poly(vinyl alcohol)/starch blend and carbon nanotubes (CNT) were prepared by solution mixing, followed by casting. Glycerol was used as a plasticizer and added in the starch dispersion. The ...
Dynamic mechanical properties of PLA/PHBV, PLA/PCL, PHBV/PCL blends and their nanocomposites with TiO2 as nanofiller
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
The effect of blending and the addition of small amounts of TiO2 nanoparticles on the dynamic mechanical properties of PLA/PHBV, PLA/PCL and PHBV/PCL blends is reported in this paper. The storage modulus of the PLA/PHBV ...
The role of clay modifier on cure characteristics and properties of epoxy/clay/carboxyl-terminated poly(butadiene-co-acrylonitrile) (CTBN) hybrid
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2017 , Article)
Epoxy/clay/carboxyl-terminated poly(butadiene-co-acrylonitrile) (CTBN) hybrids were prepared with two different organically modified clays. Octadecyl amine and trimethyl stearyl ammonium-modified nanoclays (Nanomer I.30E ...
Synthesis and characterisation of Ni–B/Ni–P–CeO2 duplex composite coatings
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2018 , Article)
Abstract: Binary (Ni–B, Ni–P) and duplex coatings (Ni–B/Ni–P, Ni–B/Ni–P–CeO2) with an inner Ni–B layer were electrodeposited on mild steel substrates. A comparison of the structural, surface, mechanical, and electrochemical ...
Electrically conductive electrospun polymeric mats for sensing dispersed vegetable oil impurities inwastewater
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
This paper addresses the preparation of electrically conductive electrospun mats on a base of styrene-isoprene-styrene copolymer (SIS) and multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and their application as active sensing elements ...
Solvent Uptake of Liquid Rubber Toughened Epoxy/Clay Nanocomposites
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Carboxyl-terminated poly (butadiene-co-acrylonitrile) (CTBN) liquid rubber toughened epoxy (epoxy/CTBN blend) and CTBN-toughened epoxy/clay nanocomposites (epoxy/clay/CTBN nanocomposites) were prepared, and solvent (acetone) ...
Effect of blend ratio and nanofiller localization on the thermal degradation of graphite nanoplatelets-modified PLA/PCL
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2019 , Article)
A variety of poly(lactic acid) (PLA)-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) samples with different PLA:PCL ratios, containing different contents of graphite nanoplatelets (GrP), were analysed in a thermogravimetric analyser (TG) under, ...
Isothermal crystallization kinetics and morphology of double crystalline PCL/PBS blends mixed with a polycarbonate/MWCNTs masterbatch
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
In this work, the 70/30 and 30/70 w/w polycaprolactone (PCL)/polybutylene succinate (PBS) blends and their corresponding PCL/PBS/(polycarbonate (PC)/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) masterbatch) nanocomposites were ...
Preparation and Preliminary Dielectric Characterization of Structured C60-Thiol-Ene Polymer Nanocomposites Assembled Using the Thiol-Ene Click Reaction
(
MDPI AG
, 2015 , Article)
Fullerene-containing materials have the ability to store and release electrical energy. Therefore, fullerenes may ultimately find use in high-voltage equipment devices or as super capacitors for high electric energy storage ...
Microton irradiation induced tuning of dielectric properties of nano ZnO-natural rubber disks
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
The effect of electron beam irradiation of dielectric and conductivity properties of nano ZnO-natural rubber (NR) disks was investigated here. It is revealed that electric properties such as AC conductivity, dielectric ...
