(
National Assoc. of Corrosion Engineers International
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This work is focused on developing viable self-healing coatings especially considering the viability of the coating in a commercial context. With this in mind, finding low cost healing agents, with satisfactory healing and ...
Microstructural investigation of gamma-irradiated ultra high molecular weight polyethylene in nitrogen atmosphere
(
Trans Tech Publications
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
In this paper the results of structural changes in ultra high molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) upon gamma irradiation and storage in nitrogen environment are reported. Based on differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide ...
Effect of gamma irradiation on the microstructure and morphology of polyethylene oxide and polyvinyl alcohol blends
(
Trans Tech Publications
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
Thin films of a blend of 90, 75, 50 (wt/wt%) percentage of polyethylene oxide and polyvinyl alcohol were synthesized and irradiated with 5, 25, 50, 100 and 200 kGy. The presence of PVA leads to diffusion controlled mechanism ...
