Development of value-added polyethylene grades with extended service lifetime: Weathering resistant flame retarded materials for outdoor applications
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
The current article deals with the development of different novel, tailor-made polyolefin formulations exhibiting both low flammability and high weathering resistance, so as to provide value-added polyethylene grades with ...
Effect of poly(ε-caprolactone) and titanium (IV) dioxide content on the UV and hydrolytic degradation of poly(lactic acid)/poly(ε-caprolactone) blends
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
The effect of accelerated weathering degradation on the properties of poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) blends and PLA/PCL/titanium (IV) dioxide (TiO2) nanocomposites are presented in this paper. The results ...
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. ...
Enhancing the UV/heat stability of LLDPE irrigation pipes via different stabilizer formulations
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
Herein different stabilizer formulations of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) against UV- and heat-initiated degradation are described. The project aims at outdoor applications, such as irrigation piping and profiles, ...
