Preparation and characterization of urea-formaldehyde microcapsules filled with paraffin oil
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Paraffin oil was encapsulated in a urea–formaldehyde polymer shell by in situ polymerization. The effect of modifying the fabrication parameters, specifically the emulsifier, the core material concentration, the stirring ...
Thermal properties of TiO 2 NP/CNT/LDPE hybrid nanocomposite films
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
This work aims to investigate the effect of hybrid filler concentration on the thermal stability of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) matrices. LDPE-based composite films were synthesized by melt mixing, followed by compression ...
Thermal and mechanical characterization of injection moulded high density polyethylene/paraffin wax blends as phase change materials
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Thermal and mechanical properties of blends based on high density polyethylene and paraffin wax were investigated. The blends were prepared from 5 to 50vol. % of paraffin wax employing a twin-screw extruder. Thermal behaviour ...
Processing, characterization and modeling of recycled polypropylene/glass fibre/wood flour composites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Polypropylene (PP) is one of the most common thermoplastic materials in the world. There is a need to recycle the large amount of this used material. To overcome the environmental problems, related to the polymer waste, ...
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 ...
Introduction of Biopolymer Composites: What to do in Electronics?
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2017 , Book chapter)
Environment friendly, biodegradable and nontoxic materials especially from renewable resources are attaining great levels of attention nowadays. Biopolymers contribute a very significant division of materials through which ...
Thermal and mechanical stability of microwave sintered cold compact bismuth telluride thermoelectric material
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Both p-type and n-type bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3)-based thermoelectric materials demonstrate high thermoelectric efficiency in the low-temperature thermoelectric modules, but their constrained thermal and mechanical stability ...
Comparative experimental and modelling study of the thermal and thermo-mechanical properties of LLDPE/wax blends
(
Springer Science and Business Media B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
The interactions and morphology of molecules in a polymer blend influence the physical properties of the blend. However, little is known about the influence of molecular interaction and morphology on the thermal and ...
Preparation and characterization of alumina HDPE composites
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
In this study, effects of two different types of porous alumina nanoparticles have been incorporated into high-density polyethylene (HDPE) to study their impact on the properties of the HDPE composite. The dispersion of ...
Effect of waste wax and chain structure on the mechanical and physical properties of polyethylene
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
The influence of adding waste wax, produced as a by-product of the low density polyethylene manufacturing process, on the thermal and mechanical properties of three types of polyethylene (PE), high-density polyethylene ...
