The effects of carbon black, silica and calcium carbonate in virgin PE/recycle PE/EPDM blends: Thermal properties & swelling analysis
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)The effects of carbon black (CB), silica and calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in virgin polyethylene (vPE)/recycle polyethylene (rPE)/ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) blends were investigated. rPE was melt blended with ... -
The effects of dynamic vulcanization in virgin polyethylene (vPE)/ recycled polyethylene (rPE)/ ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) blends: Tensile properties and morphology
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)The effects of dynamic vulcanisation in vPE/rPE/EPDM blends were studied. The discarded polyethylene used in the study was obtained from local cable manufacturers. The effects of different sulfur loading on the tensile ... -
The effects of dynamic vulcanization in virgin polyethylene (vPE)/recycled polyethylene (rPE)/ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) blends: Thermal properties and swelling behaviour
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)The effects of dynamic vulcanization on the thermal properties and swelling behaviour of vPE/rPE/EPDM blends were studied. The discarded polyethylene used in the study was obtained from local wire insulation industry. The ... -
The influence of CB, silica and CaCO₃ on tensile and morphological properties of vPE/rPE/EPDM blends
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)The virgin polyethylene (vPE) and recycled polyethylene (rPE) was melt blended with ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) in different ratio by using a Haake Rheomix at 180°C and 50 rpm were prepared. The characterization ...
