A comparative study of polypropylene/chloroprene rubber and recycled polypropylene/chloroprene rubber blends
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2010-10-16)
Blends of virgin and recycled polypropylene with chloroprene rubber have been prepared to compare the effect of blend ratio on mechanical properties and morphology of both virgin and recycled materials. The results showed ...
The tensile properties of chitosan filled polypropylene (PP) composites treated with acetic acid
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2010-10-16)
The effect of chemical modification on tensile properties of chitosan filled polypropylene (PP) composites as a function of filler loading was investigated. The chemical modification was conducted via acetylation of chitosan ...
The effect of sodium hydroxide on properties of coconut shell filled polyester composites
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2010-10-16)
The treatment of coconut shell (CS) with sodium hydroxide on properties of Polyester/CS composites has been carried out. The results showed that the treatment using sodium hydroxide indicates higher in tensile strength and ...
The thermal properties of low density polyethylene (LDPE)/ palm kernel shells (PKS) composites
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2010-10-16)
The thermal properties of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE)/ Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) composites were studied. The composites with and without compatibilizer were prepared and subjected to thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) ...
Effects of dynamic vulcanization on thermal properties of calcium carbonate filled polypropylene/ethylene propylene diene terpolymer composites
(Universiti Putra Malaysia Press, 2010-07)
In this study, dynamic vulcanization process was used to improve the thermal properties of calcium carbonate filled composites. The composites were prepared using a Z-blade mixer at 180°C and rotor speed 50rpm. Thermogravimetric ...
Chitosan- Latex Membrane Composites Film for Heavy Metal Removal
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2010-01-07)
The affinity membrane has emerged as an alternative to the particle media, to overcome mass transfer resistance. The hydrophobic membrane is from the commercially available materials, such as polysulfone, polycarbonate, ...
Recycled Material as a Conductive Polymer for Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) Sensor
(Malaysian Invention and Design Society (MINDS), 2010-05-14)
Polymers becoming electrically conductive when the breakthrough implied that a polymer is imitate a metal and this unexpected discovery broken a traditional concept by establishing a new filled of conducting polymers, which ...
The effect of waste office white paper content and size on the mechanical and thermal properties of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) composites
(Taylor & Francis, 2010-01-07)
The effect of waste office white paper (WOWP) loading and size on mechanical properties, morphology and thermal properties of LDPE/WOWP composites were investigated. The results showed that increasing of WOWP loading has ...
