Modified cocoa pod husk-filled polypropylene composites by using methacrylic acid
(North Carolina State University, 2013-08)
The effect of filler modification using methacrylic acid (MAA) on polypropylene (PP)/cocoa pod husk (CPH) composites was studied. The performances of unmodified and modified PP/CPH composites were analyzed for torque ...
Chitosan/corn cob biocomposite films by cross-linking with glutaraldehyde
(North Carolina State University, 2013-05)
Corn cob (CC) was used as a filler in chitosan (CS) biopolymer films. The effect of glutaraldehyde (GLA) as a crosslinking agent was studied in an effort to improve the properties of CS/CC biocomposite films prepared via ...
Modified corn cob filled chitosan biocomposite films
(Taylor and Francis Group, LLC., 2013-11)
The present work was investigated the effect of filler content and chemical modification on mechanical, thermal properties and morphology study of CS/CC biocomposite films. The acrylic acid was used as chemical modification ...
Tensile and morphology properties of polylactic acid/ treated typha latifolia composites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013-12)
This paper is focused to investigate the effect of treated natural fiber (typha latifolia) content on tensile and morphology properties of polylactic acid (PLA)/treated typha latifolia (T-TyLa) composites. The composite ...
Corn cob filled chitosan biocomposite films
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Recently, there has been renews interest in chitosan as materials in producing of biocomposite films. The chitosan (CS)/corn cob (CC) biocomposite films were prepared by solvent casting method. The effect of CC content on ...
Rheological and thermal properties of palm kernel shell–filled low-density polyethylene composites with acrylic acid
(SAGE Publications, 2013-10)
The melt flow behaviours of low-density polyethylene (LDPE)/palm kernel shell (PKS) composites were studied. Acrylic acid (AA) was used as a chemical modifier for PKS. The effect of filler loading and the presence of AA ...
Effect of compatibilizer on mechanical properties and water absorption behaviour of coconut fiber filled polypropylene composite
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013-03)
Compatibilizer is used to improve mechanical properties and water absorption behaviour of polypropylene/coconut fiber (PP/CF) composites by promoting strong adhesion between CF filler and PP Matrix. Maleic Anhydride Grafted ...
Properties of low-density polyethylene/palm kernel shell composites: Effect of polyethylene co-acrylic acid
(SAGE Publications, 2013-02)
Palm kernel shell (PKS)-filled low-density polyethylene (LDPE) composites was studied. The polyethylene co-acrylic acid (PEAA) was used as compatibilizer. The tensile properties, thermal analysis, water absorption, and ...
Mechanical, morphological and thermal properties of chitosan filled polypropylene composites: The effect of binary modifying agents
(Elsevier B.V., 2013)
This work investigates the effects of the binary modifying agents-organosolv lignin and acrylic acid, on the mechanical and thermal properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites. We analyse the mechanical and ...
The effect of shear rate and temperature on rheology properties of magnesium metal injection molding feedstock
(Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l., 2013-11)
Metal injection molding (MIM) becomes a well-established and promising technology for small and mass production. Feedstock characterization is one of the most important roles in ensuring the properties of the MIM products. ...
