  • Aluminium/floral foam laminated composites under flexural and compression test 

    Sinar Arzuria, Adnan; Nurfarahain, Dzainal; Firuz, Zainuddin, Dr.; Nur Azni, M. A. (Trans Tech Publications, 2014-04)
    This study is concerned on evaluation of laminated composites of aluminium (Al) sheet and floral foam (FF) under flexural and compression test. Effect of different layers of Al/FF laminated composites was evaluated. Epoxy ...

  • Preparation and characterizations of palm oil based rigid nanocomposite polyurethane foam 

    Firuz, Zainuddin, Dr.; Sahrim, Ahmad; Rozaidi, Rasid; Syed Nuzul Fadzli, Syed Adam (MASS Malaysia, 2010)
    The objective of this research is to study and analyze the basic and mechanical properties of polyurethane (PU) foam. PU foams were initially synthesized with reaction of natural oil polyol and isocyanate with ratio of ...

  • Characterization and mechanical properties of biomass polyurethane 

    Nur Azni, M. A.; Sinar Arzuria, Adnan; Firuz, Zainuddin, Dr. (American-Eurasian Network for Scientific Information (AENSI), 2013-10)
    In this work, turmeric (Curcuma Longa) and henna (Lawsonia inermis) has been used as filler to rigid polyurethane (PU) foam. Characterization and mechanical properties of biomass polyurethane has been investigated using ...

  • Properties of recycled high density polyethylene/recycled polypropylene blends : Effect of maleic anhydride polypropylene 

    Maryam Atiqah, A.A.S.; Salmah Husseinsyah, Prof. Madya Ir. Dr.; Firuz, Zainuddin; Du Ngoc, Uy Lan (Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
    Polymer blending provides an efficient way to develop new materials with improved properties while preserve the primary properties of the materials at lower cost. The blends recycled high density polyethylene (rHDPE) and ...

  • Sol-gel synthesis and preliminary characterizations of novel silica hybrid xerogels 

    Syed Nuzul Fadzli, Syed Adam; Roslinda, Shamsudin, Dr.; Firuz, Zainuddin (Trans Tech Publications, 2013-12)
    Hybrid silica xerogel mesoporous composite was synthesized by a mild temperature acid catalysed sol-gel route where a natural copolymer; sodium alginate (Na-COOH) together with calcium oxide (CaO) powder were incorporated ...

  • Effect of carbon nanotubes on the compression test and energy absorption of aluminium/polyurethane-carbon nanotubes foam sandwich 

    Sinar Arzuria, Adnan; Siti Nursyafiqah, Samsudin; Firuz, Zainuddin; Nur Azni, Azizan; Hazizan, Md Akil; Sahrim, Hj Ahmad, Prof. Dr. (Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
    The foam was prepared by mixing the polyols, isocyanate and carbonnanotubes (CNTs) at 1000 rpm speed. The different content of the CNTs are varies from 0 3 (0, 0.5, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0) percent by weight. The foam sandwich ...
