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 ...
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 ...
Properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites: The effect of acetic acid
(Taylor and Francis Group, LLC, 2012-01)
The main objective of this research was to investigate the effect of chitosan content and chemical modification with acetic acid on mechanical and thermal properties of PP/Chitosan. It was found that the tensile strength, ...
Chemical modification of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites: The effect of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane on mechanical and thermal properties
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2011-01)
Chitosan was used as filler in polypropylene (PP) polymer. In order to improve compatibility between chitosan and PP, chitosan was chemically modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (3-APE). The results show that the ...
Thermal properties of recycled polyethylene/chitosan composites: The effect of eco-degradant PD 04
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
The effect of eco-degradant PD 04 as additive on the thermal properties of recycled polyethylene (RPE)/chitosan biopolymer was investigated. The different scanning calorimetric (DSC) was used to investigate the thermal ...
Mechanical and thermal properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene composites: The effect of acrylic acid
(Society of Plastics Engineers, 2011-06)
The mechanical properties, morphology, and thermal properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites have been studied. The effect of the chemical modification of chitosan by acrylic acid treatment was also ...
Properties of recycled polyethylene/chitosan composites: The effect of polyethylene-graft-maleic anhydride
(SAGE Publications, 2011-02)
The surface of recycled polyethylen (RPE)/chitosan composites was modified with polyethylene-graft-maleic anhydride (MAPE). The mechanical properties, water absorption, morphology, and thermal properties were investigated. ...
