The Effect of Titanium Dioxide Surface Modification on the Dispersion, Morphology, and Mechanical Properties of Recycled PP/PET/TiO2 PBNANOs
(MDPI, 2019-10-16)
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles have recently appeared in PET waste because of the introduction of opaque PET bottles. We prepare polymer blend nanocomposites (PBNANOs) by adding hydrophilic (hphi), hydrophobic (hpho), ...
Tailoring the isothermal crystallization kinetics of isodimorphic poly (butylene succinate-ran-butylene azelate) random copolymers by changing composition
(Elsevier, 2019-10-07)
A detailed isothermal crystallization study of biobased and biodegradable isodimorphic poly (butylene succinate-ran-butylene azelate) random copolyesters (PBS-ran-PBAz) with a wide composition range has been carried out ...
Crystallization and Morphology of Triple Crystalline Polyethylene-b-poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(ε-caprolactone) PE-b-PEO-b-PCL Triblock Terpolymers
(MDPI, 2021-09-16)
The morphology and crystallization behavior of two triblock terpolymers of polymethylene, equivalent to polyethylene (PE), poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO), and poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL) are studied: PE227.1-b-PEO4615.1-b-PCL3210.4 ...
Supernucleation Dominates Lignin/Poly(ethylene oxide) Crystallization Kinetics
(American Chemical Society, 2022)
The effect of lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) on the crystallization kinetics of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) is examined. Lignin from spruce and ionic isolation was used to prepare LNPs with a number-averaged diameter of 85 nm ...
Morphology, Nucleation, and Isothermal Crystallization Kinetics of Poly(Butylene Succinate) Mixed with a Polycarbonate/MWCNT Masterbatch
(MDPI, 2018-04-10)
In this study, nanocomposites were prepared by melt blending poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) with a polycarbonate (PC)/multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) masterbatch, in a twin-screw extruder. The nanocomposites contained ...
Isothermal Crystallization Kinetics and Morphology of Double Crystalline PCL/PBS Blends Mixed with a Polycarbonate/MWCNTs Masterbatch
(MDPI, 2019-04-15)
In this work, the 70/30 and 30/70 w/w polycaprolactone (PCL)/polybutylene succinate (PBS) blends and their corresponding PCL/PBS/(polycarbonate (PC)/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) masterbatch) nanocomposites were ...
Nucleation of Poly(lactide) on the Surface of Different Fibers
(ACS Publications, 2019-08-14)
The nucleation process of poly(lactide) (PLA) on a series of fibers was studied by means of in-situ Polarized Optical Microscope (POM) during crystallization. Several synthetic and natural fibers (PLLA stereocomplex fibers ...
Nucleation and Crystallization of PA6 Composites Prepared by T-RTM: Effects of Carbon and Glass Fiber Loading
(MDPI, 2019-10-14)
Thermoplastic resin transfer molding (T-RTM) is attracting much attention due to the need for recyclable alternatives to thermoset materials. In this work, we have prepared polyamide-6 (PA6) and PA6/fiber composites by ...
Influence of chain topology on gel formation and direct ink printing of model linear and star block copolymers with poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(ε-caprolactone) semi-crystalline blocks
(Elsevier, 2023-12-11)
In this work, a set of well-defined linear triblock copolymers and star block copolymers (3 and 4-arms) with semi crystalline blocks consisting of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL), synthesized ...
