Mechanical and morphological properties of injection-molded rice husk polypropylene composites

Mechanical and Morphological Properties of Polypropylene/Nano α-Al2O3 Composites

A nanocomposite containing polypropylene (PP) and nano α-Al2O3 particles was prepared using a Haake internal mixer. Mechanical tests, such as tensile and flexural tests, showed that mechanical properties of the composite were enhanced by addition of nano α-Al2O3 particles and dispersant agent to the polymer. Tensile strength was approximately ∼ 16% higher than pure PP by increasing the nano α-A...

Characterization and Compression Properties of Injection Molded Carbon Nanotube Composites

Since the development of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in 1991, they have received much attention with improved mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties of their composites compared to common polymer composites. The CNTs are currently used to increase the modulus of common thermoplastics and thermosets, including urethanes and epoxies. The CNTs are difficult to disperse within any media because...

determination of some physical and mechanical properties red bean

چکیده: در این تحقیق، برخی خواص فیزیکی و مکانیکی لوبیا قرمز به-صورت تابعی از محتوی رطوبت بررسی شد. نتایج نشان داد که رطوبت بر خواص فیزیکی لوبیا قرمز شامل طول، عرض، ضخامت، قطر متوسط هندسی، قطر متوسط حسابی، سطح تصویر شده، حجم، چگالی توده، تخلخل، وزن هزار دانه و زاویه ی استقرار استاتیکی در سطح احتمال 1 درصد اثر معنی داری دارد. به طوری که با افزایش رطوبت از 54/7 به 12 درصد بر پایه خشک طول، عرض، ضخام...

Studying nanostructure gradients in injection-molded polypropylene/montmorillonite composites by microbeam small-angle x-ray scattering

The core-shell structure in oriented cylindrical rods of polypropylene (PP) and nanoclay composites (NCs) from PP and montmorillonite (MMT) is studied by microbeam small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS). The structure of neat PP is almost homogeneous across the rod showing regular semicrystalline stacks. In the NCs the discrete SAXS of arranged crystalline PP domains is limited to a skin zone of 3...
