[ 1 ] - Effects of Nanoclay on Cellular Morphology and Water Absorption Capacity of Poly(vinyl alcohol) Foam

The present work was aimed to examine the effects of incorporation of each of two different types of nanoclay, i.e. Cloisite Na+ and Cloisite 30B, into PVA foam on cellular morphology and water absorption capacity. Foam samples containing 0.0-10.0 wt% of each of the two types of nanoclay alone were prepared using mechanical foaming. Accordingly, PVA/organoclay/water suspensions were prepare...

[ 2 ] - Effects of Thymolphthalein on Thermo-Oxidative Stability of High Density Polyethylene in Melt and Solid States

The present work aimed to evaluate capability of a new molecular structure to stabilize polyethylene against thermal oxidation. Hence, effects of 3,3-bis(4-hydroxy-2-methyl-5-propan-2-ylphenyl)-2-benzofuran-1-one (thymolphthalein) on thermo-oxidative stability of high density polyethylene (HDPE) in both solid and melt states were investigated and compared with those of SONGNOX 1010, a comme...

[ 3 ] - Preparation of PMMA/MWNTs Nanocomposite Microcellular Foams by In-situ Generation of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

Nanocomposites containing poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and surface functionalized Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWNTs) were synthesized. The dispersion of MWNTs in PMMA was characterized using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM).The synthesized nanocomposites were successfully foamed using a simple method based on the in-situ generation of supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2</sub...

[ 4 ] - Evaluation of effects of thymolphthalein on thermooxidative stability of polypropylene

The present work is aimed to find a new and efficient type of antioxidants for polypropylene. Hence, effects of 3,3-bis(4-hydroxy-2-methyl-5-propan-2-ylphenyl)-2-benzofuran-1-one, generally known as thymolphthalein, on thermo-oxidative stability of polypropylene in solid and melt states were evaluated and compared with those of SONGNOX 1010, an efficient commercially used antioxidant for the po...
