[ 1 ] - Morphology and Mechanical Properties Investigation of Binary Polymer Blends Based on PP/SEBS and PP/PC

In this study, eight binary blends of polypropylene (PP)/ poly [styrene-b-(ethylene-co butylene)-b-styrene] tri-block copolymer (SEBS) and polypropylene (PP)/ polycarbonate (PC) were produced at different composition through twin screw extruder. The composition of the minor phases was changed to correlate the morphology and mechanical properties of binary blends (PP/PC and PP/SEBS) through ther...

[ 2 ] - Thin film nanocomposite forward osmosis membrane prepared by graphene oxide embedded PSf substrate

One of the limiting factors in good performance of forward osmosis (FO) membranes is the internal concentration polarization (ICP). To reduce ICP, thin film nanocomposite forward osmosis (TFN-FO) membranes were fabricated by adding different amounts of graphene oxide (GO) nanoplates (0-1 wt. %) to polymer matrix of polysulfone (PSf) substrate. The prepared nanocomposite membranes exhibited both...

[ 3 ] - Rheological properties of modified Bitumen: Comparison of waste polymers’ performance

In this investigation, rheological properties of three different polymer-modified bitumen compounds containing recycled polyethylene terephthalate (R-PET), crumb rubber (CR) and poly (styrene-butadiene-styrene) (SBS) are evaluated and compared. The modified samples were tested by a dynamic shear rheometer (DSR) where complex modulus (G*), phase angle (δ) and rutting resistance (G*/Sinδ) of spec...

[ 4 ] - A Review of Manufacturing Process of Polyethylene Pipe and Connectors for Applying in High-Pressure Natural Gas Pipelines

In this article various pipes used for transporting of gas are introduced and pros and cons of each one are elucidated. The pipes are categorized in three different subgroups including metallic, polymeric and metallic-wire reinforced polymeric pipes. Metallic-wire reinforced polymeric pipes are nominated as the best option for usage in high pressure pipelines transporting natural gas. As a resu...

[ 5 ] - Effective Parameters on the Phase Morphology and Mechanical Properties of PP/PET/SEBS Ternary Polymer Blends

In this work, ternary polymer blends based on polypropylene (PP)/ polyethylene terephthalate (PET) /poly(styrene-b (ethylene-co-butylene)-b-styrene) (SEBS) triblock copolymer and a reactive maleic anhydride grafted SEBS (SEBS-g-MAH) at various compositions were prepared by co-rotating twin screw extruder. The effects of PET, SEBS and SEBS-g-MAH compatibilizer on morphology of the blends were ex...

[ 6 ] - Epoxy Coatings Physically Cured with Hydroxyl-contained Silica Nanospheres and Halloysite nanotubes

Epoxy coatings are usually reinforced by the use of nanofillers, but reactive nanofillers having physical tendency towards epoxide ring opening are preferable. In this work, nanosilica (SiO2) and halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) known for their hydroxyl-contained surface are used and their effects on the curing behavior of an epoxy/amine coating is compared. The spherical and tubular nano...

[ 7 ] - Assessing the Effect of Nylon 66 and Alumina on Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Epoxy-based Adhesives Through Taguchi Experimental Design Analysis

The effect of alumina and tough nylon 66 on microparticles’ presence the mechanical and thermal properties of epoxy adhesives is assessed here. In order to distribute the adhesive formulation components, in a uniform manner a mechanical stirrer is applied. The effect a combined percentage of nylon66 at (20،30،40 pph) and alumina micro-particles 20 μ (50,60,70 pph) selected based on Taguchi expe...

[ 8 ] - Effect of Carbon Black Content on Curing Behavior of Polysulfide Coatings

Polysulfide is well known elastomer for use in aerospace applications due to providing flexible coating and chemically resistant sealants. In this work, the effects of carbon black content on curing behavior of polysulfide elastomer were investigated and Rheological properties for samples with different filler content 15, 20 and 25 phr were evaluated by rheometric mechanical spectrometer RMS. A...

[ 9 ] - تأثیر اجزای مختلف در فرمول‌بندی چسب‌های پایه اپوکسی بر خواص چسب

رزین‌های اپوکسی به دلایلی چون چسبندگی زیاد، مقاومت شیمیایی و گرمایی مطلوب، خواص عالی مکانیکی و مقاومت الکتریکی بسیار بالا می‌توانند به عنوان پوشش سطوح و یا چسب تحت شرایط محیطی متفاوت به کار روند. چسب‌های اپوکسی غالباً دارای فرمول نسبتاً پیچیده از اجزایی‌اند که هر یک دارای خواص منحصر به فردی است. اجزای تشکیل‌دهنده چسب برحسب نوع جنس سطوح توام با شرایط کاربرد متصل شونده، هزینه تمام شده، و خواص مورد ...
