Abstract This new observation demonstrated that an increase in oil amounts within ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) compounds decreased the crosslink density and storage modulus but elongation at break after tensile testing. The with high were observed to release particles when dissolved toluene solutions increased their swell ratios. Consequently, had a perfect negative linear correlatio...

A new class of biobased composites with tailorable mechanical properties made natural fibers, polylactic acid, and ferulic acid derivatives (FAD) is studied. FAD was used to develop elastomeric like improved elongation at break highly reversible deformation upon elongation. Composites were prepared using raw enzymatically treated hemp fibers. The fibers defibrillated due the enzymatic treatment...

combining antimicrobial agents directly into a food packaging is a form of active packaging. in this study chitosan-based edible films containing thyme and cinnamon essential oils at 0.5%, 1%, and 1.5% v/v were prepared to examine their antibacterial, physical and mechanical properties. scanning electron microscopy was carried out to explain structure-property relationships. films were more eff...

the organo-metal salt of aluminum triacrylate (alta) with a general formula of (ch2=chcoo)3al was  synthesized  as  a  reactive  fller  for  elastomers through a two-step synthetic procedure. fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (ftir), dsc and dta were employed for alta analysis and to study its cure characteristics. in this research, two composites based on ethylene propylene diene monomer...

In this study, the mechanical performances of neat Polyamide 6 (PA6) polymer, 20wt.% glass fiber reinforced PA6, and 8% SEBS elastomer with 20% PA6 composite were investigated. Composite materials first produced in form granules by using a twin-screw extruder. Later, test samples molded, accordance American Society Testing Materials (ASTM) standards, an injection molding technique. Mechanical p...

Ana akımın en tanınmış ve en önemli iki aydınının iletişim alanında en önemli klasik yapıtlarından biri de Mass Communication, Popular Taste and Organized Action yapıtıdır. Lazarsfeld iletişimde ampirik yöntemin gelişmesinde ve yönetimsel araştırmanın yaygınlaşmasında öncülük etmiştir. Merton, T. Parsons’un yapısal fonksiyonalizmini geliştiren Amerikan ana akım sosyolojisinin önemli liderlerind...

Theoretical calculations, computer simulations, and experiments indicate the possible existence of a ferromagnetic liquid state, although definitive experimental evidence is lacking. Should such a state exist, demagnetization effects would force a nontrivial magnetization texture. Since liquid droplets are deformable, the droplet shape is coupled with the magnetization texture. In a thin-film g...

In this research, high oxygen-barrier films were organized based on low-density polyethylene (LDPE)/ ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH)/ polyethylene-grafted maleic anhydride (LDPE-g-MA) compatibilizer. The effects of 10–30 wt. % EVOH and 0–10 wt. % LDPE-g-MA loadings on the properties of final films were evaluated. The morphology of specimens was observed by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM)...
