a new poly(vinylchloride) membrane sensor for cr3+ ions based on di (benzylamino)glyoxime asan ionophore was prepared. the electrode has a linear dynamic range 1×10-6-1×10-1 mol l-1,with anernstian slope of 20.3 ± 0.5 mv per decade and a detection limit of 2×10-7. it has a fast responsetime of

The photodegradation of a 1:1 blend of poly (caprolactone) and poly(vinyl chloride) has been studied by following carbon dioxide emission during UV exposure. Similar measurements were made on poly(caprolactone) and poly(vinyl chloride) homopolymers prepared and irradiated in the same way. It was found that the blend gave lower CO2 emission than either of the two homopolymers, indicating that th...

Abstract This work presents the effect of drying temperature on formation poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) honeycomb microstructures formed by breath figure technique. Results revealed self-assembly patterns with small cell diameter and thick walls dried at room temperature. An increase in a decrease wall thickness were observed as was increased up to 70 °C while no noted temperatures greater than or...

This paper develops a method of welding two thin sheets of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) with a heated pin, thus allowing construction of a relationship between the weld temperature and weld strength. Constructing a relationship between weld strength and temperature is necessary for modeling many welding processes, including laser transmission welding. An experimental approach to establishing this...

Plastic piping made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and chlorinated PVC (CPVC), is being increasingly used for drinking water distribution lines. Given the formulation of the material from vinyl chloride (VC), there has been concern that the VC (a confirmed human carcinogen) can leach from the plastic piping into drinking water. PVC/CPVC pipe reactors in the laboratory and tap samples collected fr...

In the present investigation, solution casting method was used for the preparation of nanocomposite (NC) films. At first, the surface of ZrO2 nanoparticles (NPs) was modified with vitamin B1 (VB1) as a bioactive coupling agent to achieve a better dispersion and compatibility of NPs within the poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) matrix. The grafting of modifier on the surface of ZrO2 was confirmed by Fou...

mixing conditions of nbr/pvc nanocomposites such as mixing temperature, rotor speed and mixing time are determining parameters in rheological, mechanical and morphological properties of the compound. three levels were chosen for each parameter using design expert software via box-behnken method. the nanocomposite samples were melt-mixed in brabender internal mixer. the effect of various mixing ...
