This work presents results of bulk conductivity and surface potential decay measurements on low-density polyethylene and its nanocomposites filled with uncoated MgO and Al2O3, with the aim to highlight the effect of the nanofillers on charge transport processes. Material samples at various filler contents, up to 9 wt %, were prepared in the form of thin films. The performed measurements show a ...

The potential utilization of melamine impregnated paper (MIP) waste in thermoplastic composites was investigated. Composites were also manufactured utilizing wood flour (WF) at the same filler rates for comparison. using a compression molding method. effects type and rate on mechanical properties low-density polyethylene (LDPE)-based evaluated. Mechanical properties, such as tensile flexural st...

The global production and consumption of plastics have continued to increase. Plastics degrade slowly, causing persistent environmental pollution Developed waste plastic recycling methods are discussed in this report, with a focus on the dissolution/reprecipitation technique restore low-density polyethene (LDPE) wastes. Aspen HYSYS is used simulate LDPE. Turpentine/petroleum ether (TURP/PetE) c...

Methodology Active packaging material was low density polyethylene (LDPE) film incorporated with Tinuvin 326(UV absorber) and iron powder in different concentrations (0-0.5% and 0-15% w/w, respectively). Eleven treatments were performed according to the central composite design (CCD) in order to evaluate changes in mechanical, physical and barrier properties of films. Moreover, the influence of...

Polyethylene wax was obtained from pyrolysis experiments on Low Density (LDPE) wastes using a muffle furnace in inert condition. 60 – 80% of the initial mass were as heating added at rate 10oC/min. Operating conditions for reaction 400 450oC over time 30 50min and effects these parameters discussed. Using Friedman’s iso-conversional model, kinetic - activation energy, pre-exponential factor fre...

Abstract This research focuses on recycling rubber tire waste through pyrolysis to produce recovered carbon black (rCB). The rCB is combined with recycled low-density polyethylene (rLDPE), calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ), fatty acid, metallic stearate, and (PE) wax create an masterbatch for household packaging. Surface modification of CaCO particles using stearic acid improves the compatibility LDP...

This article contains the dataset referring to the article "Study of the effect of the dispersion of functionalized nanoparticles TiO2 with photocatalytic activity in LDPE" (Jahell et al., 2016) [1]. It includes the FT-IR data of the functionalized nanoparticles of TiO2 with Hexadecyltrimethoxysilane in different degrees of functionalization, thermogravimetric analysis, distribution and particl...

In this paper, we report on the time dependent DCconductivity response at constant electric field of unfilled low density polyethylene (LDPE) and its composites containing untreated and octylsilane treated silica in ambient and dry atmospheres. The conductivity of both composites decrease with time under dry conditions and increase with time in ambient atmosphere. The dielectric response of dry...
