Yarns of fiber assemblies such as ropes would abrade with each other during repeated stretching or bending. The yarn on abrasion failure is a main reason for the final assembly result relative movement to other. To explore influencing factors and mechanism, this work, taking Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Fiber (UHMWPE) research object, discussed influences abrading frequency tension ...

BACKGROUND The impact strength of denture base resin is of great concern and many approaches have been made to strengthen acrylic resin dentures. The objective of this study was to compare the impact strength of the denture base resin with and without reinforcement and to evaluate the impact strength of denture base resin when reinforced with stainless steel mesh, glass fiber, and polyethylene ...

The use of virgin and recycled plastic macro fibers as reinforcing elements in construction materials has recently gained increasing attention from researchers. Specifically, have become more attractive owing to their large-scale availability, negligible cost, low environmental footprint. In this work, we investigate the benefits related fully-recycled synthetic dispersed reinforcement Fiber Re...

Abstract In this article, the consistent pattern of mass transfer in process drying granular polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polycaproamide (PCA), and polyamide 66 (PA 66) were studied. A modified quasi-stationary method was used to analyze data. The characteristic time hydrodynamic intensity index obtained based on experimental Some features water sorption desorption by fiber-forming polymers

The purpose of this study was to assess the removability and biological reactivity of an ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber cable as a new biomaterial for osteosynthesis. We used a pull-out test and an implantation test to analyze the performance of the UHMWPE fiber cable using a dog model, and compared its characteristics with those of a wire cable and a soft wire. In the p...

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) is the most promising technique in present era to bring sustainability, reliability, and pseudo ductility concrete structures due its superior properties. Thermoplastic thermoset polymers are thrown-out synthetic waste that contributes environmental pollution for a long time. Knowing this issue an attempt was made use High-Density Polyethylene Fiber (HDPE) fillers...

The end-product of the electrospinning process is typically a randomly aligned fiber mesh or membrane. This is a result of the electric field generated between the drop of polymer solution at the needle and the collector. The developed electric field causes the stretching of the fibers and their random deposition. By judicious selection of the collector architecture, it is thus possible to deve...

A new type of antimicrobial, biocompatible and toughness enhanced ultra-thin fiber mats for biomedical applications is presented. The tough and porous fiber mats were obtained by electrospinning solution-blended poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and polyethylene oxide (PEO), filled with up to 25 wt % of Lanasol--a naturally occurring brominated cyclic compound that can be extracted from red sea...

This research is conducted to improve the performance of plant fiber-based composites by inserting microcrystalline cellulose (MCC). MCC was incorporated into a mixture recycled high-density polyethylene (rHDPE) and cantala fiber at ratio 1, 2, 3, 4% wt. The rHDPE/cantala fiber/MCC were fabricated via twin screw extruder followed hot press. composite’s mechanical, physical, thermal properties t...
