Introduction: Plastination is a unique technique for preservation of biological specimens used for teaching purposes. The protocol of flexible sheet plastination includes fixation, slicing, dehydration, force impregnation, casting, and curing (Hajian, Rabiei, Fatollahpour & Esfandiary, 2008). The procedure is done by using P87 flexible unsaturated polyester resin and provides heavy, gross, frag...

One of the methods synthesis unsaturated polyester resin modified with dicyclopentadiene using ethylene glycol under specified conditions is considered, dependence acid number at temperatures 160 °C determined

Currently, reuse of solid waste from disused infrastructures is an important environmental issue to study. In this research, polymer concrete was developed by mixing orthophthalic unsaturated polyester resin, artificial microfillers (calcium carbonate), and waste aggregates (basalt and limestone) coming from the recycling process of concrete sleepers. The variation of the mechanical and physica...

Current research concentrates on the impact properties of a particle reinforced polymer matrix composite material. The composite material consists of unsaturated polyester resin that is reinforced with aluminium hydroxide. Aluminium hydroxide acts as the hard phase and polyester as the binding agent. The aim of the work was to understand how the particle size and the filler material’s mass frac...

A new route towards embedding fibrillated cellulose in a non-polar thermoset matrix without any use of organic solvent or chemical surface modification is presented. It is shown that microfibrillated lignocellulose made from cellulose with high residual lignin content is capable of stabilising an emulsion of unsaturated polyester resin in water due to its amphiphilic surface-chemical character....
