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)...

This work succeeded in synthesizing sponges from chitosan-graft-maleic anhydride. Chitosan and maleic anhydride at a certain mass ratio (1:2, 1:1; 2:1) were reacted dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) 60

In this letter, nanocomposites based on maleic anhydride grafted high density polyethylene (HDPE-g-MA) and amine-functionalized nanodiamond (ND) were fabricated via one-step reactive melt-blending, generating a homogeneous dispersion of ND, as evidenced by transmission electron microscope observations. Thermal analysis results suggest that addition of ND does not affect significantly thermal st...

Polyurethane (PU) is a very popular polymer that is used in a variety of applications due to its good mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties. However, PU recycling has received significant attention due to environmental issues. In this study, we developed a recycling method for waste PU that utilizes the radiation grafting technique. Grafting of waste PU was carried out using a radiation ...

Polypropylene grafted maleic anhydride (PP-MA, 2500 g mole(-1)) has demonstrated its unique capability to synthesize 1-D ferromagnetic hard (292.7 Oe) γ-Fe2O3 nanochains made of ~24 nm nanoparticles vs. PP-MA with 8000 g mole(-1) for the synthesis of 1-D ferromagnetic soft (70.5 Oe) γ-Fe2O3 nanochains (30 nm) made of flowerlike nanoparticles.

This work aimed to investigate the biopolyethylene (BioPE)/wood powder (WP) composites compatibilized with polyethylene-grafted maleic anhydride (PE-g-MA), using macaíba oil (OM) as a processing aid. The were prepared, fist, in an internal mixer and, later, crushed flakes molded by injection. Mechanical properties (impact, tensile, flexural and Shore D hardness), heat deflection temperature (HD...

The effect of chemical treatment at fiber–plastic interface and fiber loading level on creep property of bamboo fiber high-density polyethylene (BF/HDPE) composites was investigated. For single modifier systems, the use of maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene (PE-g-MA) as a coupling agent helped reduce the creep and achieved the optimum effect at the 5.7% loading level. The addition of either ...

Abstract This article presents the assessment of bulk and in situ mechanical properties rubber–wood–plastic composites (RubWPC) their correlations, aiming to obtain a thorough understanding behaviour RubWPC, which is an essential prerequisite realising optimal design applications. Dynamic analysis results showed that treated with multiple coupling agents (combination maleic anhydride polyethyle...

nanocomposites based on polyamide 6 (pa6) and poly(ethylene-co-1-butene)-graft-maleic anhydride (eb-g-mah) blends have been prepared via melt mixing. the effect of blend ratio and organoclay concentration onthe crystallization and melting behavior of specimens were studied. three types of commercial organo-modifiedclay (cloisite 30b, cloisite 15a and cloisite 20a) were employed to assess the im...
