Functional lignin-SiO₂ hybrid fillers were prepared for potential application in binders for phenolic resins, and their chemical structure was characterized. The properties of these fillers and of composites obtained from them with phenolic resin were compared with those of systems with lignin or silica alone. The chemical structure of the materials was investigated by Fourier transform infrare...

Background The green synthesis consists of an environmentally friendly method of producing gold nanoparticles (AuNP’s). Physical and chemical syntheses have energy intensive and may involve toxic chemicals, while biological techniques are cost-effective, clean, non-toxic and environmentally appropriate. Virola oleifera is widely used in folk medicine. The bark of the trunk when scraped produce ...

Phenol formaldehyde (phenolic resin) has a wide range of moldings. However, it immense consumption in manufacturing electrical equipment due to its insulating property. Phenolic resin retains properties at the freezing point, and also age cannot be determined. Due insulator property, use equipment. In this article, degree-based topological indices phenol are determined with help M-polynomial. W...

The purpose of the study is to assess the applicability of full factorial experimental design in predicting the ballistic strength of glass fiber/phenolic ballistic composites. In the study we used a number of ballistic composites (20 cm x 20 cm) with different thickness and fiber/resin ratio. The composites were made by an open mold high pressure, high-temperature compression of prepreg layers...

Abstract The weather resistance of Compreg surfaces depends on various factors, such as top veneer type, impregnating resin, and protective topcoats. Artificial weathering tests were performed for the first time material types with oak teak surfaces. Both showed strong surface brightening due to resin degradation subsequent photobleaching exposed surface. Directly pressed, phenolic resin-impreg...

In this work, nanocrystalline Fe85Si10Ni5 soft magnetic powders were prepared by mechanical alloying and subsequent annealing to reduce the internal stresses and lattice strains. The powders were mixed with phenolic resin and warm pressed to produce nanostructured soft magnetic composites. The effect of annealing time and temperature on the crystalline structure, microstructure and magnetic pro...
