Natural rubber nanocomposites: effect of carbon black/multi-walled carbon nanotubes hybrid fillers on the mechanical properties and thermal conductivity
This work presents the effect of carbon black (CB)/multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) hybridfiller system on the mechanical properties and thermal conductivity of natural rubber (NR) based...
Influence of filler hybridization on thermomechanical properties of hemp/silver epoxy composite
The polymer composite material’s thermomechanical properties with fiber as reinforcement material have been widely studied in the last few decades. However, these fiber-based polymer composites...
Thermally drawn biodegradable fibers with tailored topography for biomedical applications
There is a growing demand for polymer fiber scaffolds for biomedical applications and tissue engineering. Biodegradable polymers such as polycaprolactone have attracted particular attention due to...
Rheological study of EPDM/silicone rubber blends phase inversion and characterization of resultant mechanical and thermal properties
This study was committed to the characterization of the rheological, thermal, mechanical, and morphological properties of ethylene‐propylene‐diene monomer (EPDM)/silicone rubber (SR) blends....
Thermomechanical and tribological properties of spark plasma sintered bearing steel/cBN(Ni) composites for engineering applications
This study attempt to investigate microstructural, thermomechanical and tribological properties of low-temperature sintered cBN and Ni-coated cBN reinforced bearing steel composites. Ultrasonic probe...
Ultra-light, heat-resistant, flexible and thermal insulation graphene-fluororubber foam prepared by using N2 as a blowing agent
Developing light-weight fluororubber foam is a challenging task mainly because of its high density and the easy shrinkage of foam. A promising approach to overcome this challenge is the use of...
Thermally conductive and electrically insulating alumina-coated graphite/phthalonitrile composites with thermal stabilities
Alumina-coated graphite (Al2O3@graphite) core-shell particles were firstly synthesized by a liquid-phase chemical precipitation with the aid of sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SDS) surfactant using an...
Mechanical, Thermal and Electrical Property Enhancement of Graphene-Polymer Nanocomposites
In this work, NanoXplore’s proprietary graphene nanoplatelets, heXo-G V20, are melt-extruded into thermoplastics LLDPE, HDPE and TPU. Graphene is shown to effectively increase the stiffness and the...
