“…An also for the composites that contain of TMPTA. It is similar result that obtained form Zenkiewiez et al [7], the Charpy impact strength of composites containing 1% TMPTA has dereased with increasing irradiation dose. At a dose of 300 kGy, the σc values for the composites are lower by 11% as compare to the values for the non-irradiated samples.…”

The effect of electron beam irradiation on the mechanical properties of pineapple leaf fibre (PALF) reinforced high impact polystyrene (HIPS) composites Abstract. The effects of electron beam irradiation on the mechanical properties of pineapple leaf fibre reinforced high impact polystyrene (HIPS) composites were studied. Two types of crosslinking agent that has been used in this study were trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) and tripropylene gylcol diacrylate (TPGDA). A 50 wt.% of PALF was blended with HIPS and crosslinking agent using Brabender melt mixer at 165 °C. The composites were then irradiated using a 3 MeV electron beam accelerator with dosage of 0-100 kGy. The tensile strength, tensile modulus, flexural strength, flexural modulus, notched and unnotched impat and hardness of composites were measured and the effects of crosslinking agent were also compared.

“…Compatibility is often a poorly defined, qualitative term that can lead to different interpretations (Żenkiewicz and Dzwonkowski, 2007). Usually the term 'compatibility' is used for a mixture of materials that reach a desired property, for example, good impact resistance and/or high tensile strength, or at least don't lose material properties when they are processed simultaneously (Paul and Bucknall, 2000).…”

“…Electron beam (EB) radiation is one type of physical crosslinking technique considerably attractive technique since it is simple, straight forward and faster processing times. In fact, EB radiation is also an environmentally friendly which no chemicals are required nor produce any chemical residues during the process like chemical crosslinking technique [4,5]. The most interesting of EB radiation is the changes of molecular structure of material due to the electron beam itself that makes the material has unique properties.…”

This study focuses on the mechanical effect of different composition of polymer blend. Polymer blend of high density polyethylene (HDPE) and ethylene propylene rubber (EPR) were selected and varied by three different compositions which are 70:30, 50:50 and 30:70. HDPE-EPR blend is believed to be the best material for sole shoe. In which, HDPE has good flexibility while, EPR can maintain optimum performance at high and low temperature as well as provide better gripping characteristic that suits for insole and outsole sport shoe. On the other hand, the time efficiency of electron beam radiation on these polymer blends helps in improving the croslinking of HDPE-EPR blend. The aim of this paper was to find the optimum composition of electron beam irradiated polymer blends for sole shoes especially in sports application. These irradiated polymer blends were produced by melt blending, underwent compression moulding and then were irradiated by electron beam at 100 kGy/s. Mechanical test of tensile and hardness test were investigated and the morphology of the failure fracture was analysed by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The polymer blend with 70% of HDPE and 30% of EPR showed the optimum result of tensile strength, tensile modulus and hardness as well as ductile failure image.
