“…For the first five resonances, between E cm r = 242 and 597 keV, we use the strengths measured by Görres et al [104], their total widths being unknown or small. The next five resonances are broad and their partial widths are known [21,86,96,146,193,147,185]. It must be pointed out that only the γ-ray transition to the ground state has been measured for the E cm r = 1085 and 1230 keV resonances, so that their contribution should be considered as a lower limit.…”

Numerical values of charged-particle thermonuclear reaction rates for nuclei in the A=14 to 40 region are tabulated. The results are obtained using a method, based on Monte Carlo techniques, that has been described in the preceding paper of this series (Paper I). We present a low rate, median rate and high rate which correspond to the 0.16, 0.50 and 0.84 quantiles, respectively, of the cumulative reaction rate distribution. The meaning of these quantities is in general different from the commonly reported, but statistically meaningless expressions, "lower limit", "nominal value" and "upper limit" of the total reaction rate. In addition, we approximate the Monte Carlo probability density function of the total reaction rate by a lognormal distribution and tabulate the lognormal parameters µ and σ at each temperature. We also provide a quantitative measure (Anderson-Darling test statistic) for the reliability of the lognormal approximation. The user can implement the approximate lognormal reaction rate probability density functions directly in a stellar model code for studies of stellar energy generation and nucleosynthesis. For each reaction, the Monte Carlo reaction rate probability density functions, together with their lognormal approximations, are displayed graphically for selected temperatures in order to provide a visual impression. Our new reaction rates are appropriate for bare nuclei in the laboratory. The nuclear physics input used to derive our reaction rates is presented in the subsequent paper of this series (Paper III). In the fourth paper of this series (Paper IV) we compare our new reaction rates to previous results.

“…In light of governmental emphasis on new environmental regulations and sustainability concepts, the utilization of fibers will not only need to reduce energy consumption and environmental pollution, but also will need to promote sustainable development in the transportation industry. Natural fibers have attracted the attention of many researchers because they offer a great number of advantages compared with glass fibers, such as ecofriendliness, renewability, recyclability, and biodegradability [6,[16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. They are considered as strong candidates to replace the conventional glass fibers.…”

Investigation of novel lightweight phenolic foam‐based composites reinforced with flax fiber mats

Demand has been growing for natural fibers that are eco‐friendly, renewable, and show sustainable development during their service lifetime. In this study, a series of novel phenolic foam‐based composites, modified by polyaryl polymethylene isocyanate (PAPI), were synthesized and then reinforced with flax fiber mats. The structure and reactive behavior of PAPI and phenolic resin were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The effect of formulation of PAPI:Resol‐type phenolic resin (PR) on the mechanical properties of the composites were studied. The results suggested that the impregnation of PAPI and PR into mats showed good mechanical properties, furthermore, PAPI:PR in a 3:1 ratio led to the best reinforced material with inner bonding, flexural, and impact strengths of 3.39, 25.91 MPa, and 3.88 kJ/m2, respectively. In addition, the morphology of the composites was observed using scanning electron microscopy. Thermal stability and flame retardancy were examined using thermogravimetric analysis and limiting oxygen index (LOI) tests. It was found that the composites exhibited good thermal stability and high char yields. The LOI value of the modified phenolic foam‐based composites decreased with increasing PAPI content, but it still remained at about 24%. POLYM.

“…In the last few years, WF filled plastics, popularly known as wood plastic composites (WPC), have found application in developing structural and automotive components [5][6][7]. Several articles are available on WF/polymer composites [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] that deal with mechanical, structural, and thermal behavior. For instance, the mechanical performance of WF filled/polypropylene (PP) composites has been studied with and without interface modification.…”

“…WF was incorporated into the matrix after esterification with maleic anhydride (MAH) or without any modification but with the addition of a compatibilizing agent (MAH-PP copolymer) to modify the polymer-filler interaction [7]. Kuan et al [5] reported the mechanical, thermal, and morphological properties of water crosslinked WF filled linear low density polyethylene composites. Thermal and mechanical properties of foam wood polymer composites have been investigated by Mishra and Verma [6].…”

A series of wood flour (WF) filled epoxy composites consisting of five samples were prepared by varying the concentration of WF in step of 10 wt%. These samples were characterized for its wear behavior in abrasive and sliding wear modes to study the influence of WF. It was observed that specific wear rate (k 0 ) of all the composites decreased with increasing load in sliding wear mode. Specific wear rate was of the order of 10 210 m 3 /Nm in abrasive wear mode and $ $ $10 214 m 3 / Nm in sliding wear mode. Composite containing 40 wt% WF exhibited the lowest specific wear rate in abrasive wear mode. While composite containing 20 wt% WF exhibited lowest specific wear rate in sliding wear mode. This was attributed to the fact that in abrasive wear mode, the wear debris consisting of mainly WF particles was maximum for 10 wt% composite and minimum for 40 wt% composite. In sliding wear mode, the exposed WF particles caused maximum roughening of steel counterface in the case of composite containing higher concentration of WF particles. Hence, they exhibited a higher value of specific wear rate. PO-LYM.
