Abstract:The present work is a novel attempt to understand the microstructure of styrene-ethylenebutylene-styrene (SEBS)/polystyrene (PS) blends not only through morphological studies, but also thermal, mechanical and rheological characterizations. SEBS/PS blends containing 10, 30 and 50 wt % PS were processed in a micro-compounder and characterized. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies, with selective staining of the PS phase, revealed the presence of PS as nanometer-sized domains, as well as phase-separated micrometer-sized aggregates. Blends with 30 and 50 wt % PS exhibited a fibrillar microstructure, obeying Hirsch's model of short fiber composites. A remarkable increase in glass transition temperature indicated a strong interaction of the fibrils with SEBS. All blends showed two modes of relaxation corresponding to the two phases. A single mode of relaxation of the PS phase has been attributed to combined effects of the partial miscibility of the added PS, along with the interaction of the fibrils with SEBS. The long relaxation time of the elastomeric phase indicated the tendency of these materials to undergo time-dependent shrinkage in secondary processing operations. An increase in PS content resulted in the lowering of the shear viscosity and energy requirement for mixing, indicating the ease of processing.

“…Results showed the convex columns carried the least load, and the concave columns sustained the most significant load approximately 90 -100% stronger in some cases. Xiong and Mashiur (2016) investigated stitching and laminating methods to reinforce glass yarns in a woven polyethylene (PE) geotextile fabric formwork. Creep investigation showed stitching method provides better tensile behaviour than the laminating method.…”

Fabric Formworks which are made using textile sheets such as Polyolefin, Polyesters/Polyethylene Terephthalate, nylon and Polypropylene are being used instead of conventional formworks in the construction industry. This article summarises significant studies and provides an updated review of references on the structural performance of fabric formworks over the last decade. The survey showed that they could be categorised into seven themes; namely, "Feasibility studies and manufacturing methods of complex structural elements"; "Finite element modelling, structural optimizing and form-finding themes"; "Pneumatic / Vacuumatic formwork theme"; "Durability, sustainability, efficiency and quality improvement"; "Cable-net fabric formwork theme"; "Stayin-place structural formworks theme"; and "Review papers". These categories comprise about 25%, 17%, 15%, 15%, 10%, 6% and 6% of related studies respectively.
