Thermo‐mechanical, rheological and morphology properties of polypropylene composites: Residual CaCO₃ as a sustainable by‐product

Abstract

This research looked into the possibility of using residual calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) as a by-product of the cane sugar production process combined with polypropylene (PP) to replace commercial CaCO 3 . Using a co-rotating twinscrew extruder, the CaCO 3 /PP composites were made in the following ratios:

Adsorptive removal of methylene blue dye using durian peel waste reinforced polyvinyl alcohol‐based composite membrane

“…22 Registered at 2924 and 2850 cm À1 was corresponded to the stretch of C H group in the cellulose and hemicellulose bands occurring with natural fiber. 23 The stretching vibrations of C C group in the aromatic compounds and C O group in acetyl group of lignin occurred at 1630 and 1260 cm À1 , respectively. 24 The band at 1040 cm À1 indicated the stretch of the C O R or C O H group in esters and alcoholic groups.…”

Aging effects on free vibration and damping characteristics of polymer‐based biocomposites: A review

“…[138] The damping factors of the biocomposites depend upon the factors such as types of fiber, matrix and fiber architecture, modification in the surface of fiber, and incorporation of fillers into the substrate. [139][140][141][142][143][144]…”

Effects of different weaving patterns on thermomechanical and dynamic mechanical properties of Kevlar/pineapple leaf fiber hybrid composites

“…[78][79][80][81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88][89][90][91] These combinations are widely used as more economical options and for enhancing the composite properties. [92][93][94][95][96][97][98][99][100][101][102][103][104][105] Inter-ply and intraply are two types of hybrid composites. Inter-ply hybrid composites are stacked up in two or more layers in homogenous reinforcements while the intra-ply hybrid composites are combined in the same layer.…”
