Thermal and mechanical properties of blends of LDPE and EVA crosslinked by electron beam radiation

Electrical, Mechanical, and Thermal Properties of LDPE Graphene Nanoplatelets Composites Produced by Means of Melt Extrusion Process

“…The degree of crystallization was calculated by the following equation: χc(%crystallinity)=ΔHmΔH0*100% where: ΔHm is the melting enthalpy, and ΔH0 is a theoretical value of the melting enthalpy of 100% crystalline LDPE. The value ΔH0 = 293 J/g was used in a degree of crystallinity calculations [20].…”

Influence of moisture and CO2 on the material behavior of thermoplastic elastomers for beer bottle closures

“…The surface morphologies of the TPE samples were studied using a JOEL JSM -7500F (Tokyo, JAPAN) scanning electron microscope (SEM) at an accelerating voltage of 5 kV and a probe current of approximately 10 μA. The elastomer surfaces were coated with gold for 90 s at a at a coating thickness of 2 nm using a sputter coater (Quorum Q300T, East Sussex, UK) for enhanced conductivity to reduce static loading during the SEM experiments.…”

“…Existing researches have only focused on the thermomechanical properties of materials [5,[7][8][9][10]. Glass transition temperature (T g ) values determined with DMA, DSC methods are typically used to judge the expected behavior of the actual components.…”

Electric production of high-quality fuels via electron beam irradiation under ambient conditions

“…Because of the effective interaction between electrons and molecules, it not only breaks down large molecules, but also induces special chemistry, and produces very useful products. Its many applications are being developed including wastewater remediation, 3,6 food and medical device sterilization, [7][8][9][10] polymer crosslinking 11,12 and petroleum upgrading. 13,14 Electron beam induced chemistry is unique in multiple ways.…”
