The SPE Library contains thousands of papers, presentations, journal briefs and recorded webinars from the best minds in the Plastics Industry. Spanning almost two decades, this collection of published research and development work in polymer science and plastics technology is a wealth of knowledge and information for anyone involved in plastics.
The SPE Library is just one of the great benefits of being an SPE member! Are you taking advantage of all of your SPE Benefits?
Nanoindentation studies show that incorporating functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes into polymethylmethacrylate hardens it and improves its elastic modulus.
Supercritical carbon dioxide used as a processing aid in the generation of single-screw melt-compounded nylon 6/organoclay nanocomposites yields composites with superior mechanical properties.
Maleated acrylonitrile styrene toughens polyamide 6 blends more than maleated ethylene-1-octene, but has less of an effect on the tensile strength and Young's modulus.
Maryam Fereydoon, Seyed H. Tabatabaei, Abdellah Ajji, May 2014
Incorporating clay nanoparticles into MXD6 nylon reduces its permeability to oxygen while enhancing its yield stress and tensile modulus, making it potentially superior to existing materials for food packaging.
Ghaus Rizvi, Usman Saeed , Kashif Hussain, May 2014
Glass fiber-reinforced high-density polyethylene composite increases in strength as the fiber orientation increases in anisotropy, which could lead to stronger composite materials.
Ruth Marlene Campomanes Santana, Ademir Jose Zattera, Matheus Poletto, April 2014
The boiling temperature and chain length of natural oils used as coupling agents strongly affect the interfacial adhesion and, consequently, the thermal stability of recycled polypropylene wood flour composites.
Rosario Elida Suman Bretas, Aline Bruna da Silva, Vinicius Chimello, Uttandaraman Sundararaj , Ali Sarvi, April 2014
Core-shell nanofibers, electrospun from a blend of polymers and multiwalled carbon nanotubes, form semiconductive mats that are expected to be highly piezoelectric.
Devendra Kumar, Prasun Roy , Chitra Rajagopal, Surekha Parthasarathy, Saurabh Chaudhary, April 2014
Reinforcing with microspheres avoids the need for solvent removal and improves impact strength and fracture toughness without compromising tensile properties.
Saul Sanchez-Valdes , Edgar N. Cabrera-Alvarez, Luis F. Ramos-DeValle, April 2014
Methods for modifying magnesium hydroxide with triethoxyvinylsilane improve the compatibility between the nanocomposite materials, but not the flame retardancy.
Post-molding annealing increases the degree of crystallinity in injection-molded poly(lactic acid) components and improves their mechanical and heat resistance performance.
Ehsan Nazarzadeh Zare, Moslem Mansour Lakouraj, March 2014
A nanocomposite was synthesized by emulsion polymerization to improve the processability, conductivity, antioxidant activity, and heavy metal ion-removal capabilities of the parent conducting polymer.
