An improved understanding of a filler's surface properties is important for determining the
most effective polymer reinforcement fillers. In this work, the surface characteristics of two …

This paper constitutes an original and new methodology for the determination of the surface
properties of carbon fibers in two forms, namely, oxidized and untreated, using the inverse …

In the last 40 years, many research works have been devoted to the characterization of the
surface properties of solid materials, and especially to the determination of the dispersive …

Cellulose fibers were first functionalized on their surface by silanization with
trichloromethylsilane in an optimized gas–solid reaction, and the occurrence of the reaction …

The objective of this study was to use dynamic contact angle (DCA) analysis and inverse
gas chromatography (IGC) to probe the surface-chemical changes in wood pulp fibers …

Glass beads as model fillers were characterized by inverse gas chromatography (IGC)
according to the Lewis acid–Lewis base (donor–acceptor) concepts as adapted by Fowkes …

This work concerns the surface characterization of poly (p-phenylene terephthalamide)(
PPTA) fibers, either with or without finish, and submitted or not to washing with acetone or to …

Unbleached TMP spruce fibers were stepwise delignified by KMnO 4/H 2 SO 4 and five
partly delignified samples were obtained. Fibers were characterized in terms of carboxylic …

The surface characterizations of the WFK16000 standard cotton by dispersive, specific and
total surface energy heterogeneity profiles with surface energy distributions and acid–base …

With the aim to enhance interfacial adhesion of a hydrophobic polymer matrix and cellulosic
fibers and fillers, chemical surface modifications with silane coupling agents are performed …
