Nitrile rubber (NBR) was thermally aged in air, a commercial lubricating oil, and its
corresponding base oil. During thermal aging, changes in the volatile components of NBR …

Innovative panels suitable for the thermal management of closed systems with potential
applications for buildings have been produced combining an Ethylene-Propylene Diene …

Abstract Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) composed on biomass, paper, textiles, wood, synthetic
polymers and other combustible materials is an alternative energy resource to implement …

A novel in-situ aging evaluation method with high sensitivity was established. This method
allowed simultaneous heating and UV irradiation of a sample under variable atmosphere …

A new approach for the development of carbon composites via a low-temperature
carbonization of elastomer compounds highly filled with various carbon fillers and dispersed …

This contribution investigates the aging property changes and mechanism of nitrile rubber
(NBR) under the combined radiation-thermal environments in the N 2 atmosphere. Aging …

Cellulose nanofibers were produced with waste from the paper industry, in a stone grinder
and were used as filler in elastomeric composites in the acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer …

The binder plays an important role in transmitting loads and maintaining the stability of
paper-based friction materials. Four kinds of binder-based carbon fiber–reinforced paper …

There is paucity of data relating to the free swell properties of composite reinforcement
materials in outdoor applications despite their undesirable tendency to absorb water. In this …

To promote enhanced coordination on environmental issues and to create policies and
programmes that drive sustainable development and improve human well-being, UN …
