Composites, blends, and polymer membranes are all examples of processes that may
benefit from response surface methodology (RSM) to optimize material characteristics. RSM …

Graphene is widely incorporated into rubber matrices to enhance mechanical, electrical, and
thermal properties in nanocomposites. However, its hydrophobicity and lack of …

This study compares the reinforcing effects of graphene nanoplatelets (GNP), graphene
oxide (GO), and halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) in polypropylene (PP) based nanocomposites …

Existing models are unacceptable for the modulus of nanocomposites, because they
disregard the interphase section. In the present work, the interphase features (depth and …

The study aims to fabricate and characterize polyester-nanoclay nanocomposites using
different weight percentages of nanoclay. Nanoclay is mixed into polyester resin using a …

In this article, mechanical and fracture properties of two types of nanoparticles, namely
fumed silica (FS) and halloysite nanotube filled polypropylene (PP) toughened with two …

The current study presents a facile yet efficient strategy to the recycling of waste textiles into
cost-effective products to reduce environmental pollution. Specifically, the composites were …

In developing countries, the importation of synthetic ceramic particles for particulate
reinforcement of metal matrixes is costly, so locally sourced and sustainable alternatives are …

This study aimed to enhance the interfacial interaction within NBR/PP blends through
physical compatibilization. Epoxidized natural rubber (ENR) and maleic anhydride-grafted …

The thermal and mechanical properties of polypropylene-wollastonite composite drawn
fibers were optimized via experiments selected with the Box-Behnken approach. The …
