The accelerated thermal aging of elastomeric compounds, reinforced or not, has received
considerable attention from researchers. It is interesting because aging is a classic problem …

The complex viscosity of poly (lactic acid)(PLA)/poly (ethylene oxide)(PEO) blends and
PLA/PEO/carbon nanotubes (CNT) biosensor as a function of frequency is measured and …

This study examines the aggregation/agglomeration of layered clay in polymer
nanocomposites and discusses their influences on nanoparticle characteristics and …

This article focuses on the effects of incomplete interfacial adhesion on the yield strength

Abstract The Hui-Shia model, which considers the complete stress transfer between polymer
matrix and particles (perfect interfacial adhesion), overpredicts the Young's modulus of …

Quercus resinosa leaves are rich in polyphenol compounds, however, they are unstable to
several chemical and physical factors that limit their activity. Several methods have been …

Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) and polypropylene-grafted maleic anhydride (PP-g-MA) were
studied for their effects in blends of polystyrene (PS) and polyolefin elastomer (POE). The …

The mixture design method was used to model the physical and mechanical properties of
ethylene-octene copolymer (EOC) nanocomposite containing organically modified …
