Since the first publications of large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) responses of
polymeric materials in the 1960s, different approaches have been developed to express …

Blends of polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) have always been the subject of
intense reasearch for encouraging polymer waste recycling while producing new materials …

Poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)(PBAT) foams display serious shrinkage problems
when supercritical CO 2 is utilized as the blowing agent. In this work, a series of fully …

Soy protein isolate (SPI) is often used in food processing due to the high water holding
capacity and high stability. This paper explored the effect of heat treatment (HT) on the …

The recyclability of opaque PET, which contains TiO2 nanoparticles, has not been as well-
studied as that of transparent PET. The objective of this work is to recycle post-consumer …

Strain hardening of polymer melts is able to improve the uniformity of items in processing
operations with elongational deformation. Of particular interest in this aspect is the …

Reactive processing on conventional poly (ethylene terephthalate)(PET) with the
combination of pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and triglycidyl isocyanurate (TGIC) was …

Thermoplastic polyether ester elastomer (TPEE) has been reacted with different multi-
functional group modifiers, such as 2, 2′-bis (2-oxazoline)(2, 2′-BOZ) and triglycidyl …

Brief intervals of shear prior to a temperature quench accelerate crystallization, resulting in
much smaller spherulites. Crystallization kinetics of five commercial linear isotactic …

The shear and elongational rheology of linear and pom-pom shaped polystyrene (PS)
blends was investigated experimentally and modeled using constitutive models such as the …
