Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The growing impacts of climate change and energy scarcity demand environmentally sustainable refrigeration solutions. This study investigates eco‐friendly refrigerants (R152a, R290 and R600a) and their optimized ternary mixture as alternatives to R134a. Four blend compositions were analysed using experimental testing and REFPROP 10.0 modelling

A Kinetic Framework for the Pyrolysis of Poly(Ether‐Ketone‐Ketone) (PEKK)
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.Crosslinking influences poly(ether‐ether‐ketone) (PEKK) pyrolysis. ABSTRACT Research to date on the thermal degradation of poly(ether‐ketone‐ketone) (PEKK) has largely been limited to low temperatures or analysis as part of a composite. Herein, we investigate the pyrolysis kinetics of neat PEKK from 480°C to 1000°C and characterize the degradation by ...

Impact of Seasonal Composition on the Long‐Term Performance of Post‐Consumer Recycled Polypropylene
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.Ten batches of post‐consumer polypropylene recyclate were examined over a period of 15 months. Despite identical MFR and density specifications, there were significant differences in their composition, affecting mechanical performance. Elongation at break and crack resistance varied particularly strongly.
