Demotivating Semi-Compatibilism

open access: yesIdeas y Valores, 2009
In this paper, I explore some of the motivations behind John Martin Fischer's semi-compatibilism. Particularly, I look at three reasons Fischer gives for preferring semi-compatibilism to libertarianism. I argue that the first two of these motivations are in tension with each other: the more one is moved by the first motivation, the less one can appeal ...

Compatibilization of Polymer Blends by Ionic Bonding

open access: yes
Chemically dissimilar polymers are rarely miscible due to a specific entropy of mixing that scales as 1/N, where N is the degree of polymerization.

Hemp Hurd/HDPE Thermoplastic Biocomposites: Effects of Oxidized Polyethylene and EPDM Elastomer on Material Performance

open access: yesSPE Polymers, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2026.
Processing of hemp hurd/HDPE‐ based biocomposites. ABSTRACT The biocomposites examined in this study utilize hemp hurd as the lignocellulosic biomass and high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) as the thermoplastic matrix, with a 50 wt.% hurd content. Oxidized polyethylene (OPE) and ethylene–propylene–diene monomer (EPDM) rubber were incorporated at varying ...

Improved mechanical and thermal properties of polypropylene blends based on diethanolamine-plasticized corn starch via in situ reactive compatibilization

open access: yes, 2013
Starch-based polymer blends are able to alleviate the environmental concerns. However, they usually suffer poor mechanical properties. Here, we first prepared plasticized starch using diethanolamine as a reactive plasticizer and then fabricated ...
