Interfacial compatibilization in ternary polymer nanocomposites: Comparing theory and experiments
International audienceIn this work, we examine binary and ternary nanocomposites of poly(methyl methacrylate) grafted silica nanoparticles (PMMA-NP), in poly(styrene-ran-acrylonitrile) (SAN), and poly(methyl methacrylate) matrices as a platform to ...

Demotivating Semi-Compatibilism
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 ...

Schematic representation of the preparation, photocuring, and structure‐property evaluation of unmodified starch‐filled composites based on an ionic‐hydrogen‐bonded MAA‐TEOA reactive medium. ABSTRACT This study investigates a water‐free photocurable composite system based on an ionic methacrylic acid (MAA)–triethanolamine (TEOA) reactive medium that ...

Compatibilization of Polymer Blends by Ionic Bonding
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.

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 ...
