Is compatibility critical in polymer engineering?
Advanced Industrial and Engineering Polymer ResearchThe paper focuses on the necessity for compatibilization in polymer blends and composites due to the differing chemical nature of the components, which causes antagonism on the contacting surfaces. To achieve stable polymer blends and composites with the

Consciousness and Cognition, 2017 Compatibilism is the view that moral responsibility is compatible with determinism. Natural compatibilism is the view that in ordinary social cognition, people are compatibilists. Researchers have recently debated whether natural compatibilism is true. This paper presents six experiments (N = 909) that advance this debate.

Multiscale Modeling Approach of Slot Die Coating of Unidirectional Glass Fiber Fabric
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.2D macroscale and microscale computational fluid dynamic (CFD) models are combined in a multiscale approach to develop a model for slot die coating of glass fiber (GF) fabrics in cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) dispersion as a sizing. For slot die coating models with and without vacuum assist, the model is able to predict stable operating parameters which ...

Compatibilization phenomenon in polymer science and technology: Chemical aspects
Advanced Industrial and Engineering Polymer ResearchPolymer blends are mixtures of two or more macromolecular species – polymers and/or copolymers. They are used to increase the range of properties available from existing polymers without synthesizing new ones, which is time consuming and expensive.

Local Miracle Compatibilism [PDF]
Noûs, 2003 To those people who have not spent much time thinking about the problem of free will, it seems that we frequently have the ability to do otherwise than what we do. Provided I am not subject to any compulsions or coercive forces (addiction, bondage, someone holding a gun to my head, and so on), I am able now to raise my hand, drink some water, read the ...

Fabrication of Polypropylene/CNF Composite Foam by Foam Extrusion With Chemical Blowing Agent
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.Polypropylene/CNF composite foams were fabricated by a foam extrusion process using a chemical foaming method. The addition of CNFs resulted in finer and higher‐density cell structures, even at low chemical blowing agent concentrations. Furthermore, X‐ray CT and SEM observations revealed a unique spike‐like cell structure generated by the penetration ...
