Recycling of Pretreated Polyolefin-Based Ocean-Bound Plastic Waste by Incorporating Clay and Rubber
Plastic waste found in oceans has become a major concern because of its impact on marine organisms and human health. There is significant global interest in recycling these materials, but their reclamation, sorting, cleaning, and reprocessing, along with

Generation of silicone poly-HIPES with controlled pore sizes via reactive emulsion stabilization
Macrocellular silicone polymers are obtained after solidification of the continuous phase of a PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) emulsion, which contains PEG (polyethylene glycol) drops of sub-millimetric dimensions. Coalescence of the liquid template emulsion

Fischer-style Compatibilism [PDF]
John Martin Fischer’s new collection of essays, Deep Control: Essays on Free Will and Value, constitutes a trenchant defence of his well-known compatibilist approach to moral responsibility (Fischer 1994, 2006; Fischer and Ravizza 1998).1 Predominantly a collection of detailed responses to recent critics, this is not a book for beginners.

Acoustic emission analysis of failure processes in polyethylene and recycled tire rubber blends
In this study, we developed a test method using acoustic emission (AE) to investigate the failure process and degree of compatibility of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) blends filled with ground tire rubber (GTR).

Effect of a compatibilizer on the morphology and properties of polypropylene/polyethylentherephthalate spun fibers [PDF]
Fibers spun by melt spinning of binary and ternary polypropylene/ polyethylenetherephthalate blends have been produced and characterized in order to investigate the effect of a compatibilizer on their morphology and mechanical properties.

High Density Polyethylene/Ground Tire Rubber Composites Compatibilized by Dicumyl Peroxide
ABSTRACT In this study, the thermal behavior of dicumyl peroxide (DCP) was first evaluated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which confirmed a peak decomposition temperature around 172°C, highlighting its incompatibility with standard melt‐mixing techniques for most polyolefins. To overcome this limitation,
