Compatibilism, Indeterminism, and Chance [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Institute of Philosophy Supplement, 2018
AbstractMany contemporary compatibilists about free will and determinism are agnostic about whether determinism is true, yet do not doubt that we have free will. They are thus committed to the thesis that free will is compatible with both determinism and indeterminism.

Polycarbonate Vitrimers and Dynamic Co‐Networks From Epoxide/Carbon Dioxide Copolymerization

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates how CO2‐derived poly(propylene carbonate) and poly(cyclohexene carbonate) backbones influence vitrimer thermo‐mechanical behavior. By tuning backbone composition, epoxide crosslinker chemistry and blend ratios, the crosslinked materials span a wide property window, from highly extensible to stiff, glassy networks, establishing an

Effect of the Compatibilizer Upon the Properties of Styrene-butadiene Rubber Organoclay Nanocomposites [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم و تکنولوژی پلیمر, 2013
Nanocomposite vulcunizates based on styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), organoclay and a conventional sulfur curing system were prepared by melt blending process in an internal mixer. In order to study the effects of the type of interfacial compatibilizer on

Gamma Irradiation‐Based Free Radical Grafting of N‐Hydroxyethyl Acrylamide onto Poly[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutyrate]

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates successful gamma‐radiation‐induced grafting of N‐hydroxyethyl acrylamide onto poly[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutyrate], producing substantial changes in material properties. Grafting generated a biphasic, less crystalline structure with enhanced thermal stability, elongation (65%), toughness (378% increase), and exceptional water uptake (610 ...

Thermal and Morphological Analysis of Biocomposite From Multilayer Plastic Waste and Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch Fiber

open access: yesMacromolecular Symposia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB), a byproduct of the palm oil industry, have great potential in the circular economy, particularly for composite material production. Multilayer plastic waste from the bottled water industry presents significant environmental challenges.

Nanostructure refining of polypropylene/nanoclay composite via optimization of compatibilizer and masterbatch parameters [PDF]

open access: yesPolyolefins Journal
The aim of the current study was to first make two compatibilizers, i.e., maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MA), based on a homo-and a block copolymer.

Lichen‐Derived Mineral Residue as a Renewable Particulate Filler in Polylactic Acid Biocomposites: Structure, Melt Rheology, Viscoelastic, and Flexural Behavior

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Lichen residue, a renewable mineral‐organic material, was melt compounded with polylactic acid and triacetin in a twin‐screw extruder. ABSTRACT A lichen‐derived natural material, known as “höllük” in southeastern Turkey, is introduced as a renewable filler for polylactic acid (PLA).

Fischer-style Compatibilism [PDF]

open access: yesAnalysis, 2013
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.
