Synergistic effects of sepiolite on intumescent flame retardant polypropylene

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2010
In this paper, the effects of sepiolite as a synergistic agent on the flame retardancy of intumescent flame retardant polypropylene (PP/IFR) were studied using the limiting oxygen index (LOI), the UL-94 test, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), laser Raman

Measurement of spin correlation in ttbar production using dilepton final states [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We measure the correlation between the spin of the top quark and the spin of the anti-top quark in (ttbar -> W+ W- b bbar -> l+ nu b l- nubar bbar) final states produced in ppbar collisions at a center of mass energy sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV, where l is an ...

On the sensitivity of the dijet asymmetry to the physics of jet quenching

open access: yes, 2012
The appearance of monojets is among the most striking signature of jet quenching in the context of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. Experimentally, the disappearance of jets has been quantified by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations in terms of the ...

Fire properties of styrenic polymer–clay nanocomposites based on an oligomerically-modified clay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
An oligomerically-modified clay has been used to fabricate nanocomposites with styrenic polymers, such as polystyrene, high-impacted polystyrene, poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) and acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene by melt blending. The clay dispersion was

Search for the Elusive Higgs Boson Using Jet Structure at LHC

open access: yes, 2010
We consider the production of a light non-standard model Higgs boson of order $100~\GEV$ with an associated $W$ boson at CERN Large Hadron Collider. We focus on an interesting scenario that, the Higgs boson decays predominately into two light scalars ...

Synergistic Effects of Titanium-Based MOFs MIL-125 with Intumescent Flame Retardants in ABS Polymer Composites on Flame Retardancy Study

open access: yesFire
The intumescent flame retardant (IFR) technique is an alternative to halogen-based flame retardants for reducing fire hazards in polymers. However, IFR has drawbacks like unsatisfactory flame-retardant efficiency and high loading requirements.

Impact of dead zones on the response of a hadron calorimeter with projective and non-projective geometry

open access: yes, 2011
The aim of this study is to find an optimal mechanical design of the hadronic calorimeter for SiD detector which takes into account engineering as well as physics requirements. The study focuses on the crack effects between two modules for various barrel
