Study of the dynamic fragility of polymer nanocomposites: Correlation with damping

Polymer Composites, Volume 44, Issue 9, Page 5619-5632, September 2023., 2023
The dynamic fragility and activation energy were calculated and analyzed on the basis of the dynamic mechanical data of a series of polymer nanocomposites. A general trend of a decreasing dynamic fragility with increasing Tg was found. No monotonic effect of the nanofiller loading on the fragility was detected. Abstract In this work, an extensive study

Mechanical and thermal properties of recycled polyethylene/surface treated hemp fiber bio‐composites

Polymer Composites, Volume 44, Issue 8, Page 4976-4992, August 2023., 2023
This study presents the production of economic, mechanically, and thermally stable polymer composites via their sustainable and reusable components with an environmentally friendly approach. Abstract Hemp is a good option for polyethylene additives because of its high cellulose and fibrous content. This study aims to modify natural hemp fibers with the

Recent trends in nanocomposite packaging films utilising waste generated biopolymers: Industrial symbiosis and its implication in sustainability

IET Nanobiotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 127-153, May 2023., 2023
Utilisation of residual biomass could act as green and sustainable approach to lessen the waste burden on Earth and fulfiling the demand for bio‐based goods. Using waste as a raw material through industrial symbiosis should be taken into account as one of the strategies to achieve more economic and environmental value through inter‐firm collaboration ...

The influence of alkaline treatment on the mechanical performance of geopolymer composites reinforced with Brazilian malva and curaua fibers

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 106, Issue 1, Page 339-353, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Lignocellulosic fibers obtained from the curaua (Ananas erectifolius) and malva (Malva sylvestris) plants in Brazil can be used as suitable reinforcements for geopolymers (GPs) owing to their high strength, ready regional availability, and low cost.

High energy ballistic and fracture comparison between multilayered armor systems using non-woven curaua fabric composites and aramid laminates

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2017
For personal protection against high kinetic energy projectiles, multilayered armor systems (MAS) are usually the best option. They combine synergistically the properties of different materials such as ceramics, composites and metals. In the present work,
