Engineering behavior of sand-EPS beads lightweight fills

open access: yes, 2008
Lightweight fills of sand-EPS beads were formed by blending sands with EPS beads in proportions.They could be used as lightweight geomaterials/fills suitable for various infrastructures,e.g.,embankments,backfills and replacing materials.To study their ...

Physicochemical properties, fermentative profile, microbiological quality, and pathogen contamination of baled silage during long‐term storage

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Baled silage is expanding in Mediterranean regions due to climate change and demand for high‐quality forage; therefore, evaluating the effects of long‐term storage on microbiological and fermentative quality is essential. RESULTS In this study, 115 baled silages were sampled from different farms at 30, 60, 90, 180, and 270 days ...

Effect of expanded polystyrene content and press temperature on the properties of low-density wood particleboard

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2020
In this study, three-layer low-density (about 400 kg/m3) particleboards consisting of a mixture of wood particles and expanded polystyrene (EPS) were manufactured. EPS bead was incorporated in the core layer as a light filler.

Theory of Supercritical Coupling and Generalized Bound States in the Continuum

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
We develop a general theory of supercritical coupling and generalized bound states in the continuum (gBICs), revealing how interference between radiative and absorptive channels enables quality factors beyond conventional material‐loss limits. The framework unifies non‐Hermitian mode coupling, causality‐driven reactive interactions, and interference ...

Mechanically robust biochar‐modified polystyrene foam with enhanced flame retardancy using halogen‐free additives

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Halogen‐free biocomposite polystyrene foams were fabricated via pilot‐scale supercritical CO2 extrusion using expandable graphite, melamine polyphosphate, biochar, and recycled polymer. The optimized formulation exhibited refined cellular morphology, enhanced flame retardancy (limiting oxygen index of 25%, rapid self‐extinguishing), and improved ...

Evaluating the quality of lightweight concrete made from coated EPS aggregates using ultrasonic pulse velocity [PDF]

open access: yes
A prevalent variant of lightweight concrete is the type that incorporates ExpandedPolystyrene (EPS) as part of its primary aggregate. Despite its lightweight nature,the utilisation of EPS material have a detrimental impact on the overall quality ...

Impact of Commercial Polyolefin Architecture and Composition on Its Ability to Compatibilize High‐Density Polyethylene/Isotactic Polypropylene Blends

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This research elucidates the relationship between the molecular structure of commercially available ethylene–propylene copolymers and an ethylene/1‐olefin copolymer and its ability to compatibilize high‐density polyethylene/isotactic polypropylene blends. These findings indicate that the compatibilization of these blends with random copolymers benefits
