Selective Functionalization of MWCNTs: Enhancing Wear Mechanisms and Friction‐Induced Graphitization in Epoxy Composites

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
Incorporating 0.3 wt.% COOH‐functionalized MWCNTs, well dispersed via ultrasonication, into epoxy significantly enhances tribological and mechanical performance, reducing wear by 82% and COF by 32%. During sliding, friction breaks down MWCNTs into graphitic fragments, which are slowly released, forming a protective tribofilm.

Poly(Lactic Acid) Processability Treatment Through Electron Beam Irradiation: Optimization of Dose and Crosslinking Agent Amount

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study optimizes the processability of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) by using electron beam irradiation combined with trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) as a crosslinking agent. The optimized conditions modify PLA's rheological, thermal, and mechanical properties, improving its foamability in PLA/polyethylene blends.
