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.

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.

Melt Processing of Cellulose Acetate for Controlled Release Applications – A Review
This review presents recent developments in the melt‐processing of cellulose acetate (CA). Factors affecting the processability, biodegradability, and mechanical performance of CA are also summarized. Plasticizers, bio‐based polymers (PLA, PBAT & PHBV), and clay nanoparticles are also examined toward enhancing the melt processability and mechanical ...

This study explores the enhancement of polylactic acid (PLA) films through reactive extrusion with polyethylene glycol (PEG)‐based plasticizers and dicumyl peroxide (DCP) as a cross‐linking agent. The process improves mechanical strength, ductility, and thermal stability while reducing plasticizer migration, broadening the potential applications of PLA
