Thermal and Crystallization Properties of HDPE and HDPE/PP Blends Modified with DCP

open access: yesAdvances in Polymer Technology, 2013
ABSTRACTThe effect of peroxide on the thermal and crystallization properties of high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) and HDPE/polypropylene (PP) blends has been investigated using differential scanning calorimetry and X‐ray diffraction techniques (XRD). Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) was also employed to study the molecular weight distribution (MWD ...

Impact of Chitosan Incorporation on PBAT Composite: Thermal, Viscoelastic, Mechanical, and Morphological Properties

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The abstract explains the impact of various concentrations of chitosan on PBAT composite. Indeed, the composite is produced at increasing concentrations of chitosan (10%, 20%, and 30%). The decrease in the tensile strength with increased conc. of chitosan was recorded. Furthermore, the same impact was recorded for TGA analysis.
