Leveraging Life Cycle Assessment for Informing Packaging Eco‐Design and Eco‐Modulation

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eco‐modulation is designed to promote the adoption of eco‐design. However, in practice, its application is mostly concentrated on end‐of‐life (EoL) optimization. This study addresses the gap by proposing a framework to assess product–packaging systems as integrated units throughout the full life cycle.

Effect of Cross-Linking on the Electrical Properties of LDPE and its Lightning Impulse Ageing Characteristics

open access: yes, 2011
Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is commonly used within high voltage cable insulation. It has improved thermal and mechanical resistance compared to normal low density polyethylene (LDPE).

Biodegradability of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and Discovery of LDPE-Degrading Microbes

open access: yesNIPPON GOMU KYOKAISHI, 2007
Three types of low density polyethylene (LDPE)-degrading microbes were discovered, and unambiguous evidence for biodegradation of LDPE was presented. Pieces of LDPE film, buried and biodegraded, and their surrounding soil were used as the source of microbes.

Quantitative Model of Internal Analyzer Scattering in a Hemispherical Electron Analyzer and Its Application to Improve the Accuracy of the Transmission Function

open access: yesSurface and Interface Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Internal scattering within hemispherical electron analyzers (HEA) is common when operating at low pass energies, where the instrument resolution of X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Auger electron spectroscopy experiments are at their best.

Electrical and Mechanical Properties of new Recyclable Power Cable Insulation Materials based upon Polyethylene Blends

open access: yes, 2011
Chemically crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) has been used as electrical insulation for power cables since the 1970s due to its favourable combination of electrical and mechanical properties.

Microplastic Detectability Investigation in Soils Using X‐Ray Microtomography

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT X‐ray microtomography (microCT) is a promising tool for investigating microplastic (MP) contamination in soils, offering non‐destructive 3D visualization and quantitative analysis of particles embedded in complex matrices. This study evaluated its applicability by mixing plastic fragments (PET, PEHD, PS, and PP) with humus‐rich and sandy soils

A Bootstrap Lasso + Partial Ridge Method to Construct Confidence Intervals for Parameters in High-dimensional Sparse Linear Models

open access: yes, 2020
Constructing confidence intervals for the coefficients of high-dimensional sparse linear models remains a challenge, mainly because of the complicated limiting distributions of the widely used estimators, such as the lasso.

New approaches in the engineering and characterization of macromolecular interfaces across the length scales: applications to hydrophobic and stimulus responsive polymers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The aim of the present Thesis is to enhance characterization and surface engineering approaches to test and control physico-chemical changes on modified hydrophobic (LDPE and PDMS) and stimulus-responsive (PFS) polymers across different length scales ...
