Biodegradation of low density polyethylene (LDPE) by certain indigenous bacteria and fungi
International Journal of Environmental Studies, 2019Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is an environmental problem because it is discarded randomly, and because in dumpsites, it does not readily degrade. This study reports evidence of successful biodegradation by two fungal species (Aspergillus flavus MCP5 ...

Rheological and Thermal Properties of Blends of Recycled LDPE and Virgin LDPE
Advanced Materials Research, 2013Blends of recycled LDPE and LDPE were prepared by the twin-screw extruder at different ratios. Recycled LDPE was used as matrix in this work, LDPE was used to improve the properties of RLDPE. Thermal and rheological properties of the blends were carefully evaluated and compared with pure LDPE.

Electrical treeing in LDPE nanocomposite materials
2009 IEEE Conference on Electrical Insulation and Dielectric Phenomena, 2009This work deals with the inception and the growth of electrical treeing inside different Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) nanocomposites. Two nanoflllers were adopted: sepiolite and montmorillonite. Both nanoflllers belong to the family of silicate clay minerals but have different aspect ratio. The nanocomposites have been prepared by melt dispersion of

Morphology‐properties relationship in ternary polyamide‐6/ldpe/modified ldpe blends: Part II
Polymer International, 1991AbstractGrafting of butyl acrylate‐maleic anhydride copolymer on to LDPE was carried out by a solution polymerization technique. All the PA‐6/LDPE/LDPE‐g‐(BuA‐co‐MA) blends were prepared by a two‐step melt mixing technique. The blends were characterized by their morphology, mechanical properties and water absorption.

LDPE phase composition in LDPE/Cu composites using thermal analysis and FTIR spectroscopy
Journal of Applied Spectroscopy, 2011Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) films with different copper contents were prepared from solu-tion. The TGA (thermogravimetric analysis) results show that the presence of copper particles can im-prove the thermal stability of the composite since a maximum increment of 14°C is obtained compared with the pure LDPE in this experiment.

AbstractRubberwood flour and cellulose have been plasticized by cyanoethylation and then blended with low‐density polyethylene (LDPE). A small quantity of epoxy functionalized polyethylene i.e., polyethylene‐co‐glycidyl methacrylate (PEGMA) has been added to further enhance the mechanical properties. The mechanical properties were measured according to
