INFLUENCE OF COCONUT SHELL ADDITION ON PHYSICO-MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF WOOD PLASTIC COMPOSITES1

Revista Árvore, 2018
In this study, composites with three types of thermoplastic matrix and cellulosic material in a proportion of 40% were produced. The three thermoplastic matrices were high density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP) and low density polyethylene (LDPE)

Determination of physic and mechanical parameters of high-density polyethylene based on relaxation curves due to the presence of hydroxyapatite and ionizing radiation

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Relatively low physical and mechanical parameters of polymers negatively affect the possibility of using this material everywhere. There are ways to improve the elastic and rheological characteristics of some varieties of polymers: addition of additives ...

Treeing phenomenon of thermoplastic polyethylene blends for recyclable cable insulation materials

AIP Advances, 2017
Owing to its good recyclability and low processing energy consumption, non-crosslinked polyethylene blends (e.g. LLDPE-HDPE blends) are considered as one of potential environmental-friendly substitutions for crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) as cable ...

A Closed‐Loop Recyclable Low‐Density Polyethylene

Advanced Science
Low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) is one of the most important plastics, which is produced unfortunately under extreme conditions. In addition, it consists of robust aliphatic C─C bonds which are challenging to cleave for plastic recycling.
