Insect damaged wood as a source of reinforcing filler for thermoplastic composites
Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2017 In this study, wood polymer composites were manufactured using insect damaged Eastern Black Sea Fir (A. Nordmanniana) wood as filler. The effects of wood type (sound vs insect damaged) and presence of coupling agent (0% vs 3%) on the flexural, tensile ...

Pulling adsorbed polymers from surfaces with the AFM: stick versus slip, peeling versus gliding
, 2005 We consider the response of an adsorbed polymer that is pulled by an AFM within a simple geometric framework. We separately consider the cases of i) fixed polymer-surface contact point, ii) sticky case where the polymer is peeled off from the substrate ...
