Fire properties of styrenic polymer–clay nanocomposites based on an oligomerically-modified clay [PDF]
An oligomerically-modified clay has been used to fabricate nanocomposites with styrenic polymers, such as polystyrene, high-impacted polystyrene, poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) and acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene by melt blending. The clay dispersion was

Síntese e caracterização de nanocompósitos de poliestireno/hidroxissal lamelar
Polystyrene/layered hydroxide salt (LHS) modified with sodium dodecyl sulfate was synthesized by in situ polymerization. The materials synthesized were characterized by gravimetry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry analyses (TGA), differential ...

Organic compounds associated with microplastic pollutants in New Jersey, U.S.A. surface waters
Extensive manufacturing and ubiquitous use in every sector of today’s society has resulted in plastics being detected in all terrestrial and aquatic environments examined to date. However, the pervasiveness of small, potentially invisible, microplastics,

Mechanical testing of polystyrene/polystyrene laser welds
Abstract Properties of polystyrene/polystyrene (PS/PS) diode laser (808 nm) welded lap-joints were evaluated. First, the reptation time of the selected PS was determined using plate/plate oscillatory rheometry. The reptation time was critically dependent on temperature, but as long the temperature was above 200 °C, the reptation time was less than 8 ...

Nanoplastics: Status and Knowledge Gaps in the Finalization of Environmental Risk Assessments
Nanoplastics (NPs) are particles ranging in size between 1 and 1000 nm, and they are a form of environmental contaminant of great ecotoxicological concern.

A Self-Assembled Microlensing Rotational Probe [PDF]
A technique to measure microscopic rotational motion is presented. When a small fluorescent polystyrene microsphere is attached to a larger polystyrene microsphere, the larger sphere acts as a lens for the smaller microsphere and provides an optical ...
