Effect of fibre treatments on interfacial shear strength of hemp fibre reinforced polylactide and unsaturated polyester composites [PDF]

, 2011
Surface treatment of hemp fibres was investigated as a means of improving interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of hemp fibre reinforced polylactide (PLA) and unsaturated polyester (UPE) composites. Fibres were treated with sodium hydroxide, acetic anhydride,

Biopolymer‐Coated Paper Composites for Sustainable Packaging

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventional plastic packaging, though dominant in food and flexible applications, poses serious environmental concerns due to its persistence and limited recyclability. To address this challenge, this study develops bio‐based coated paper composites as sustainable alternatives. Paper, while biodegradable, lacks adequate barrier properties. To

Preparation and Performance Evaluation of a Self‐Generated Particle Plugging Agent Based on Thermosetting Resin

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A thermosetting in situ curing resin microsphere system has been developed. It has controllable phase transition time and particle size. This system addresses the current challenges of low strength, shear susceptibility, and short phase transition time in polymer microsphere blockers and thermoplastic particle blockers.
