Compatibilizing Effect of Modified Polypropylene on the Properties of Polypropylene/Organically Modified Layered Silicate Nanocomposites
Abstract: In the present research paper, a series of polypropylene (PP) nanocomposites containing 3, 5, and 7 wt% of an organically modified layered silicate (OM) were prepared via direct melt mixing in the presence of maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (indicated as PP-g-MA, PPMA), and hexamethylenediamine-modified maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (marked as PP-g-HMDA, PPHMDA) as compatibilizing agent at concentration of 10 wt%. Subsequently the influences of the compatibilizer on the morphological, mechanical, …

Flexural Properties of Vetiver Fiber Reinforced Polyethylene Composite are Affected by Processing Parameters
Abstract: Fiber reinforced polymer composites have long been influential in a variety of applications due to their great particular strength and modulus. Vetiver fiber (VF)/thermoplastic composites are an alternative material for solving the environmental pollution problem related to synthetic polymers. The benefits of natural fibers (such as coir, jute, vetiver, calotropis gigantea, flax, hemp, kenaf, etc.) over traditional reinforcing fibers (glass and carbon fiber) are their easy obtainability, renewability, non-corrosive nature, …

Mechanical Behaviour of Natural Reinforced Polymer Composites with Hybrid Additives
Abstract: The implementation of natural fibres is the fast approaching ‘green’ economy based materials that are used in polymer matrix composites that are intended to replace the conventional synthetic polymer composites. Being plenteous fundamentally, natural fibres have been existed the primary form of natural resources for centuries. Considering that mechanical properties of composites are strongly influenced by the quality of the fibre/matrix interface and with eco-friendly properties like excellent energy absorption, …

Study of Dynamic Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Poly(Ether Ether Ketone) Carbon Nanotubes
Abstract: The effect of polyetherimide (PEI) as a compatibilizing agent on the morphology, thermal, electrical and dynamic-mechanical properties of poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK)/single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) nanocomposites, has been investigated for different CNT loadings. After a pre-processing step based on ball milling and premixing under mechanical treatments in ethanol, the samples were prepared by melt extrusion. A more homogeneous distribution of the CNTs throughout the matrix is found for composites containing …

Preparation and Evaluation of Plant-Based Coir Fiber-Reinforced Polypropylene Composites
Abstract: In the present article, unidirectional coir fiber (CF) and alkali-treated CF (ACF) were incorporated in polypropylene (PP) with and without 3-aminopropyl trimethoxy silane (AS) and tetramethoxy orthosilicate (TS) to produce composites by a compression molding technique. The basic properties of PP/CF composites (e.g. tensile strength, tensile modulus, impact strength, and water absorption) have enhanced with increasing CF content. The incorporation of AS and TS after alkali pretreatment for CF composites …

Comparative Experimental Measurement on the Fundamental Properties of Chemically Treated Natural Fibers
Abstract: Plant-derived natural fiber as a reinforcing component can play a prevalent role in the field of fiber reinforced polymer composite due to their obtainability, environmentally friendly, renewability, low- density, and low cost. Golden fiber (jute fiber)/coconut fiber can be a potential candidate to replace the synthetic fiber reinforced polymer composite. The influences of chemical treatments such as mercerization, sodium lauryl sulfate and a combination of mercerization and sodium lauryl sulfate …

Design and Fabrication of Trammel Balls
Abstract: Transportation of water plays a vital role in the survival of a growing population. If the scarcity of water is one major issue, transportation of water using tankers have their own share. Water in a partially filled container, when induced with external energy (motion), generates slosh and surge. Both slosh and surge effects work as a resistive factor during transportation. To eliminate the same, few holes are drilled at pre-desired …

Investigation on the influence of calcium Fluoride and Barium Fluoride on cutting performance during hard turning with minimal fluid application
Abstract: Recently the concept of minimal fluid application has gained attention in metal cutting industry as it has the ability to resemble pure dry turning and at the same time free from all the problems related to large scale use of cutting fluid as in conventional wet turning. Since a very small quantity of cutting fluid is doing cooling and lubrication in minimal fluid application, there must be some performance enhancers …
