The practical adhesion of maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene (MAH-PE) to galvanised steel was studied using 3-point flexure tests, before and after hydrothermal ageing. Before bonding, the electro-galvanised steel was treated with γ -aminopropyltriethox ...

A high penetration grade bitumen has been blended with up to 50 wt% of two different grades of metallocene catalyzed linear low density polyethylene (m-LLDPE) in order to investigate the potential of these and similar copolymers as a substitute for styrene ...

Nonisothermally fusion bonded butt joints were prepared by overmolding thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) onto isotactic polypropylene (iPP) inserts in order to investigate the effect of processing conditions on the bond strength and interfacial microstructur ...

The photocuring of three different highly functional acrylates—Di-pentaerythritol penta/hexaacrylate (DPHA) and two hyperbranched molecules (HBP), one with a stiff polyester and one with a more flexible polyether structure—was investigated by means of phot ...

This article presents a study on the foam processing of sustainable biocomposites made of polyl(actic acid) (PLA) and functionalized microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) using water as a foaming agent. MFC contains moisture and can be used as a water carrying ...

A novel UV-curable low-stress hyperbranched polymer (HBP) micromolding process is presented for the fast and low-temperature fabrication of hydrophilic microfluidic devices. Process, material and surface properties of the acrylated polyether HBP are also c ...

The structural buildup during reticulation of thermoset systems containing reactive modifiers can strongly influence the final properties of such blends. This was studied by considering the rheological behavior during cure of an epoxy/amine thermoset system blended with reactive dendritic hyperbranched polymers (HBPs). Depending on the chemical structure of the HBP used in the blend, a phase separation could be observed. The onset and offset of the phase separation process could be detected by observing the

The present work is aimed at assessing the feasibility of integrating thermoplastic polypropylene nanocomposite matrices into conventional fiber-reinforced composites based on hybrid textiles that incorporate both the matrix and glass-fiber yarns, in order ...

The influence of the initial configuration of glass mat and polypropylene on the deconsolidation during post-processing of the resulting composite is investigated. Deconsolidation experiments of a classic type of glass mat reinforced thermoplastic (GMT) pr ...

Voids are often present in composite materials and have, as may be expected, negative effects on the mechanical properties. As a consequence, it is regarded to be important to optimise manufacturing techniques of composite materials towards minimum void co ...

Recent investigations of the tensile fracture behaviour of representative glassy and semicrystalline impact-resistant polymers are reviewed, with emphasis on the microdeformation behaviour as revealed by electron microscopy of sections from bulk specimens, where the crack-tip damage zone has been embedded and/or stained under load, and on thin films deformed in situ. The insight that such techniques have provided into the toughening mechanisms is discussed.

The present work aims to enhance the interlaminar toughness of carbon/epoxy composites produced by RTM by modifying the resin with hyperbranched polymers (HBPs). A HBP content of 7.5% in the resin was selected as the best compromise between a slight loss i ...

A moulding process, in particular a bladder inflation moulding process for the production of a composite material based part, said composite material comprising a polymer matrix and reinforcing fibres, wherein at least a portion of external surface of said part is shaped by a corresponding interior surface of a mould. The interior surface of said mould is provided with a polishing. Chromium plating or nickel plating improves smoothness and glossy appearance. The best wave and relief appearance is obtained i

A new extruder design has been developed for the coextrusion of two-layer annular sections. The extruder consists of a conical stator-rotor-stator assembly, which performs extrusion from each side of the rotor. Flow within this assembly is fully three-dimensional, with helicoidal streamlines in the vicinity of the rotor and the die entry region. Fiber orientation is created in a circumferential direction by these helicoidal streamlines; close to the inner and outer surfaces of the tube, the fibers are paral

Liquid composite moulding of Lactam 12 monomer and activating system (APLC12) into satin weave carbon fabrics is investigated, with emphasis on minimising the void content in the final part. The main sources for void formation are identified. The solidific ...

In order to mimic the complex architecture of many bio-materials and synthesize composites characterized by continuously graded composition and mechanical properties, an innovative synthetic strategy making use of magnetic field gradients and based on the ...

The invention is concerned with an integrated process for the manufacture of polymer and/or composite products, comprising the integration of processing operations to achieve a plurality of material conversion steps, such as impregnation, consolidation and bonding, within one single controlled fabrication cycle. The process includes an in-situ final preparation of at least one composite preform at the location of the moulding operation and an integrated moulding operation comprising a step of providing an a

The shear thickening behavior of concentrated suspensions can be exploited to dissipate energy during impact or shear loading. To preserve the consistency of the thickening behavior in practical applications, particle concentration, and dispersion should b ...

The morphology of polymer/nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) composite sheets produced using different techniques and its influence on low strain stiffness were assessed by optical and transmission electron microscopy. Solvent processing led to relatively hom ...

The influence of matrix modification on the interfacial shear strength (IFSS) and the mechanical performance of polypropylene/glass fibre composites is investigated. Two different modifiers were used: a highly reactive hyperbranched polymer grafted polypropylene (HBPgPP) and a maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MAHgPP). The interfacial shear strength increased with the addition of the modifiers, with HBPgPP giving the highest values. To evaluate the effects of the matrix modification on the composite s
