Influence of surface modification of carbon nanotubes on interactions with polystyrene-b-polyisoprene-b-polystyrene matrix and its photo-actuation properties
(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
, 2014 , Article)
The influence of various surface modification of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) on preferential interactions with individual phases of the linear triblock copolymer polystyrene-b-polyisoprene-b-polystyrene (SIS) and ...
Designing dual phase sensing materials from polyaniline filled styrene-isoprene-styrene composites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
The demand for developing oil detectors is ever increasing since the cleanup and recovery from oil spill usually take long time. Here we propose oil sensors made of polyaniline (PANI) filled poly(styrene-isoprene-styrene) ...
Electrically conductive composites based on an elastomeric matrix filled with expanded graphite as a potential oil sensing material
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2014 , Article)
The preparation and properties of electrically conductive polymeric composites based on an elastomer matrix (styrene-isoprene styrene block copolymer) filled with expanded graphite are reported in this paper. The developed ...
Phase change materials based on high-density polyethylene filled with microencapsulated paraffin wax
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
A modified in situ polymerization microencapsulation procedure for the preparation of microcapsules with paraffin wax cores (43 wt.%) and melamine–formaldehyde resin shells having a uniform size distribution and a spherical ...
Improved mechanical properties of recycled linear low-density polyethylene composites filled with date palm wood powder
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Recycled linear low-density polyethylene (RLLDPE) was blended with date palm wood powder to prepare composites in which the concentration of the filler ranged from 10 to 70wt.%. The cross-linking of composites was performed ...
Thermal characterization of polymer matrix composites containing microencapsulated paraffin in solid or liquid state
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
This work focuses on the study of heat transfer mechanisms in composites materials which may be used for Latent Heat Thermal Energy Storage applications. These composites contain phase change material (PCM) which can absorb ...
Viscoelastic and photo-actuation studies of composites based on polystyrene-grafted carbon nanotubes and styrene-b-isoprene-b-styrene block copolymer
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Photoactuating composites based on the linear triblock copolymer polystyrene-b-polyisoprene-b-polystyrene (SIS) were prepared by incorporation of polystyrene-modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-PS). Modification ...
