The paper reports an experimental investigation on the mechanical and thermal properties of multifunctional composite laminates integrated with microencapsulated phase change materials. The different microstructures were ...
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 ...
Improvement of thermal conductivity of paraffin by adding expanded graphite
(
SAGE Publications Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
This paper investigated the use of graphite with different configuration designs to improve the thermal energy storage of phase change material systems. Two types of graphite have been combined with paraffin in order to ...
Effect of two types of graphene nanoplatelets on the physico-mechanical properties of linear low-density polyethylene composites
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2016 , Article)
The influence of two types of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) on the physico-mechanical properties of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) was investigated. The addition of these two types of GNPs - designated as grades ...
