Electrospun poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) nanofibrous were prepared by electrospinning. Various concentration of polyurethane (PU) were added to PVC solution for plasticization of the electrospun nanofibrous. The pristine and plasticized nanofibrous were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), differencial thermal analysis (DTA), and thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), respectively. Thermal properties form DTA and TGA results indicated that the addition of PU decreased glass transition temperature (Tg) of PVC and increased heat resistance of PVC nanofiber. The dielectric constant of plasticized nanofibrous measured using precision LCR meter indicated that the membrane were dense.

Various electrospun epoxized natural rubber / poly (vinyl chloride) (ENR/PVC) blend nonwoven membranes were prepared by electrospinning technique. Various concentration of epoxidized natural rubber (ENR) solution in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) were directly added to PVC solution for plasticization of the electrospun nanofibrous. Differencial thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), fourier transfrom infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize the pristine and plasticized nanofibrous. DTA results indicated that the addition of ENR resulted in the shifting of glass transition temperature (Tg) towards lower temperatures. The blending of PVC with ENR is thermodynamically incompatible.

Abstract The aim of this paper is the valorisation of fibres obtained from chicken feathers in developing new poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) biocomposites. Feather fibres were first characterized by thermogravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy. Then, semi-rigid and flexible PVC biocomposites were prepared by varying the fibre (5, 10 and 15 wt %) and plasticizer (15, 30, 45, 60 wt %) contents. The density, mechanical, thermal and morphological properties of the composites were investigated. The water absorption was determined at two temperatures (23 and 60°C). The results showed the influence of fibre and plasticizer contents on the considered properties.

Novel extracted natural stabilizer for the polymer was investigated in this study. The natural anti-aging was extracted from plants and it is demonstrated that this type of stabilizers are suitable for biodegradable polymers. Gynostemma pentaphyllum (0.01–0.03 wt%) were extracted and added to the poly(vinyl chloride) blend. The achieved polymeric films were exposed to an accelerated UV light aging process for 300 hours at ambient temperature. The efficiency of tested natural stabilizer was linked to blank PVC films. FTIR spectroscopy, weight loss, electronic microscope and scanning electron microscopy were performed. Using small amount of natural stabilizer is significantly beneficial because it does not influence the PVC properties.

Oleic acid-modified CuS nanoparticles were chemically synthesized. The tribological properties of surface modified and unmodified CuS nanoparticles as additives in the hybrid polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)/Kevlar fabric/phenolic composite were investigated in detail. The experimental results indicated that the incorporation of modified CuS nanoparticles improved the antiwear ability of the fabric/phenolic composite at varied loads and environmental temperatures. The reasons for the enhanced wear properties of the fabric/phenolic composite filled with surface-modified CuS nanoparticles were discussed based on the results of scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.

The effect of different load, revolving speed ,content of Ti(C,N) and sintering process on the friction coefficient and wear rate of Ti(C,N)/Fe composites was investigated systemically. Besides, the wear morphology of Ti(C,N)/Fe composites were researched with an environment scanning electron microscopy(SEM),and the phase composition were studied by X-ray diffraction(XRD).The research shows that the wear mechanism of Ti(C,N)/Fe composites are abrasive wear and adhesive wear.
