Polycarbonate (PC) /graphene nanocomposite was prepared using multilayer graphene (MLG) with loadings of 0.5, 1, and 3 wt% via melt mixing process. Morphological, structural, and thermal properties of the PC/MLG nanocomposites are investigated to look into the influence of MLG on the nanocomposite. A significant increase (∼6.4°C) in glass transition temperature is observed upon the addition of 3 wt% of MLG into the polycarbonate matrix. This increase in glass transition temperature may be due to the interaction between the MLG and polycarbonate polymer matrix. The specific heat capacity of pure PC and PC/MLG nanocomposites varies linearly with temperature below their glass transition. Upon the addition of MLGs, the overall thermal stability of PC/MLG nanocomposites increases with MLG loadings. A maximum increase about 29.23°C in T onset of thermal decomposition is observed in PC/MLG nanocomposite having 3 wt% of MLG loading. The activation energy ( Ea) of thermal decomposition is also calculated by kinetic analysis of thermal decomposition of the PC/MLG nanocomposites using Horowitz–Metzger and Broido’s methods.

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized by bioreduction method using aqueous extracts of Boesenbergia rotunda as reducing and stabilizing agents. Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometer was utilized to monitor the qualitative formation of AgNPs. The UV-Vis spectrum showed that the spherical AgNPs with diameter of 20-40 nm were formed. The antifugal activity of synthesized AgNPs was investigated using Candida albicans, which was found that the synthesized AgNPs could be used as effective growth inhibitors. The influence of the incorporation of prepared AgNPs on thermal properties of the acrylic denture base material was investigated. Glass transition temperature of filled acrylic resins was studied using the dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA). The temperature sweeps were performed with tension mode. Thermogravimetry analysis (TGA) was used to examine effect of AgNP concentration and thermocycling (1250, 2500, 5000, and 10000 cycles) on thermal stability of AgNP filled acrylic resin denture base materials. Glass transition temperature (Tg) of the acrylic resins slightly increase with increasing AgNP contents. TGA results indicated that AgNP retarded thermal degradation of acrylic resin denture material, and thermocycling did not affect thermal stability of AgNP filled acrylic resin denture material.

Copolymers of N-[(4-bromo-3,5-difluorine) phenyacrylamide (BDPA), with methyl methacrylate (MMA) were synthesized in N,N-Dimethylformamide at 75±1°C using 2,2-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as an initiator with different monomer-to-monomer ratios in the feed. The copolymers were characterized by FTIR and 1H NMR spectra. The glass transition temperature of the copolymers decreases with increase in BDPA content. The thermogravimetric analysis of the polymers showed that the thermal stability of the copolymer decreases with BDPA content.

Modification of surface of natural fibers by high energy electron beam irradiation (6 MeV) is a process for enhancing the adhesion between fiber and matrix. Composites reinforced with natural fiber have gained a prominent place in the field of research and innovation due to the advantages such as low cost, light weight and environment friendly factors. We have studied the thermal properties such as thermal degradation and crystallinity behavior of biodegradable composites using biodegradable polymer poly (lactic) acid (PLA) and fiber of luffa cylindrica (LC) fabricated by using injection molding technique. First, reinforcement LC fibers are irradiated with electron beam of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 and 10.0 Gy using 6 MeV linear accelerator at room temperature in presence of air. The thermal properties like glass transition temperature [Formula: see text], cold crystallization temperature [Formula: see text], melting peak temperature [Formula: see text] and thermal stability of the composites are studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in the temperature range from 30[Formula: see text]C to 250[Formula: see text]C and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in temperature range from 20[Formula: see text]C to 700[Formula: see text]C. The variation of these properties in response to the irradiation dose is analyzed in detail. It is observed that with increase in irradiation dose, glass transition temperature and crystallization temperature increase. However, the thermal stability of the composites is found to increase with increase in irradiation dose.

There is a demand to improve the thermal stability of epoxy molding resins used in the power module of SiC power chips operating at temperatures of 200°C or more. This paper describes a technique for increasing the thermal stability of the resin by decreasing molecular motion through the addition of nanofiller. The experimental results showed that the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the epoxy resin increased by approximately 30°C when the silica nanofiller was added. The epoxy resin added nanofiller was investigated in order to achieve the operation temperature 200°C of power module.

AbstractA p-cyanophenol and allylamine based benzoxazine has been synthesized and characterized. This benzoxazine has nitrile and allyl functionalities that can polymerize, resulting in a highly crosslinked material. The DSC spectra of novel benzoxazine monomer reveal that incorporation of the nitrile and allyl group greatly decreases the ring-opening temperature of oxazine rings (140°C). The IR spectra of curing process indicate that the polymerization of oxazine ring accompany with the curing reaction of allyl and nitrile groups. Benzoxazine monomers with one or none of the two functionalities were also prepared to study structure effect on thermal properties of resulted polymer. The comparison of results confirms that introducing the two functionalities improved glass transition temperature (238 °C), thermal stability of polybenzoxazine (T5%=340 °C), and char yield (57%).

Amorphous Fe75Si20-xB5Mxpowders with M= Ti, Ta or Zr andx= 0 and 5 were synthesized by wet mechanical alloying, using benzene as a surfactant. The thermal stability of the Fe-Si-B alloy increases by introducing transition metals. The replacement of 5% Si with Ti, Ta or Zr leads to an increase of the crystallization temperature. It was found that the replacement of 5% Si with Zr increases the crystallization temperature with 115 °C, and also reveals a glass transition temperature around 580 °C.
