Cellulose acetate (CA) is a synthetic compound that is derived from the acetylation of cellulose. CA is well known as it has been used for many commercial products such as textiles, plastic films, and cigarette filters. In this research, antibacterial CA composites were produced by addition of aluminum nitride (AlN) at different weight percentage, from 0 wt. % to 20 wt. %. The surface characterization was performed using laser microscope, Raman and FTIR spectroscopy. The mechanical and thermal properties of the composite were analyzed. Although the mechanical strength tended to decrease as the concentration of AlN increased and needed to be optimized, the melting temperature (Tm) and glass transition temperature (Tg) showed a shift toward higher values as the AlN concentration increased leading to an improvement in thermal properties. AlN additions in weight percentages >10 wt. % led to appreciable antibacterial properties against S. epidermidis and E. coli bacteria. Antibacterial CA/AlN composites with higher thermal stability have potential applications as alternative materials for plastic packaging in the food industry.

This chapter deals with the modelling of nanomaterial and nanocomposite mechanical and thermal properties. Enrichment in the technology requires materials having higher thermal properties or higher structural properties. Nanomaterials and nanocomposites can serve this purpose accurately for aerospace or thermal applications and structural applications respectively. The thermal system requires materials having high thermal conductivity while structural system requires materials having high strength. Selection of the material for particular application is very critical and requires knowledge and experience. Al, Cu, TiO2, Al2O3, etc. are considered for thermal applications while epoxy-glass, FRP, etc. are considered for structural applications. Modelling of these nanomaterials and nanocomposites is done with the help of different mathematical models available in the literature. Results show that addition of the nanoparticle/composite in the base material can enhance the thermal and structural properties. Results also show that amount of weight percentage added also affects the properties.

In this study polyurethane (PUR)-nanoclay composites were synthesized using methylene diphenyl diisocyanate, polyol, and hectorite clay. The weight percentage of hectorite clay was varied at three different levels to study its effect on the properties of the thermoplastic polyurethane nanocomposite. The nanocomposite polyurethane foam was synthesized in a 2-step reaction process. The first step involved the addition and dispersion of nanoclay into the isocyanate. The mixture was then mixed with the polyol, and the foam was cast in a preheated closed mold. The PUR-nanocomposite foams were analyzed for cell structure, physical, mechanical, and thermal properties. The composite foam showed significant increase in tensile and flexural strengths, abrasion resistance, and thermal properties.

Moisture absorption of natural fiber-based composites is one of the major problems in outdoor applications. The present study deals with the effect of moisture absorption on mechanical and thermal properties of unmodified/modified Date Palm Leaf (DPL) with glass fiber-based hybrid composites. Natural fibers were modified with alkaline treatment to improve fiber and matrix bonding. Conventional hand lay-up technique is used to fabricate the composites with varying different wt.% of treated and untreated short DPL with constant wt.% of glass fiber and prepared with random oriented manner. The combine effect of hydrophilic and hydrophobic nature find out as the study based upon the natural with synthetic fiber hybrid composites. Mechanical behaviour of the epoxy-based hybrid composites were characterized by using tensile, flexural and hardness test. The results revealed that significant improvement in mechanical properties by the addition of different weight percentage of modified DPL. Different thermal properties of the composites were described by using Thermo Gravimetric Analyzer (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimetric (DSC). Morphological investigation was carried out to by using scanning electron microscope. All the properties of untreated natural fiber reinforced composites were mostly affected by the influence of water absorption as compared with chemically treated based composites.

Lap Shear

The physical, mechanical, electrical and thermal properties containing (Viscosity, curing, adhesion force, Tensile strength, Lap shear strength, Resistively, Electrical conductivity and flammability) of adhesive material that prepared from Nitrocellulose reinforced with graphite particles and aluminum streat. A comparison is made between the properties of adhesive material with varying percentage of graphite powder (0%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%) to find out the effect of reinforcement on the adhesive material. The ability of property an electrical was studied through the measurement of conductivity a function of temperature varying. The results of comparison have clearly shown that the increasing of content of the filler material (graphite weight) after limit ratio determined (32%) in material prepare lead to yielding the (CN) material to concept of granular agglomeration. The mechanical properties decrease when graphite weight ratio increases. Electrical conductivity and flammability increases with graphite weight percentage increases, while the electrical conductivity decreases with increases of temperature. The adherent topography of some physically tested Specimens was studied using optical microscopy.
