The new wood-plastic nanocomposites (WPC) based on acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) resin was successfully blended with ABS and poplar flour (PF) through a HAAKE rheomix. The mechanical properties of nanocomposites, except for flexural modulus, were reduced after increasing the PF content. SEM photos show the reduction resulting from weak interfacial adhesion between the PF phase and ABS phase. Higher PF content leads to a low thermal stability and a high water absorption ratio. Different coupling agents (CA) were employed to improve the compatibility between PF and ABS. The results suggest that ABS-g-MAH is more effective than POE-g-MAH, EVA and SEBS. Maleic anhydride (MA) was blended in situ with PF and ABS as the reactive compatibilizer and mechanical properties of nanocomposites were improved except impact strength.

In the majority of published articles on the topic, ER fluids have been studied as if they were viscous liquids. In this work, electrorheological fluids were characterized as solids and their mechanical properties were determined. The results infer that ER materials are controllably resistant to compression, tensile and shear stress, in this order of magnitude. More precisely, fluids made of starch have elasticity modulus similar to that of rubber, they have tensile strength 103 to 5×104 times lower than that of low density polyethylene (LDPE), static yield stress 4×104 to 8×105 times lower than that of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene terpolymer (ABS) and fatigue life similar to some polymers like polyethylene(PE) and polypropylene (PP).
