The novel packaging was synthesised by coating polyvinyl chloride (PVC) film with Polyvinylamine/Polyvinyl alcohol (PVAm/PVA) mixture which can effectively inhibit the migration of DOP in this paper. The effect of PVAm/PVA mixture on inhibiting DOP migration was detected via extraction tests. The results showed that the novel packaging significantly reduced the migration rate of DOP compared with the control (PVC film). After 24h extracted by hexane 40% PVAm in mixture being coated on PVC had the lowest migration rate (6.20%) among the samples, while 7.60% is the migration rate of control sample. Tensile properties analysis indicated the elongation at break and tensile strength of samples coating PVAm/PVA higher than control sample. The thermogravimetric analysis demonstrated that the PVAm/PVA mixed solution can deduce thermogravimetric rate. Therefore, coating PVC with PVAm/PVA mixture is an effective approach to suppress the migration of DOP.

Polypropylene/Cocoa Pod Husk (PP/CPH) biocomposites with different maleated polypropylene (MAPP) content were prepared via melt blending process using Brabender Plastrograph mixer. The tensile strength and tensile modulus of PP/CPH biocomposites increased with increasing of MAPP content. The PP/CPH biocomposites with 5 phr of MAPP showed the optimum improvement on tensile properties. However, the increased of MAPP content reduced the elongation at break of PP/CPH biocomposites. At 5 phr of MAPP content, PP/CPH biocomposites showed lowest elongation at break. Scanning electron microscope confirms the PP/CPH biocomposites with MAPP have better filler-matrix interaction and adhesion due to the effect of MAPP.

Abstract Large area graphene oxide sheets were synthesized, dispersed in water and used as nanofiller for mechanical improvement in terms of Young’s modulus and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) at low loading. The molecular level dispersion and interfacial interactions between the graphene oxides and polymeric matrix PVA were the real challenges. An excellent improvement in mechanical properties at 0.35 wt% loading was observed. Modulus improved from 1.58 GPa to 2.72 GPa (~71% improvement), UTS improved from 120 MPa to 197 MPa (~65% improvement), and in spite of these improvements, interestingly, there was no fall in elongation at break at this loading.

Effects of alkanolamide (ALK) addition on cure characteristics, swelling behaviour and tensile properties of silica-filled natural rubber (NR)/chloroprene rubber (CR) blends were investigated. The ALK was synthesized from Refined Bleached Deodorized Palm Stearin (RBDPS) and diethanolamine, and incorporated into the silica-filled NR/CR blends as a non-toxic rubber additive. The ALK loadings were 0.0, 1.0, 3.0, 5.0 and 7.0 phr. It was found that the ALK exhibited shorter scorch and cure times and higher elongation at break of the silica-filled NR/CR blends. The ALK also exhibited higher torque differences, tensile modulus and tensile strength at a 1.0 phr of ALK loading and then decreased with further increases in the ALK loading. The swelling measurement proved that the 1.0 phr loading of ALK caused the highest degree in crosslink density of the silica-filled NR/CR blends.

The object of this work is to study and predict the tensile properties (tensile strength, elastic modulus, and elongation at break) of ternary nanocomposites based on epoxy/glass fiber/nanosilica using the fuzzy logic (FL). Two factors in three levels including glass fiber at 0, 5, and 10 wt% and nanosilica at 0, 0.5, and 1 wt% were chosen for adding to an epoxy matrix. From FL surfaces, it was found that the glass fiber content had a main role in the tensile properties of nanocomposites. The high levels of glass fiber content led to a significant increase in the elastic modulus and generally, the presence of glass fiber decreased the tensile strength and elongation at break. Also, addition of the nanosilica content resulted in an increased elastic modulus but decreased the elongation at break of nanocomposites. Finally, an FL model was obtained for each tensile property.

This research focused on the utilization of kapok husk (KH) as filler in low linear density polyethylene (LLDPE). The effect of filler content on tensile properties and morphology of LLDPE/KH eco-composites were investigated. The eco-composites were prepared by using Brabender Plasticiser EC Plus at temperature 160 °C and rotor speed 50 rpm. The results indicated that the tensile strength and elongation at break decreased with KH content increased. However, the modulus of elasticity increased with increasing of KH content. The morphology study of eco-composites exhibit poor interfacial adhesion between KH and LLDPE.

Nanocomposites based on segmented poly(urethane urea) were prepared by reacting a poly(diisocyanate) with diamine-modified Laponite-RD nanoparticles that served as a chain extender. The nanocomposites were prepared at a constantNH2to NCO mole ratio of 0.95, while varying the fraction of diamine-modified Laponite relative to the free diamine chain extender. Compared to neat poly(urethane urea), all nanocomposites showed increased tensile strength and elongation at break. As Laponite loading increased, tensile properties passed through a maximum at a particle concentration of 1 mass%, at which a 300% increase in tensile strength and 40% increase in elongation at break were observed. A maximum in urea and urethane hard-domain melting endotherms was also observed at this Laponite loading. Optimal mechanical and thermal properties coincided with a minimum in the size of the inorganic Laponite phase. Nanocomposites containing diamine-modified Laponite had higher tensile strengths than those with nonreactive monoamine-modified Laponite or diamine-modified Cloisite.

This paper discusses the synthesis and preparation of polyvinyl alcohol based nanocomposites through the use of miniature thermoplastics processing technology. It studies the influence of different process conditions, the amount of raw materials and water on the processing performance, tensile strength and elongation at break of polyvinyl alcohol based nanocomposites. Studies have shown that using two miniature thermoplastic processes does not have much influence on the mechanical properties of polyvinyl alcohol based nanocomposites, different amount of polyvinyl alcohol will lead to enhancement of the tensile strength of the polyvinyl alcohol based nanocomposites system by the increasing amount of glycerin, and the water content has a great influence on the performance of polyvinyl alcohol based nanocomposites. To this end, according to the analysis of experimental results, it can obtain preparation conditions and influencing factors of polyvinyl alcohol based nanocomposites with the miniature thermoplastic processing conditions, and provide a new theoretical method and means for nanocomposites.

The reprocessing ability of recycled polypropylene (PP) has been investigated to evaluate the recycling feasibility in spur gear production. Up to 15 reprocessing cycles have been performed by injection moulding, and the effects on tensile properties including ultimate tensile strength, Young’s modulus and elongation at break have been studied. Results revealed that reprocessing ability of recycled PP spur gears could yield satisfactory quality as attractive as that corresponding to the virgin PP spur gear. The recycled PP gears resulted in more 10% variation in tensile properties during multiple processing. This effort might be a contribution to convince the industry to apply recycling of PP by means of multiple reprocessing in gear manufacturing.

Konjac glucomannan (KGM) and poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) were mixed to form gel-like polyelectrolyte solution with glycerol and sorbitol as compound plasticizer, which was used to prepare packaging films via casting and drying. The results show that the tensile strength and elongation at break of the packaging films drop sharply when the blending temperature and blending time exceed 80 °C and 3.5 h. When the mass ratio of sorbitol and glycerol in the compound plasticizer ranges from 1:1 to 1:3, it is beneficial to improve the tensile strength of the packaging films. The microscopic reasons for the change of the tensile properties of the packaging films are mainly caused by diffusion-stop-continuing diffusion—precipitation of low-molecular electrolyte, which makes the system shift from equilibrium-homogeneous state- unbalanced state—heterogeneous state.

The aim of this study is to produce PLA nanocomposites by solvent casting incorporating Montmorillonite nanoclays (MMT) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles. The effects of difference loadings of MMT in PLA and different loadings of TiO2 on mechanical and morphology properties were studied. The nanocomposites were prepared by solvent casting at different loadings of MMT (0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 wt %) and different loadings of TiO2 (1 and 3 wt %) respectively. The properties such as tensile properties (tensile strength, elongation at break, and modulus of elasticity) and morphology were determined. The results indicate that 4 wt% of MMT loading produced the best tensile properties. However, the incorporation of TiO2 showed an improvement in the modulus of elasticity of PLA/MMT nanocomposites mainly at 1 wt % loading of TiO2.
