Effect Of Additives

Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) was used as the sole carbon source in the medium to isolate PVA-degrading fungi from an activated sludge which obtained from water-soluble PVA packaging film factory. The PVA-degrading fungi were screened after transparent circle experiment and were preliminary identified through morphology and optical microscope observations. The qualitative and quantitative researches of the effect of additives on PVA degradability were investigated by transparent circle experiment and UV spectrophotometry, respectively. The results showed that the degradation effect of the XP-02 was the best in ten PVA-degrading strain and was preliminary identified as penicillium. When the concentration of additives was 0.05 g/L, the biodegradation rate of PVA was increased with the addition of plasticizer (polyethylene glycol) (PEG), surface active agent (sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate) (SDBS) and emulsifying agent (tween-80 or triton X-100) by 5.01%, 8.67% and 11.21%, respectively, which indicates that the additives in the PVA packaging film can increase the degradable effect. However, the optimum proportion of these additives in the PVA film to obtain the best degradability for the film is deserves the further investigation.

In order to reduce dust produced during the blasting, effective measures according to smoke components and properties are required to be taken. The experiment adopted a number of base materials and surface-active agents to reduce the dust in smoke. Besides, corresponding additives were adopted to reduce poisonous and harmful gases during the blasting. Experiments focused on wettability and surface tension, using contrast experiment to determine optimal base material and surface-active agent, and also studied the influence of additives on their performance. The experimental results suggested that： sodium chloride was the optimal base material, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate was the optimal surface-active agent, and copper sulphate and ammonium chloride as additives had almost no influence on performance of surface-active agent and base material. Therefore, adding this dustfall agent to the water bag during the blasting can effectively reduce the concentration of smoke.

The main objective of this study was to enhance the rate of UV and biodegradation of polyethylene by incorporating biodegradable materials and prooxidants. Prooxidants such as transition metal complexes are capable of initiating photooxidation and polymer chain cleavage, rendering the product more susceptible to biodegradation. In this work, the effect of (1) a metallic photoinitiator, cobalt stearate, and (2) different combinations of cobalt stearate and vegetable oil on the photooxidative degradation of linear low-density poly(ethylene)-poly(vinyl alcohol) (LLDPE/PVA) blend films has been investigated. For this, film-grade LLDPE was blended with different proportions of PVA. PVA is widely used in the industrial field, and recently it has attracted increasing attention as a water-soluble biodegradable polymer. Cobalt stearate and vegetable oil were added to the blends as prooxidants. The blends were prepared by melt mixing in a Thermo HAAKE Polylab system. Thin films containing these additives were prepared by a subsequent compression moulding process. The effect of UV exposure on LLDPE/PVA films in the presence as well as absence of these additives was investigated. Tensile properties, FTIR spectra, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were employed to investigate the degradation behaviour. It was found

Graphene Nanoplates

Graphene nanoplates (GNPs) are carbon nanomaterials with two-dimensional structure which is easy to reunite and their dispersion is necessary before using. The existing methods for dispersion characterization mainly include UV spectrophotometry, scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). In this research study, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS), polyoxyethylene (40) nonylphenyl ether, branched (CO890), polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) were used as dispersants, and ultrasonic treatment was employed as dispersion method. Ultraviolet spectrum for GNPs showed that some errors were attained, resulting from dispersant at 274 nm characteristic wavelength of GNPs dispersions with deionized water as controlled sample. The errors could be eliminated if dispersant solution was used as controlled sample. The microstructures of dispersed GNPs observed by SEM, TEM and AFM suggested that the GNPs were dispersed uniformly with 2.5 g/L SDBS, which showed the best dispersion effect. Raman spectrum indicated that more chaotic distribution and edge structures were achieved after dispersion.
