Journal ArticleDOI

Potential perspectives of bio-nanocomposites for food packaging applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the advantages of nanotechnology application in order to improve the mechanical and oxidation stability, the barrier properties, and eventually the biodegradability of conventional polymeric matrices are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of functionalization on the thermo-mechanical and electrical behavior of multi-wall carbon nanotube/epoxy composites

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the functionalization of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on the structure, the mechanical and electrical properties of composites was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of crystallinity on the biodegradation rate of injection-moulded poly(lactic acid) samples in controlled composting conditions

TL;DR: In this article, the degradation of poly(lactic acid) was investigated in both distilled water and controlled composting conditions at a temperature of 58 °C, and it was concluded that the denser structure of the initially crystalline sample was more impermeable to the enzymatic attach and to oligomer diffusion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fabrication of polymer nanocomposites via ball milling: Present status and future perspectives

TL;DR: A review of the recent advances in the preparation of polymer nanocomposites via mechanical milling can be found in this article, where a broad spectrum of experimental behaviors exhibited by the most studied classes of polymers are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical and barrier properties of epoxy resin filled with multi-walled carbon nanotubes

TL;DR: In this article, different multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) concentrations were incorporated in an epoxy resin and both the epoxy precursor and the composite were cured at 110 °C with a tertiary amine.
