Journal ArticleDOI
Rheological testing of a curing process controlled by Joule heating
TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT)/epoxy system was cured through direct application of a DC electric field while rheological properties were measured.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of MWCNT/TPU systems by large amplitude oscillation shear
TL;DR: In this paper, the Ewoldt framework was used to analyze the nonlinear stress response of a thermoplastic polyurethane matrix filled with carbon nanotubes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A logistic kinetic model for isothermal and nonisothermal cure reactions of thermosetting polymers
TL;DR: In this paper, a model describing the low-temperature crystallization kinetics observed for thermoplastic polymers from the melt by Dif-ferential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was shown to accurately predict the cooling curves as a function of time and temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrorheological behaviour of a starch-oil system
Carlos Gracia-Fernández,S. Gómez-Barreiro,Ana Álvarez-García,Jorge López-Beceiro,Ramón Artiaga +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, a simple system consisting of a suspension of 10 wt % of starch in silicone oil was subjected to electrorheological testing and the system exhibits a complex behaviour depending on the electrical field.
Journal ArticleDOI
TMDSC phase angle for a better nanocomposite interphase identification
Javier Tarrío-Saavedra,Carlos Gracia-Fernández,Jorge López-Beceiro,Salvador Naya,Ramón Artiaga +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new approach based on the utilization of temperature modulated differential scanning calorimetry (TMDSC) technique was proposed for identifying and characterizing the organic-inorganic interphase of two materials: an epoxy-fumed silica nanocomposite and a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU)-multiwalled nanotube (MWNT) composite.
