Journal ArticleDOI
Water absorption and states of water in semicrystalline poly(vinyl alcohol) films
TL;DR: In this paper, wide angle X-ray studies indicate that diffusion of water into semicrystalline samples of the polymer gradually destroys the crystalline regions of the polyvinyl alcohol, although water is found to not inhabit intact crystallites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Free Volume and the Mechanism of Plasticization in Water-Swollen Poly(vinyl alcohol)
TL;DR: The effects of water content (and hence state) on the free volume, chain mobility, and glass transition (Tg) behavior have been studied by positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy, 13C solid state nuclear magnetic resonance, and dynamic mechanical analysis as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Matrix–Particle Interfacial Adhesion on the Mechanical Properties of Poly(lactic acid)/Wood-Flour Micro-Composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of interfacial matrix/particle adhesion on the mechanical properties of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) micro-composites was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradation and thermal decomposition of poly(lactic acid)-based materials reinforced by hydrophilic fillers
Eustathios Petinakis,Eustathios Petinakis,Xingxun Liu,Xingxun Liu,Long Yu,Cameron Way,Parveen Sangwan,Katherine Dean,Stuart Bateman,Graham H Edward +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of hydrophilic fillers (starch and wood-flour) on the degradation and decomposition of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) based materials was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Yielding behaviour in model epoxy thermosets — I. Effect of strain rate and composition
TL;DR: In this article, the yield stress was investigated in two series of networks where the molecular architecture (crosslink density) was varied without any significant chemical changes in the structure and the Eyring equation was found to satisfactorily describe the dependence of yield stress on the strain rate.
