Mulch films based on poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)/carnauba wax/sugar cane residue: Effects on soil temperature and moisture:

TL;DR: In the last decades, difficulties in recovery of non-degradable mulch have been encountered as mentioned in this paper, due to the difficulty in recovering non-decreasing mulch.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rheological characteristics PBAT/organoclay compounds

TL;DR: The rheological behavior of BAT and its composites prepared with three different organocays was investigated in this article, showing that the interaction of the polymer with the organoclay is responsible for the increase in melt viscosity observed by increases in torque and relaxation time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of organoclay and corn straw on the properties of poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) hybrid composites

TL;DR: In this paper , the effect of incorporating different fillers (organophilic clay and corn straw) on the rheological, mechanical, permeability, water absorption and biodegradability characteristics of poly (butylene adipate co-terephthalate) (PBAT) processed in an internal laboratory mixer was investigated.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Eco-Friendly Metamaterial Antenna for 2.4GHz WLAN Applications

TL;DR: In this paper, an eco-friendly metamaterial antenna for 2.4 GHz WLAN applications is presented, which is composed of two copper tape layers, one as the radiating element and the other as the modified ground plane with complementary split ring Resonators (CSRR).
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal and Acoustic Performance of Green Polyethylene/Cork Composite for Civil Construction Applications

TL;DR: In this article , green high-density polyethylene (GHDPE) composites with 5, 10 and 15% natural powdered cork (CP) with and without 5% maleic anhydride (PE-g-MA) were developed in order to evaluate the potential of these materials for civil construction applications.
