Journal ArticleDOI
Flame retardancy in thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (TPU) with mica and aluminum trihydrate (ATH)
TL;DR: In this paper, two types of aluminum trihydrate (ATH), with or without surface treatment, and mica were incorporated into TPU composites to obtain good flame retardancy in TPU-mica composites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical and dynamic mechanical properties of rice husk ash–filled natural rubber compounds
TL;DR: In this article, a laboratory-sized two-roll mill was used to incorporate rice husk ash into natural rubber and a conventional vulcanization system was used for curing and cure studies were carried out on a rheometer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life Cycle Assessment of Polyethylene Terephthalate Packaging: An Overview
TL;DR: An overview of the life cycle assessment of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) packaging can be found in this article, where the authors highlight the need to conduct LCA studies of PET, since many aspects are still not fully understood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical properties of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers with mica and aluminum trihydrate
TL;DR: In this article, two types of fillers were incorporated into thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (TPU): mica and aluminum trihydrate (ATH).
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of coupling agent and chemical treatment on rice husk ash‐ filled natural rubber composites
TL;DR: In this paper, Rice husk ash was incorporated into natural rubber (NR) using a laboratory size two-roll mill, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis was done to verify the presence of the characteristic functional groups of precipitated silica in MHA and THA.
