Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal degradation studies of alkyl-imidazolium salts and their application in nanocomposites
Walid H. Awad,Jeffrey W. Gilman,Marc R. Nyden,Richard H. Harris,Thomas E. Sutto,John H. Callahan,Paul C. Trulove,Hugh C. DeLong,Douglas M. Fox +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of alkyl-imidazolium-treated montmorillonite clays were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, thermogravimetry (TGA) and thermal desorption mass spectroscopy (TDMS).
Journal ArticleDOI
A reactive molecular dynamics model of thermal decomposition in polymers: I. Poly(methyl methacrylate)
TL;DR: In this paper, the theory and implementation of reactive molecular dynamics (RMD) are presented for thermal degradation of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), and the results of RMD simulations, performed directly in the condensed phase, are consistent with available experimental information.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphological Partitioning of Ethylene Defects in Random Propylene−Ethylene Copolymers†
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of four propylene/ethylene, metallocene-catalyzed random copolymer samples, with ethylene mole fractions ranging from 0.8% to 7.5% and melt crystallization histories of cooling at 1 °C/min, were studied by 13C solid-state NMR techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of carbon nanotubes and montmorillonite on the flammability of epoxy nanocomposites
Sameer S. Rahatekar,Mauro Zammarano,Szabolcs Matko,Krzysztof K. K. Koziol,Alan H. Windle,Marc R. Nyden,Takashi Kashiwagi,Jeffrey W. Gilman +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a 0.0025 mass fraction of highly aligned multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was used to reduce the peak mass loss rate (PMLR) during gasification of epoxy and MWCNT composites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of Resonances Associated with Stereo and Regio Defects in the Crystalline Regions of Isotactic Polypropylene: Toward a Determination of Morphological Partitioning
TL;DR: In this article, defect-resonance patterns associated with two kinds of low-concentration defects typically found in metallocene-synthesized isotactic polypropylenes (iPP's) were reported.
