Dynamically vulcanized blends of polypropylene and ethylene octene copolymer: Influence of various coagents on mechanical and morphological characteristics
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of three structurally different coagents, namely triallyl cyanurate (TAC), trimethylol propane triacrylate (TMPTA), and N,N′-m-phenylene dimaleimide (MPDM), on the mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP) and ethylene octene copolymer (EOC) thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atom transfer radical polymerization of 3-ethyl-3-(acryloyloxy)methyloxetane
TL;DR: In this paper, a monomer bearing an oxetane group in the side chain was polymerized via ATRP using EBIB as initiator and CuBr as a catalyst complexed with 1,1,4,7,10,10-hexamethyltriethylenetetramine (HMTETA) as ligand.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tailor‐made hybrid nanostructure of poly(ethyl acrylate)/clay by surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization
TL;DR: In this article, a hybrid nanoarchitecture of tailor-made poly(ethyl acrylate)/clay was prepared by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP), by tethering ATRP initiator on active hydroxyl group, present in surface as well as in the organic modifier of the clay used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of poly(2-ethylhexyl acrylate)/clay nanocomposite by in situ living radical polymerization
Dhruba J. Haloi,Nikhil K. Singha +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a tailor-made poly(2-ethylhexyl acrylate) (PEHA) was prepared via in situ living radical polymerization in the presence of layered silicates and characterization of this polymer/clay nanocomposite.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tailor-Made Fluorinated Copolymer/Clay Nanocomposite by Cationic RAFT Assisted Pickering Miniemulsion Polymerization.
TL;DR: This investigation reports the preparation of a fluorinated copolymer via Pickering miniemulsion polymerization through reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) process, which resulted in improved surface properties because of polymer-Laponite interaction.
