Journal Article
Compatibility of biodegradable poly (lactic acid) (PLA) and poly (butylene succinate) (PBS) blends for packaging application
TL;DR: In this article, the properties of PLA and poly(butylene succinate) blends were investigated by using a laboratory-scale twin-screw extruder at 180oC. Morphological, thermal, rheological and mechanical properties were investigated on the samples obtained by compression molding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphology, electromagnetic properties and electromagnetic interference shielding performance of poly lactide/graphene nanoplatelet nanocomposites
TL;DR: In this paper, X-ray diffraction showed that GNP had a significant effect on the semi-crystalline structure of PLA which was also confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dielectric properties and electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness of graphene-based biodegradable nanocomposites
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of GNP incorporation on electromagnetic properties and electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (SE) of PLA and PBAT was investigated and the applicability of Sihvola's mixing rule of complex electrical permittivity to these nanocomposites was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extensional viscosity of dilute polystyrene solutions: Effect of concentration and molecular weight
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed investigation of the steady shear and extensional properties of mono-disperse polystyrene solutions for a range of molecular weights from 1.95 to 20 million was performed using the Zimm model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shear and extensional rheology of EVA/layered silicate-nanocomposites
TL;DR: In this article, an attempt has been made to propose a possible mechanism that describes the influence of clay layers on the uniaxial extensional flow field of EVA28 copolymer.
