TL;DR: Using exfoliated graphite nanoplatelets (xGnP) as heat-diffusion promoter to improve thermal conductivity of paraffin wax, the authors in this paper showed that the latent heat of Paraffin/xGNP composite PCMs did not decrease as loading xGnPs contents to paraffins.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of processing temperature on the interfacial adhesion, mechanical properties and thermal stability of bio-flour-filled, polypropylene (PP) composites was examined as a function of five different maleic anhydride-grafted PP (MAPP) types.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the addition of two different compatibilizing agents, maleic anhydride (MA)-grafted polypropylene (MAPP), to bio-flour-filled, Polypropylene and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) composites was investigated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the tensile and Izod impact strength properties of lignocellulosic filler reinforced polyethylene bio-composites, made using low-and high-density polyethylenes as the matrix polymer, rice-husk flour and wood flour as the reinforcing filler and different compatibilizing agents, were examined by assessing their mechanical properties and the morphological characteristics of their fracture surfaces.

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential of using pristine and engineered biochar as CO2 capturing media, as well as the factors influencing the CO2 adsorption capacity of biochar and issues related to the synthesis biochar-based CO2 adorbents, are summarized and evaluated.
