High-density polyethylene reinforced with submicron titania particles

TL;DR: Submicron titania particles were prepared by means of two different synthetic procedures in order to obtain different particle size (diameter ranging from 20 to 350 nm), shapes, and morphologies (amorphous or crystalline) as mentioned in this paper.

Stress relaxation and time/temperature superposition of polypropylene fibres

F.-J. Wortmann, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1995 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the viscoelastic properties of polypropylene fibres are investigated in a single-step stress relaxation test for small strains at temperatures between −50 and + 30 °C, thus well encompassing the glass transition temperature.
