Physical characterization of polycaprolactone scaffolds
TL;DR: The porosity, crystallinity, and mechanical properties of the samples were studied and variations observed in the results of the different scans were attributed to the differences in porosity and crystallinity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improvement of tensile properties and toughness of an epoxy resin by nanozirconium-dioxide reinforcement
TL;DR: In this article, a series of composites with varying amounts of nanoparticles was prepared and their morphology and mechanical properties were studied by tensile tests, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, and fracture toughness (KIC) investigations; by standardized methods, to define the influence of the nanoparticle content on their mechanical and thermal properties.

Influence of Aging on the Physical-Mechanical Properties of Acrylic Resin Films Cast from Aqueous Dispersions and Organic Solutions
TL;DR: The physical-mechanical properties of the enteric copolymers, poly(methacrylic acid, ethyl acrylate) Eudragit® L100-55, and EudRAGIT® L30D have been investigated in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of talc/calcium carbonate filled polypropylene hybrid composites weathered in a natural environment
TL;DR: In this paper, two kinds of composites, namely single-filler polypropylene (PP) composites (containing either talc or calcium carbonate) and hybridfiller PP composites were injection molded into dumbbells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and characterization of epoxy nanocomposites based on nano-structured oil palm ash
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of filler loading percentage on physical, mechanical, thermal and morphology properties of the epoxy nanocomposites were studied and it was concluded that the size of the OPA had been successfully reduced from macromolecular to the nano-size range by high energy ball milling and was confirmed by TEM analysis.
