Principles of polymer engineering

TLDR
In this article, the elastic properties of polymeric solids and their properties of rubber are discussed. But they focus on the structure of the molecule rather than the properties of the solids.

Reliability of Free Inflation and Dynamic Mechanics Tests on the Prediction of the Behavior of the Polymethylsilsesquioxane-High-Density Polyethylene Nanocomposite for Thermoforming Applications.

TL;DR: Using two different experiments, bubble inflation and dynamic mechanical testing on a high-density polyethylene nanocomposite reinforced with polymethylsilsesquioxane HDPE (PMSQ–HDPE) nanoparticles, material constants for Christensen’s model were determined by the least squares optimization.

Decreasing the Effect of Ultra Violet Ray on Polypropylene by Using Chromium Tri-oxide

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of ultraviolet ray has been studied because of the tertiary carbon bonds in PP chain structure is the center of UV attack, and the results show that after different intervals of UV exposure (CrO3) works as stabilizer and plasticizer at the same time.

Bulk Property Modification of Fiber Forming Polymers using Vapor Phase Techniques

TL;DR: PADBURY et al. as discussed by the authors employed in-situ quartz crystal microgravimetry to understand the nucleation behavior of alumina ALD in a series of poly-n-methacrylate and polyester thin films.

The Effect of Flamestab® NOR 116 on EPDM-based Automotive Sealing Profiles

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the Flamestab NOR 116 were investigated by mechanical and rheological tests and ageing using the internationally recognised Florida artificial weathering test and surface morphological changes were examined via scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analyses.
