    Notes: The thermal properties of nickel powder filled polypropylene composites were measured over a range of filler concentrations. The thermal conductivities increased with filler concentration. Data were compared with predictions by theoretical models for two phase systems. The equation of Cheng-Vachon gave reasonable agreement with measurements. A TGA (thermogravimetric) study of the composites showed that the presence of nickel powder increases the thermal stability of polymer through an increase in activation energy to a maximum at a critical filler concentration, beyond which the stability decreased. The Vicat softening point of the composites was also increased in the presence of Ni powder.

    Notes: The melt rheological properties of nickel powder filled polypropylene composites were investigated. The effect of filler concentration on shear stress-shear rate data, melt viscosity and melt elasticity parameters were determined by using a capillary rheometer. The study shows that the materials follow a power law in viscous behavior over the entire range of shear rates investigated and that the viscosity increases and elasticity decreases as filler concentration is increased up to a critical value. However, beyond the critical filler content melt viscosity decreases while melt elasticity increases. The effect of temperature on the viscoelastic properties of filled polypropylene was also investigated.

    Notes: Polyesterimide (PEI) and phenol formaldehyde (PF) samples were synthesized, and composites of the two polymers, as well as composites with carbon, were prepared. Using a pinon-disc machine, the friction and wear properties of the following samples were studied in the load range of two to eight bars:Phenolformaldehyde vs. steelPhenol formaldehyde cured with hexamethylenetetramine vs. steelPolyesterimide vs steelPolyesterimide and carbon composite vs steelPhenol formaldehyde vs polyesterimidePhenol formaldehyde and polyesterimide composite vs. phenol formaldehydePhenol formaldehyde and polyesterimide composite vs. steel. The data obtained from these experiments were compared with literature data on poly(tetrafluoroethylene) and nylon, conventionally used for tribological applications. It is seen that, in terms of thermal stability, friction, and wear, PEI and PF are promising for tribological applications.

    Notes: Blends of poly(butylene terephthalate) and high density polyethylene at a ratio of 80:20 wt% were reinforced with short glass fibers varying from 10 to 30 wt% to enhance mechanical properties. Considerable fiber damage occurred during injection molding, reducing the number average fiber length from the starting value of 4.5 mm to 〈 1 mm. This value decreased with increasing fiber content, which is also responsible for lowering the reinforcement efficiency. The variation in mechanical properties has been explained on the basis of fiber concertration. The effect of an ionomer, which was used to compatibilize the blends, on properties of corresponding composites has also been studied.

    Notes: Mechanical properties such as tensile and flexural properties as well as impact behavior of nickel-powder-filled isotactic polypropylene composites were investigated in the composite composition range 0-3.5 volume % Ni. Tensile modulus, strength, and elongation-at-break decreased with increase in Ni content, which is attributed to the introduction of discontinuity in the structure. Analysis of tensile strength data indicated the introduction of stress concentration consequent upon addition of Ni into polypropylene. Izod impact strength at first increased up to a critical Ni content beyond which the value decreased inappreciably while flexural modulus and strength increased with filler concentration.

    Notes: Blends of poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) and acrylonitrile-butadiene styrene (ABS) terpolymer were prepared in different ratios by a melt blending technique. ABS containing three different levels of rubber content were used. A quantitative assessment of ABS in PVC/ABS blends has been shown by infrared studies. ABS content has been shown as the presence of the characteristic acrylonitrile peak. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies have been carried out to study the glass transition (Tg) behavior of the blends. Two Tg values corresponding to PVC and styrene-acrylonitrile (SAN) copolymer have been observed. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) reveals a significant improvement in thermal stability of these blends as compared to PVC. Mechanical properties show a significant increase in the impact strength which is related to rubber content of the ABS used. Morphological studies have been carried out by scanning electron microscopy which support the observation that an increase in rubber content results in greater ductility.
