The use of sustainable and environmentally friendly materials in today’s society is becoming increasingly important due to mankind’s increasing pressure on the carrying capacity of the planet. Natural fibre reinforced composites... more
The behavior of stone groundwood / polypropylene injection-molded composites was evaluated with and without coupling agent. Stone groundwood (SGW) is a fibrous material commonly prepared in a high yield process and mainly used for... more
The wood plastic composites studied in this work are composed of high-density polyethylene matrix and Pinus pinaster wood fibers. Despite some interesting intrinsic properties, this wood plastic composite has limited mechanical properties... more
The effectiveness, kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of maleic acid in solution using a novel modified polyacrylonitrile (PAN) catalyst/hydrogen peroxide system was studied. The modified PAN catalyst contains immobilised Fe
New magnesium complexes were used as catalysts for the ring opening polymerization of cyclic esters to produce degradable polymers. In the ROP of macrolactones, good activity and control were achieved at room temperature, conditions... more
Od-MA polymer is developed as the first metal-free, recyclable anhydride catalyst used for the N-oxidation of pyridines with H2O2.
The rate constants of the Diels-Alder reaction of 9,10-dimethylanthracene with tetracyanoethylene, 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione, maleic anhydride, and N-phenylmaleimide in solution have been determined. It was found that... more
The potential energy surface of four stereoselective Diels-Alder reactions was studied, namely: cyclopentadiene-maleic anhydride, furan-maleic anhydride, the dimerization of cyclopentadiene, and cyclopentadiene-cyclopropene. For... more
Synthesis and characterization of a novel toughener–compatibilizer for polypropylene (PP)–montmorillonite (MMT) nanocomposites were conducted to provide enhanced mechanical and thermal properties. Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) blocks were... more
Melt blending of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) and poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) was performed in an extrusion mixer with post extrusion blown film attachment with and without a compatibilizer-maleic anhydride grafted low density... more
Glycerides obtained from the glycerolysis of soybean oil with crude glycerol were acylated with maleic anhydride at 80–100 °C. Both uncatalyzed and catalyzed reactions with 2‐methylimidazole (2‐MI) were evaluated. Formation of maleated... more
ABSTRACTIn-situ filling through hydrolysis and condensation of silicon alkoxides dissolved into polymers has been utilized to generate nanocomposites in which the filler phase can be intimately associated with the polymer on relatively... more
