Melt Mixing

Diatomite was treated by titanate coupling agent and blended with low-density polyethylene (LDPE) by the method of melt-mixing blend. The performance of the blends, such as thermal behavior, mechanical property and microstructure, were analyzed with differential scanning calorimetry, thermo-gravimetric analysis, tensile strength testing and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that influenced the crystalline behavior of LDPE phase in the blends and made the crystallization rate of LDPE phase decreased. Moreover, the thermo-decomposing temperature of the blends increased with increasing the diatomite content, diatomite significantly improved the thermal stability of the blends. Tensile strengths of the blends firstly decreased and then increased. When the diatomite content was 30%wt, the tensile strength of the blend reached to 14.6MPa. SEM photographs showed the good dispersion and interaction.

Step Heating

Step-heating (single-and four-step heating) was used in the melt-mixing preparation of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) composites. The MWNT in the composites were used at volume fractions of 0, 1, 3, 5, and 10 vol% (four-step heating), and 0, 1, 3, and 5 vol% (single-step heating). The effects of the heating steps on the microstructure of the LLDPE/MWNT composites were studied. An ultimate tensile testing machine and an impact testing machine were used to characterize the mechanical properties of the composites. The sample prepared using four-step heating had a lower porosity than the sample prepared using single-step heating. The sample with 3 vol% MWNT that was prepared using four-step heating had tensile strength, elastic modulus, and impact strength values that were higher than those of the other samples.

Abstract The influence of alumina (Al2O3) content and diameter on the viscosity characteristics of the alumina/linear low-density polyethylene (Al2O3/LLDPE) composites was discussed. The composites were fabricated by melt mixing with the two-rotor continuous mixer. The equivalent surface average particle diameter ( d ¯ A {\bar{d}}_{\text{A}} ) of Al2O3 was calculated by the scanning electron microscopic (SEM) images of samples. The steady-state and dynamic rheological measurements were used to study the evolution of viscosity parameters. With the Carreau model fitting to the steady-rate rheological data, zero-shear viscosity η 0, time constant λ, and power law index n of composites were obtained. On this basis, an optimized Carreau model was established by studying the changes of these parameter values. The rheological result presented that the parameter values (η 0, λ, and n) were linearly proportional to the filling content of Al2O3 particles for nano-Al2O3/LLDPE composites. However, these parameters were, respectively, related to d ¯ A {\bar{d}}_{\text{A}} , d ¯ A 2 {\bar{d}}_{\text{A}}^{2} , and d ¯ A 3 {\bar{d}}_{\text{A}}^{3} for micron-Al2O3/LLDPE composites.

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Rubber

The compatibilizer effect of ENR-50 on the tensile properties and morphology of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/ recycled acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBRr)/ rice husk powder (RHP) composites has been studied. The RHP size utilize in this work is 150 – 300 μm. LLDPE/NBRr/RHP composites were prepared by melt mixing technique at 180 °C for 9 minutes at 50 rpm rotor speed using heated two roll mill. The series of composites investigated were 100/0/5, 80/20/5, 70/30/5, 60/40/5, 50/50/5, and 40/60/5. The composites were analysed by using tensile test and morphology examination. The result showed that the tensile strength of composite was decreased with the increasing of recycled acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBRr) content while elongation at break (Eb) were increased. However, the tensile strength and elongation at break result for composites with ENR-50 as compatibilizer showed higher values. The morphological finding supports the tensile properties which indicate better interaction between the RHP filler and LLDPE/NBRr matrix in the presence of ENR-50 compatibilizer.
