Rubber Phase

Thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) are a specific group of the so called thermoplastic elastomers. The main characteristic is the existence of a crosslinked rubber phase obtained by dynamic vulcanization in the presence of the thermoplastic matrix. This article studies TPVs based on ground tyre rubber (GTR), high-density polyethylene, and ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber. Vulcanization is performed by a new peroxide developed to resist high temperatures and an standard one. The aim of this study is optimize the formulation in order to include GTR, while maintaining a good balance of properties in the final TPV material. The use of GTR would improve the possibilities of recovering tyre waste. A detailed study regarding the influence of each component in the final mechanical properties has been carried out. The swelling properties, ATR infrared spectroscopy, TGA, and DSC analysis indicated a high degree of crosslink and good adhesion between the matrix and the rubber phase. Morphology of the composites was assessed by scanning electron microscopy. A composite containing a combination of peroxides and 40/30/30 of HDPE, EPDM, and GTR was found to show a good balance of characteristics regarding mechanical properties, crosslinking, and adhesion between phases.

Cadmium telluride has become increasingly important in a number of technological applications, particularly in the area of laser-optical components and solid state devices, Microstructural characterizations of the material have in the past been somewhat limited because of the lack of suitable sample preparation and thinning techniques. Utilizing a modified jet thinning apparatus and a potassium dichromate-sulfuric acid thinning solution, a procedure has now been developed for obtaining thin contamination-free samples for TEM examination.

Adhesive Bonded Joints

Durability of adhesive bonded joints in moisture and salt spray environments is essential to USAF aircraft. Structural bonding technology for aerospace applications has depended for many years on the preparation of aluminum surfaces by a sulfuric acid/sodium dichromate (FPL etch) treatment. Recently, specific thin film anodizing techniques, phosphoric acid, and chromic acid anodizing have been developed which not only provide good initial bond strengths but vastly improved environmental durability. These thin anodic films are in contrast to the commonly used thick anodic films such as the sulfuric acid or "hard" sulfuric acid anodic films which are highly corrosion resistant in themselves, but which do not provide good initial bond strengths, particularly in low temperature peel.The objective of this study was to determine the characteristics of anodic films on aluminum alloys that make them corrosion resistant. The chemical composition, physical morphology and structure, and mechanical properties of the thin oxide films were to be defined and correlated with the environmental stability of these surfaces in humidity and salt spray. It is anticipated that anodic film characteristics and corrosion resistance will vary with the anodizing processing conditions.
