Properties Of Composites

Shape memory composites of trans-1,4-polyisoprene (TPI) and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) with easily achievable transition temperatures were prepared by a simple physical blending method. Carbon black (CB) was introduced to improve the mechanical properties of the TPI/LDPE composites. The mechanical, cure, thermal and shape memory properties of the TPI/LDPE/CB composites were investigated in this study. In these composites, the crosslinked network generated in both the TPI and LDPE portions acted as a fixed domain, while the crystalline regions of the TPI and LDPE portions acted as a reversible domain in shape memory behavior. We found the mechanical properties of composites were promoted significantly with an increase of CB content, accompanied with the deterioration of shape memory properties of composites. When CB dosage was 5 parts per hundred of rubber composites (phr), best shape memory property of composites was obtained with a shape fixity ratio of 95.1% and a shape recovery ratio of 95.0%.

Eucommia Ulmoides Gum

A series of shape memory blends of natural Eucommia ulmoides gum (EUG) and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) with a bicontinuous cross-linked structure were prepared by a physical blending method, which could be used in the field of thermal response with two different temperatures. We report the shape memory properties of these blended materials with two response temperatures for the first time. The mechanical, curing, thermal and shape memory properties of the blends were studied in this manuscript. Schematic diagrams are proposed to illustrate the dual shape memory behaviors of the EUG/LDPE blends. Our study focused on observing the relationship between the shape memory behavior and the microscopic crystalline phase states in the blends. In the blends, both the cross-linked network and the LDPE crystalline regions could act as fixed domains, while the crystalline regions of LDPE or EUG could act as the reversible domain. The shape memory properties were mainly determined by the components of the fixed and reversible domains. We focused on the shape memory behavior of blends at 60 °C and 130 °C in this manuscript. The results showed that when the peroxide dicumyl peroxide (DCP) dosage was 1.0 phr, the blends exhibited acceptable shape behavior at 60 °C (R1f = 74.8%, R1r = 63.3%). At the same time, when DCP dosage was 0.4 phr, the shape memory behavior of the blends at 130 °C was good and much better than that at 60 °C (R2f = 91.1%, R2r = 89.4%).

Loading Amount

Effect of nanoMagnesium Hydroxide (MH) nloading amount to the mechanical and physical properties of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE)/ Poly (ethylene-co vinyl acetate)(EVA) nanocomposite has been described and investigated in this paper. The tensile strength results show that increased amount of nanofiller will decrease and deteriorate the mechanical properties. The elongation at break decreased continuously with increasing loading of nanofiller. Generally, mechanical properties become poorer as loading amount increase. Melt Flow Index values for physical properties also provide same trend as mechanical properties results. Increase filler amount reduced MFI values whereby increased resistance to the flow.

This study presents the debonding propagation in single NiTi wire shape memory alloy into linear low-density polyethylene matrix composite the study of using the pull-out test. The aim of this study is to investigate the pull-out tests to check the interfacial strength of the polymer composite in two cases, with activation NiTinol wire and without activation. In this study, shape memory alloy NiTinol wire 2 mm diameter and linear fully annealed straight shape were used. The study involved experimental and finite element analysis and eventually comparison between them. This pull-out test is considered a substantial test because its results have a relation with behavior of smart composite materials. The pull-out test was carried out by a universal tensile test machine type (Laryee), load capacity (50 kN), and a test speed of 1mm/min. The finite elements modeling was performed by ANSYS V.15. The results of pull-out test showed that in the activation of NiTinol wire embedded in host matrix linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), the deboned force was about 74 N, but for the case without activation, it was about 106 N. Deboned shear stress for the case with activation was about 0.73 MPa, but for the case of without activation, it was about 1.05 MPa. ANSYS result for deboned shear stress in case with activation was about 0.8 MPa. As for the case of without activation, deboned shear stress was about 0.99 MPa. The activation of the ratio of deboned shear stress and deboned force decreased by 30.47% and 30.13%, respectively. The error ratio between experimental and ANSYS results was equal to 8% for the case with activation and 5.7% for the case without activation.
