Three-Phase Characterization of Uniaxially Stretched Linear Low-Density Polyethylene

Preparation and characterization of self-cleaning stable superhydrophobic linear low-density polyethylene.

Porous superhydrophobic linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) surface was prepared by a simple method. Its water contact angle and sliding angle were 153±2° and 10°, respectively. After contamination, 99% of the contaminant particles were removed from the superhydrophobic LLDPE surface using artificial rain. The superhydrophobic LLDPE surface showed high stability in the pH range from 2 to 13...

Characterization of Melting Phenomena in Linear Low Density Polyethylene by Modulated Dsc

Grafting of Acrylamide to Low Density Polyethylene During Melt Processing

Acrylamide was grafted in low density polyethylene during melt processing in the presence of a free radical initiator using a torque rheometer in a closed system. Effects of processing time, acrylamide and benzoyl peroxide concentrations were studied. FTIR studies revealed that the degree of grafting increased by an increase in acrylamide concentration. Maximum grafting was obtained at 7 mi...

steady state simulation of two-gas phase fluidized bed reactors in series for producing linear low density polyethylene

a linear low density polyethylene (lldpe) production process, including two- fuidized bed reactors in series (fbrs) and other process equipment, was completely simulated by aspen polymer plus software. fluidized bed reactors were considered as continuous stirred tank reactors (cstr consisted of polymer and gas phases). poly-srk and nrtl-rk equations of state were used to describe polymer and no...

Catalytic conversion of waste low density polyethylene into fuel oil

Waste Low density polyethylenes (LDPE) represent a source of energy and valuablechemicals, were pyrolysed catalytically in a batch reactor under atmospheric pressure. Calciumcarbide was used as a catalyst to explore its effect on pyrolysis product distribution. The effect oftemperature, amount of catalyst and time on the yields of the pyrolysed products wasinvestigated. The effect of catalyst o...
