Fire retardancy is of crucial importance for most the polymer applications and fire proofing materials are often based on blends with high retardants contents (up to 60wt%) which induce cost increase lower mechanical performances. The use ammonium polyphosphate (APP) as retardant allows maintaining good properties but it can be removed from matrix under hygrothermal conditions. In this context,...

Clay minerals need to be dispersed with blungers before their utilization in the related industries due plastic properties, and size reduction is carried out a wet medium. also contain impurities such as nonplastic materials structure. Mechanical dispersion parameters are important separation of clay group (halloysite kaolinite) from typical non-clayey gangue (quartz goethite). In this study, r...

A set of lab-scale experiments were designed and conducted to remedy Direct Blue 15 (DB15) dye using nontoxic halloysite nanotubes (HNT) with the view be utilized in a textile industrial effluent (TIE). The DB15 adsorbed-HNT “sludge” was used as reinforcing agent plastic waste fabricate composite. To advance knowledge further understand chemical phenomena associated adsorption on HNT, different...
