Abstract Although the wear performance of nylon-6/Boron Nitride (PA6/BN) composites has been studied, their concurrent optimization and prioritization are scarce in literature. Considering this shortcoming, paper proposes a Taguchi-Pareto-based framework incorporating discrimination signal-to-noise ratio analysis, to enhance PA6/BN composites. Besides direct factors that consider weight percent...

Neat and hybrid polyamide 12 (PA12) based powders are important raw materials for additive manufacturing. This study describes a facile method the synthesis of pure, copolymeric microparticulate on one-pot activated anionic ring-opening polymerization (AAROP) laurolactam in solution. The results reveal possibility to obtain good yields, reaction times 2 h temperatures up 110°C neat PA12 micropa...

Polyamide 6 (PA6) nanocomposites with high electrical and thermal conductive were formulated via melt processing of PA6 different inclusion reduced graphene oxide (RGO). These showed small percolation thresholds, the optimum formation links occurred 0.5 wt% ̴3.0 RGO respectively. is effective in terms stability, causing a char 6.8% only 2.0 content. The presence 3.0 enhanced conductivity by 62% ...

Orthopedic splints are external medical devices designed to support and protect the functions of human musculoskeletal system from pathological conditions or traumatic events. Tailoring these solutions morphology patient’s limb is essential ensure a correct rapid rehabilitation pathway. Although traditional splinting techniques might achieve unique fit, procedures highly dependent on skill expe...

Combining the several mixed phase structures and property profiles with a conductive, high aspect ratios nanofiller such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, black, specific morphological in melt spinning can be reached that offer much more potential for developing new functional fibers. Thus, understanding controlling filler localization inside morphology during are keys to necessary structures. Thi...

The quality of plastic gears, especially their durability, is becoming increasingly important due to advances in electric mobility. Therefore, new materials are being developed that must have better mechanical properties, high thermal conductivity for heat dissipation, and tribological properties. composites expanded graphite (EG) glass fibre-reinforced polyamide 6 (PA6/GF) were prepared, the e...
