In recent years, a growing number of studies investigated the presence micro- and nanoscopic particles in environment originating from commonly used plastics. Pathways into generation mechanisms are still not well understood. Controlled methods macroplastics required to enable research fundamental processes governing dispersion these environment. Here, we present results study focusing on chara...

The present study deals with the quasi-static and high strain rate characterization of Kevlar-129 based thermoplastic composites. Two different matrices, namely, Polypropylene (PP) Polyetherimide (PEI) were used to manufacture composite laminates. Quasi-static compression tests performed at rates 0.041 s ?1 0.045 . High using a split Hopkinson pressure bar apparatus within ranging from 2548 437...

Front Cover: Article 2200972 by Tiejun Wang and co-workers proposes a reactive blending strategy to develop thermoplastic-thermoset blends with enhanced compatibility based on dynamic bond exchange reactions at the interface. This work offers an innovative way design fabricate new polymeric materials thermoplastics thermosets. It also suggests facile direction towards upcycling
