Abstract—In order to use bitumen in hot mix asphalt, it must have specific characteristics. There are some methods to reach these properties. Using polymer modifiers are one of the methods to modify the bitumen properties. In this paper the effect of StyreneButadiene-Rubber that is one of the bitumen polymer modifiers on rheology properties of bitumen is studied. In this regard, the rheological...

Organic-inorganic membranes were obtained by stepwise modification of poly(ethyleneterephthalate) track membrane with nanoparticles of zirconium hydrophosphate. The modifier was inserted inside pores of the polymer, a size of which is 0.33 μm. Inner active layer was formed by this manner. Evolution of morphology and functional properties of the membranes were investigated using methods of poros...

Organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices based on the copper (II) phthalocyanine(CuPc)/ fullerene(C60) system are an innovative photovoltaic technology optimal for situations requiring low-cost, transparent, and flexible devices. Furthermore, the high degree of reproducibility of this system allows for the ready study of new OPV technologies. Here, we have used this system to elucidate systematic str...

High performance polymers possessing superior mechanical properties may replace metal components and improve machine efficiency. Successful replacement, however, relies on the compatibility of these with current engineering systems, including lubricants their additives. This study examines two high polymers, polyetheretherketone (PEEK) polyamide-imide (PAI), glycerol monooleate (GMO), an organi...

with respect to the physical and mechanical limited qualities of bitumen, it benefits from certain specificability in application and its life service. polymers as the most important modifiers of bitumen are applied to it in order to improve its functional efficiency. among various polymers, styrene-butadiene- styrene (sbs) is the best modifier of the bitumen. in this work, sbs polymer as one o...

The use of chromatographic stationary phases or solvent modifiers to modulate diffusion properties in NMR experiments is now well established. Their use can be to improve resolution in the diffusion domain or to provide an insight into analyte-modifier interactions and hence the chromatography process. Here we extend previous work using size-exclusion chromatographic (SEC) stationary phases to ...
