In the domestic production of recycled plastics, it is difficult to separate olefin polymers such as polyethylene and polypropylene. Therefore, prerequisite for identifying cargo-solid waste properties plastics determine polymer composition. this paper, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used detect polypropylene content in blends. Under 2%-8% content, an exponential relationship shown...

In this study we evaluated the tribological performance of polypropylene composites with wood-flour fillers obtained as a by-product from wood-processing industry, which were based on unrecycled and recycled polymer matrices. The mechanical properties polypropylene-wood wood-filler loadings 0–40 wt % determined tensile tests their friction wear behaviours studied dry reciprocating ball-on-disc ...

As well known, the transportation industry and its related infrastructure including railway roads, require very high construction costs. In addition, excessive use of natural resources energy for maintenance has highlighted need adapting purposeful planning with regards to sustainability impacts. infrastructure, focus should be minimize consumption, Greenhouse Gas emissions other environmental ...

This work investigated the effect of thermo-oxidation aging in blends copolymer polypropylene (PPc)/recycled (PPcr) from industrial container waste, coded as PPc/PPcr blends. All compounds were melt extruded, and injection molded specimens characterized by mechanical properties (tensile impact), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), flow index (MFI), contact angle, heat deflection tem...
