The current study’s objective is to investigate the impact of nanoclay on tensile and wear properties glass fiber-epoxy-nanoclay ternary nanocomposite. Three types composites are produced by hand lay-up process compression molding. Tensile tests executed according ASTM standards. findings disclosed that enhanced causes for failure under load revealed SEM micrographs. Response surface methodolog...

Bone tissue engineering implants with sustained local drug delivery provide an opportunity for better postoperative care for bone tumor patients because these implants offer sustained drug release at the tumor site and reduce systemic side effects. A rapid prototyped macroporous polycaprolactone scaffold was embedded with a porous matrix composed of chitosan, nanoclay, and β-tricalcium phosphat...

Kannan, Ph.D.Major: Biomedical EngineeringDegree: Doctor of PhilosophyNumerous clinical situations necessitate the use of bone graft materials to enhance boneformation. While autologous and all...

To apply the nanomaterial as a component in the packaging material structure, in this research, the carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film were prepared with three levels of nanoclay particles (0.5, 1 and 3%) using solution casting evaporation method. The incorporation of nanoclay on mechanical, water vapor permeability, and oxygen barrier properties of CMC/PVA-based film wa...

The carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film were prepared by adding three levels of nanoclay particles (0.5, 1 and 3%) using solution casting evaporation method. The incorporation of nanoclay on mechanical, water vapor permeability, and oxygen barrier properties of CMC/PVA-based film was investigated. The best result was obtained through the nanocomposite film contain 3% nano...

The effects of three different mixers, two different feeding orders and nanoclay content on the structure development and rheological properties of PE/nanoclay nanocomposite samples were investigated. Fractional Zener and Carreau–Yasuda models were applied to discuss the melt linear viscoelastic properties of the samples. Moreover, scaling law for fractal networks was used to quantify clay disp...

in this research, the effect of nanoclay on physiochemical, thermal and structural properties of urea formaldehyde resin (uf) was investigated. the prepared gluf resin was mixed mechanically with the 0.5, 1 and 1.5% nanoclay for 5 min at room temperature. the physicochemical properties of the prepared resins were measured according to standard methods. also, the thermal and structural changes i...

Create three-dimensional network of siloxane polymer in the epoxy resin is an appropriate mechanical properties .Dispersion of nanoclay in these coating was prepared by ultrasonication method. Mechanical properties of nanocomposit coatings such as abrasion, hardness and adhesion was increased by addition of nanoclay montmorillonite. Different percentages of nanoclay in coating showed that even ...

in this study, the effect of nanoclay particles content on the physical properties and flammability of composite made of high density polyethylene and wood flour was investigated. for this aim, wood flour was combined with hdpe at 50% by weight, and nanoclay was used in 0, 2, 4 and 6%, also 2% of mape as the coupling agent was used in all formulations. the samples were made in injection molding...
