We report a controllable nanoscale diffusion-limited chemical etching for detaching aligned polystyrene nanocones from 3D taper-nanopore alumina templates, which can be recycled.

Linear polystyrene-stabilized PdO nanoparticles (PS-PdONPs) were prepared by thermal decomposition of Pd(OAc)(2) in the presence of polystyrene. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) indicated the production of PdO nanoparticles. The loading of palladium was determined by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES). PS-PdONPs exhibited high cat...

The article deals with the production of polystyrene concrete from recycled crushed in a rotary crusher waste foam packaging. resulting can be attributed to thermal insulation, used for insulation load-bearing structures buildings, as well structural and bearing layer outer walls low-rise buildings. dependence conductivity sample on density strength has been established, resistance shock loads ...

The Non-Linear Strain Energy Equivalence Theory, a semi-empirical model, is utilized to predict longterm creep from short-term compressive stress-strain experiments conducted at different strain rates. Stress-strain experiments in uni-axial compression are performed at strain rates of 3 and 0.03 %/minute to predict creep behavior and stress-strain data at several strain rates for an immiscible ...
