Abstract

By increasing usage of polymers, environmental problems for them increase. The polymers that after usage, contribute to these issues, their preparation process may generate wastage, that affects production. In the production of expandable polystyrene (EPS), several batches on batch were discharged due to disruption in suspension, and the presence of these wastages in the production place can cause problems. This study tries to introduce a new polymer with special features by mixing different percentages of this polymer (10, 20, 30) with ABS polymer. According to the fact that disarray can occur in 60, 63, 66, and 69% of the polymerization, the polymerization continued until those percentages and then mixed with ABS. Different tests (like: Elongation at break, yellow index, Modular melt flow, Impact test, and Vicat softening temperature) was performed for mixed polymer. The results show that in some materials the quality of the mixed polymer may decrease but it is still in an acceptable range. The Multi-Layer Perceptron method of Artificial Neural Networks has been used in order to simulate data that has not been tested.

应用人工神经网络通过多级引发剂配料制备可膨胀聚苯乙烯/丙烯腈-丁二烯-苯乙烯

随着聚合物使用量的增加，环境问题也随之增加。聚合物在使用后会产生这些问题，其制备过程可能会产生废料，从而影响生产。在生产可发性聚苯乙烯（EPS）的过程中，由于悬浮液的干扰，一些批次的产品被排出，这些废料在生产场所的存在可能会造成问题。本研究试图引入一种具有特殊功能的新型聚合物，将这种聚合物与 ABS 聚合物以不同比例（10、20、30）混合。根据聚合 60%、63%、66% 和 69%时会出现混乱的事实，聚合一直持续到这些百分比，然后与 ABS 混合。不同的测试（如对混合聚合物进行了不同的测试（如：断裂伸长率、黄色指数、模块化熔体流动、冲击测试和维卡软化温度）。结果表明，在某些材料中，混合聚合物的质量可能会下降，但仍在可接受的范围内。为了模拟未经测试的数据，使用了人工神经网络的多层感知器方法。

期刊介绍： Cellular Polymers is concerned primarily with the science of foamed materials, the technology and state of the art for processing and fabricating, the engineering techniques and principles of the machines used to produce them economically, and their applications in varied and wide ranging uses where they are making an increasingly valuable contribution. Potential problems for the industry are also covered, including fire performance of materials, CFC-replacement technology, recycling and environmental legislation. Reviews of technical and commercial advances in the manufacturing and application technologies are also included. Cellular Polymers covers these and other related topics and also pays particular attention to the ways in which the science and technology of cellular polymers is being developed throughout the world.
