Sago starch was esterified by maleic anhydride, resulting in the presence of ester groups on the starch structure. Filled RPUFs were prepared with 0.5-7.0 wt% of starch fillers in the polyol component. The influence of filler type and content on the cell morphology and properties of the RPUFs was analyzed. The results revealed that the esterified sago starch showed better compatibility with polyurethane matrix than the sago starch, which in turn impacted the cellular morphology and physico-mechanical properties of the resulting RPUFs. The density and compressive strength of the RPUFs filled with esterified sago starch were higher than those filled with unmodified sago starch, while their water absorption, and volume shrinkage were lower. The findings also suggested that the compressive strength and density of filled RPUFs increased with starch filler content up to the optimal point and then decreased. This was due to the impact of filler content on cell size, with smaller cell size at low filler content leading to increased strength and density, whereas larger cell size and more open cells at higher filler content reducing strength and density. The best properties were obtained with 1.0 wt% of unmodified sago starch and 0.5 wt% of esterified sago starch in the polyol component.","PeriodicalId":15236,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cellular Plastics","volume":"109 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139154820","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research has shown the remarkable properties of these foams in terms of thermal and sound insulation and fire retardancy that can be enhanced by incorporating carbon fillers such as graphite, graphene, and biochar. Several methods have been examined by researchers to mix carbon with the polystyrene matrix and prepare PS carbon composite foams, which can broadly be categorized into suspension polymerization, solution mixing and melt blending. These methodologies along with foaming techniques for the expansion of PS using various blowing agents are reviewed. We also review the most relevant research studies in the field of PS carbon composite foams for insulation (thermal and sound) and fire retardancy. Due to its high infrared radiation absorption capacity and hetero nucleating action, expandable graphite and graphene can lead to excellent thermal and sound insulation along with fire retardancy in a PS foam, thus resulting in significant energy savings in a building. Biochar, due to its inherent low thermal conductivity and nucleating action, modifies the foam morphology, leading to enhanced heat and sound absorption and thus is a low-cost renewable carbon alternative that promotes the circular economy.","PeriodicalId":15236,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cellular Plastics","volume":"24 1","pages":"419 - 453"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139291199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, high impact polystyrene (HIPS) is added to PP to widen the polypropylene foaming temperature range by reducing the temperature sensitivity of the melt strength of the blend. The behavior of crystalline, dynamic rheology, and extensional rheological of PP/HIPS blends are analyzed. The results show that the crystallinity and crystallization temperature of PP/HIPS blends decreased significantly, the temperature dependence of the blends’ extensional viscosity and melt strength became weaker, and the activation energy of extensional viscosity and melt strength activation energy decreased, while the elastic modulus and viscosity and the system relaxation time increased. It means that the addition of HIPS reduces the crystallinity of PP, improves the cell morphology and to a certain extent overcomes the problem of a sharp decrease in PP melt strength with increasing temperature. The addition of HIPS extends the foaming temperature range of the PP material from 4 K to a maximum of 12 K. Furthermore, we simply estimated the temperature window for extruded foams using the Arrhenius equation. The estimated values have the same trend as the experimental results and are analyzed.","PeriodicalId":15236,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cellular Plastics","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84371317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Introducing long chain branching (LCB) onto the PP backbone and the addition of particles as cell nucleating agent are the commonly used methods to improve the cell structure of PP foams. In this paper, clay-supported sodium benzoate (NaB-OMMT) was prepared from Na-montmorillonite (Na-MMT) via the partial ion exchange reaction with surfactant and subsequent reaction with benzoic acid. The as prepared NaB-OMMTs were then applied to prepare LCBPP/NaB-OMMT nanocomposites and their foams. The dispersion state of clay, crystallization behaviors and rheological properties of the nanocomposites, as well as the cell structure and compression properties of the foams were investigated. The results show that clay layers are mostly exfoliated in the nanocomposites with low NaB-OMMT content, while intercalated layers dominant with the content reaches 2% or higher. The melting temperature of the nanocomposites decreases and the crystallinity increases, while the spherulite size decreases compared to LCBPP. The melt viscosity and elasticity of nanocomposites increase significantly when the content of NaB-OMMT reaches 2% or higher. LCBPP/NaB-OMMT nanocomposites foams exhibit higher cell density, smaller cell size and its standard deviation. Therein, the foam with 1% of NaB-OMMT shows the maximum cell density and the minimum cell size. It is concluded that the cell structure of the foam is highly dependent on the content, dispersion state and structure of the cell nucleating agent. When NaB is supported on well dispersed and exfoliated clay layers, the cell nucleation efficiency is significantly enhanced. The compression properties of the foams depend on their cell structures and exhibit the similar variation trend with the latter with the content of NaB-OMMT increasing.","PeriodicalId":15236,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cellular Plastics","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89147943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results confirmed that the void fraction, cell density, bubble size and cell size distribution of foams are optimal against CNT loading. The lightest LDPE/EVA/CNT foam was obtained by the CNT localization in the LDPE matrix. This foam containing 2.5 phr of CNT had smaller cells and more uniform cell size comparing to the pure blend foam. The cell density of this foam was 1.598 × 106 cells/cm3, which is much larger than that for the blend foam, 8.64 × 105 cells/cm3.

The findings clarify the profound impact of the nanofiller localization state on the foam properties of the binary polymeric systems.

Meanwhile, water is the most common chemical blowing agent that is cheap and also environment neutral. Herein, the co-blowing performances of the two types of blowing agents were investigated. For the polyether polyol or castor oil derived polyol foaming systems, which were blended just before foaming, the consequent co-blown foams surprisingly did not possess lower densities than the control foams blown solely by water, showing an antagonistic effect in blowing performance. The relatively large particles (e.g. tens of micrometers) of the hydrophilic PEI-CO2 blowing agents absorbed water from the foaming mixtures, preventing the trapped water from chemically blowing PUs. After the foams were set, the absorbed water gradually diffused out to react with the residual isocyanate groups, which no longer contributed to PU foaming. Differently, after aging the castor oil derived polyol foaming mixtures (without water and isocyanate components that were added before PU foaming), the dispersed PEI-CO2 particles decreased in size down to nanoscale (about 20–180 nm). These nanoparticles were small enough for out-diffusion of the absorbed water, which generated foaming CO2 in time. The densities of the resultant foams could be lowered to the theoretical values. The additive effect with water could enhance the application freedom of the climate-friendly alkylated PEI-CO2 blowing agents.","PeriodicalId":15236,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cellular Plastics","volume":"54 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76662721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this type of application, in engineering analysis and design, it is required to know the mechanical response to compression of this type of material, since energy parameters that support the analysis of the effectiveness of a design are derived from it. One of these parameters is strain hysteresis, through which it is possible to know how capable a material is of absorbing energy. The modeling and prediction of this parameter is a challenge from the analysis point of view. This contribution presents a method based on feed-forward artificial neural network models that address a modeling approach to derive this parameter from the mechanical response of expanded polystyrene foam. From this, models are constructed that can predict the response of such material to various density and loading rate conditions. The best of a total of 30 neural network models, which are capable of deriving energy parameters such as hysteresis, is chosen. The results show that this approach is valid for the deformation energy analysis of expanded polystyrene foams since results consistent with the material phenomenology and errors of less than 3% with respect to experimental data are obtained.","PeriodicalId":15236,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cellular Plastics","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78467214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
