However, there are not enough studies on the effects of solid lubricants on particle erosion. This study investigated the effects on solid particle erosion behavior of three different well known solid lubricants (molybdenum disulfide, polytetrafluoroethylene, and graphite). These solid lubricants were added at three different ratios (5, 10, and 15 wt.%) to the two different type (rigid and toughened) epoxy resins. Garnet abrasive particles (180–400 μm) were blasted to the sample surface under 1.5 bar for 15 s to conduct solid particle erosion tests. The erosive wear mechanisms of neat and solid lubricant-reinforced epoxy resins were investigated in relation to the epoxy type, solid lubricant type, and solid lubricant reinforcement ratio. Statistical analysis was performed according to response surface methodology to support the experimental results, and ANOVA tables were obtained. The wear and deformations that occurred on the surface after solid particle erosion were examined using a noncontact optical profilometer system and scanning electron microscopy, and a significant relationship was detected between the deformation on the surface and particle erosion. Analysis results showed that the factor causing the greatest erosion rate change was the epoxy resin type. Finally, it has been observed that all solid lubricants reduce the erosive wear resistance, and this resistance decreases as the weight ratio increases.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Highlights</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <div>\u0000 <ul>\u0000 \u0000 <li>Investigations were conducted into the erosion behavior of two types of epoxy resins: rigid and toughened.

In this study, we propose an innovative approach aimed at augmenting the thermal conductivity of flexible composite films, employing reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the constituent materials. The fabrication process involves the utilization of solution casting coupled with a low-temperature chemical reduction method for graphene oxide (GO). Given that the high thermal conductivity of polymer nanocomposites typically correlates with increased crystallinity and reduced defects, our primary objective is to investigate the impact of reduction of GO in order to associate enhance crystallinity within the graphene oxide-polymer system, with the overall increased thermal conductivity of the resulting GO/PVA films. The diethylene glycol-GO/PVA films thus, generated through this methodology exhibit an exceptional thermal conductivity of approximately 5.1 W/mK, achieved with a mere 10 wt.% filler loading. This surpasses the thermal conductivity observed in films comprised solely of GO/PVA. The notable enhancement in thermal conductivity can be attributed to several factors, including improved crystallinity and reduced defects of GO with effective polymeric bridging facilitated by the rGO with PVA.

The <i>T</i>₁₀ and <i>T</i>_max values of this sample in the air atmosphere were found to be 45 and 37°C higher, respectively, than those of BPAI. Comparative to neat BPAI, the THR and HRC values of the mentioned sample were reduced by 43.6% and 45.7%, respectively. These results demonstrated the significant synergistic effect of the TML structure in enhancing the thermal and combustion resistance of BPAI.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Highlights</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <div>\u0000 <ul>\u0000 \u0000 <li>Preparation of LDH on a Mg(OH)₂/tannic acid as multifunctional nanofiller.</li>\u0000 \u0000 <li>Self-assembling nanofiller including tannic acid-modified LDH-supported MDH.</li>\u0000 \u0000 <li>A synthesized bisphenol A based poly(amide-imide) (BPAI).</li>\u0000 \u0000 <li>Effect of the nanofiller on the thermal and combustion resistance of BPAI.</li>\u0000 </ul>\u0000 </div>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":17662,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vinyl & Additive Technology","volume":"30 5","pages":"1221-1240"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141191202","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, we designed and synthesized three cardanol-piperidine derivatives (HSs) by utilizing hydrogenated cardanol (HC) and piperidine derivatives to improve the aging inhibition of polypropylene (PP). These bio-based antioxidants were intended as eco-friendly alternatives to conventional synthetic antioxidants. The impact of these HSs on the thermal stability, thermo-oxidative stability, and light stability of PP was thoroughly evaluated. The results unveiled that after 5 h of interaction with 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free radical, HSs exhibited a remarkable over 5-fold increase in free radical scavenging efficiency as compared to HC. Moreover, the addition of HSs significantly increased the oxidation induction time and the initial oxidation temperature compared to pristine PP. After photo-oxidative aging and thermo-oxidative aging, the HS-dosed PP demonstrated remarkable retention of elongation at break, reaching more than 72% and 69%. From the comparison with physical mixtures and the density functional theory calculations, an intramolecular synergism mechanism is proposed. The intramolecular synergism between hydrogenated cardanol and piperidine derivatives may be the main reason for the inhibition of PP aging.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Highlights</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <div>\u0000 <ul>\u0000 \u0000 <li>A method for constructing simultaneous efficient light, thermal, and oxygen stable polypropylene.</li>\u0000 \u0000 <li>The mechanism for achieving simultaneous stabilization of light, heat, and oxygen is the intramolecular synergy of phenol piperidine.</li>\u0000 \u0000 <li>The essence of intramolecular synergy of cardanol and piperidine derivatives is its' reduced hydrogen bond dissociation energy and energy gap.</li>\u0000 </ul>\u0000 </div>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":17662,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vinyl & Additive Technology","volume":"30 5","pages":"1207-1220"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141122365","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}
