The physico-mechanical and flame retardation properties of the composites were investigated. Properties such as tensile strength, elongation at break, flexural strength, and modulus as well as water absorbency were determined and the results obtained were analyzed. The composites were further characterized by SEM and FTIR analyses to study the surface morphology and evidence of composite formation respectively. The Young modulus of reinforced composites were greater than that of virgin samples. The fiber/Polypropylene samples were observed to have the highest value of Young modulus, with a value of 133.33 GPa, and tensile strength value of 16.93 MPa. TGA and flame retardant tests were carried out to investigate the flame propagation and thermal properties of the composites. The results showed that the mechanical properties of composites from polypropylene were better enhanced than those from the composites of polyethylene, with an overall increase in mechanical properties when compared to the virgin polymers used. From the TGA and flame retardant test, it was observed that the more the fiber load the more the formation of char layers in the samples, hence retards the flame formation and reduced prolonged burning and flame propagation.","PeriodicalId":19641,"journal":{"name":"Ovidius University Annals of Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82555792","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Different methods have been previously employed to proffer solution to plastic wastes problem however, all showed their energetic, economic and environmental implications. In this research, catalytic pyrolysis of low density polyethylene and polypropylene wastes was carried out to proffer solution to the problem. The plastic materials were collected and appropriately prepared after which ultimate and proximate analysis was carried out on them. The clay was collected from Naka, Gwer West Local Government Area of Benue State, Nigeria, thereafter, referred to as N-clay and was appropriately prepared, then analyzed by a BET analyzer for the following properties: the surface area, which was found to be 85.418 m2/g, pore size 2.100 nm and pore volume of 0.042 cc/g. Also, the XRF determination of the chemical composition of the N-clay was done and the SiO2/Al2O3 ratio was found to be 70.81/29.19. The N-clay and the plastics were then pyrolyzed in a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor in the ratio 1:3 respectively, at 500 oC with residence time of 30 min using nitrogen as purge gas. The polypropylene yielded 70.34 % liquid oil, 6.43 % char and 23.23 % gas. The liquid was analyzed for functional groups, using Raman spectrometer. Physicochemical analysis was also done on the oil and it was determined that the oil had properties consistent with commercial-grade gasoline. The low density polyethylene yielded wax, instead of liquid, char and gas. Finally, it was concluded that the N-clay was suitable as catalyst for the pyrolysis of plastics and the fuel oil obtained from polypropylene pyrolysis is comparable to gasoline fuel.","PeriodicalId":19641,"journal":{"name":"Ovidius University Annals of Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84003105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, poly(ε-caprolactone) azido (PCL-N3) was acquired using ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone and 2-[2-(2-azidoethoxy)ethoxy]ethanol (N3ol). N3ol was obtained using sodium azide and 2-[2-(2-chloroethoxy)ethoxy]ethanol. 4-(prop-2-ynyloxy)-phthalonitrile was obtained by using 4-nitrophthalonitrile and propargyl alcohol. 2(3),9(10),16(17),23(24) Tetrakis-[(prop-2-ynyloxy)-phthalocyaninato]zinc(II) (Pc-propargyl) was synthesized by using 4-(prop-2-ynyloxy)-phthalonitrile and a metal salt. By reacting Pc-propargyl and PCL-N3, PCL tetra-arm star polymer was obtained by “click” chemistry. The products were characterized via scanning electron microscopy, 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and gel permeation chromatography instruments. The spectroscopic analyses of PCL tetra-arm star polymer prove that the star polymer was built through the combination of ROP and “click” chemistry. We provided a protocol for PCL tetra-arm star polymer, and a statement of reproducibility with respect to the properties of this tetra-arm star polymer. This study is an example of a novel type of combination reaction, from ring-opening polymerization to “click” chemistry using phthalocyanine. This can open the door for diverse tetra-arm star polymer synthesis that could potentially cause major advances in synthetic macromolecular chemistry.","PeriodicalId":19641,"journal":{"name":"Ovidius University Annals of Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79569865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Apple juice contains sugars, malic acid, soluble pectin, vitamin C, phytochemicals and minerals. The production process influences the juice composition. There is a growing market for natural cloudy apple juice, even though fruit juice is mostly consumed as clear juice. The aim of this study was to obtain cloudy apple juice by using a blender and a cold pressing juicer for extraction and to evaluate their physico-chemical and sensory qualities. The apple juice samples were obtained from three different apple cultivars: “Gala”, “Braeburn” and “Golden Delicious”. After extraction, apple juice samples were pasteurized and cooled. In this study, physico-chemical analyzes (like moisture, water activity, pH, titratable acidity, total soluble solids, electrical conductivity, color parameters) were performed immediately after processing and at 7, 14, 21 days of storage at room temperature. The results showed that the investigated parameters of the apple juice samples varied differently depending on both the apple cultivar and the processing method used. Sensory analysis showed that certain types of apples can be suitable for extracting juice using a blender (“Golden Delicious”), while others such as “Gala” apples can be used to obtain juice by cold pressing.","PeriodicalId":19641,"journal":{"name":"Ovidius University Annals of Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88897577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to investigate the potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and phytochemical analyses of methanol extract of ripe and unripe peels of Ananas comosus (L.) Merr. The antioxidant properties were investigated through the analyses of ferric ion reducing antioxidant capacities, ascorbic acid equivalent antioxidant capacities, and nitric oxide scavenging capacities of the extracts. The anti-inflammatory potentials of the extracts were assessed through albumin denaturation inhibition and proteinase inhibition assays. Further investigation was carried out on the phytochemical composition of the extracts. There was no significant difference in the antioxidant potentials of the extracts assessed through the reduction of ferric ion. However, the ascorbic acid equivalent capacities and nitric oxide scavenging potential revealed that the antioxidant potentials of the extract of the unripe peel of A. comosus were significantly higher (p < 0.05) than the antioxidant potentials of the extract of ripe peel. Albumin denaturation inhibitory potential was significantly higher (p < 0.05), but there was no significant difference in the protease inhibitory potentials of both extracts. The estimated amounts of total flavonoids present in the extract of ripe peel of A. comosus were significantly higher (p < 0.05) than the estimates in the extract of unripe peels. This study gave a comprehensive insight into the antioxidant properties, anti-inflammatory properties and phytochemical compositions of the methanol extracts of the peels of ripe and unripe A. comosus which could be exploited as an alternative and complementary medicine in the treatment of different ailments associated with inflammatory disorders.","PeriodicalId":19641,"journal":{"name":"Ovidius University Annals of Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91278587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
