When TPPC content is 1 wt.%, β-phase content reached 83.2%. Piezoelectric tests indicated the films exhibited a piezoelectric coefficient of approximately 22.6 pC/N, generating an open-circuit voltage of 2.64 V and a short-circuit current of 340 nA under an applied pressure of 79.1 kPa. Consequently, pulsating elongational processing enables scalable manufacturing of high-performance PVDF-based piezoelectric films.","PeriodicalId":508263,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147883966","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}

Additionally, their usage environments are often contaminated with pathogenic bacteria. Traditional antibacterial strategies typically rely on materials like pentachlorophenol and N-methylolacrylamide, but these substances increase user risks of allergies and other diseases. To address these limitations, this study synthesizes polymethyl methacrylate-polystyrene (PMMA-PS) and polymethyl methacrylate-chitosan oligosaccharide (PMMA-COS) nanoparticle emulsions via emulsion polymerization. Under conventional direct deposition methods, poor interfacial compatibility between the membrane materials causes extensive delamination of the deposited layer from the natural latex surface during long-term use, thereby deteriorating overall mechanical performance. To mitigate this, PMMA-PS is first blended with pre-vulcanized natural rubber latex (SPNR). The addition of PMMA-PS enhances film mechanical properties due to the excellent compatibility between PMMA-PS and PMMA-COS emulsions, which fosters a more stable phase structure during blending and deposition. Leveraging COS’s ability to improve surface antibacterial property, PMMA-COS dispersion is deposited onto PMMA-PS∼SPNR blend films, yielding PMMA-COS/PMMA-PS∼SPNR composite films with enhanced mechanical properties, physical stability, and reduced safety concerns. This research provides scientifically valuable findings and quantitative evidence for improving the antibacterial and mechanical performance of natural medical latex products (e.g., condoms, medical gloves) and the stability of nanocoatings on their surfaces.","PeriodicalId":508263,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147879625","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}

In this investigation, a biocomposite was fabricated using recycled polypropylene (RPP) reinforced with oyster shell (OS) particles. The introduction of OS bio-fillers is aimed to mitigate plastic shrinkage during the injection molding process, with two different proportions employed: 10wt.% and 30wt.%. The biocomposite was characterized thermally and mechanically. Thermal analysis by TGA showed that the bio-fillers increased the degradation temperature of the recycled polypropylene biocomposite. Mechanical assessments demonstrated an enhancement in polypropylene stiffness by 10.4% and microhardness by 21.1%, albeit at the cost of reduced ductility. Conversely, the tensile strength and impact resistance decreased slightly with the incorporation of OS particles in RPP. Dynamic mechanical analysis indicated an improvement in the storage modulus up to 1.45 GPa of the biocomposite with the reinforcement of OS particles. These findings underscore the potential for integrating recycled polypropylene with natural reinforcements, aligning with the global pursuit of environmentally sustainable materials in diverse industrial applications.","PeriodicalId":508263,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141921145","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 research addresses challenges related to achieving consistent mass across lattice structures due to manufacturing parameters. Discrepancies in flexural rigidity and compression behavior among the produced models trigger an exploration into the influence of design factors. The study reveals significant insights into the mechanical properties of six complex lattice structures produced through FDM 3D printing. The Tetrahedron-Cubic lattice stands out with superior bending rigidity at 15.36 N/mm, and variations in performance are attributed to layer orientation and material anisotropy. Specific energy absorption reaches its peak in the Tetrahedron-Cubic lattice at 38.54 J/g. These conclusive results provide considerations for future design and optimization.

Our study aims to investigate specific plaster properties while reducing the rate at which end-of-life plastic is rejected in nature. This manuscript explores a gypsum composite reinforced with plastic waste (GPPS), with an emphasis on thermo-physical, chemical, and mechanical characteristics. Ten samples were produced, with varying addition rates (0%, 5%, 10%, and 15%) by weight of GPPS waste, incorporating three different sizes of GPPS aggregates (δ ≤ 1 mm; 1 mm < δ ≤ 1.25 mm; and 1.6 mm < δ ≤ 3 mm). The results demonstrate that the gradual increase in the quantity of GPPS aggregates incorporated into the plaster matrix produced a notable enhancement in thermal properties. However, this resulted in a slight decrease in mechanical performance due to a loss of workability. In general, the material evolution indicated that the inclusion of 15% size 2 GPPS was concluded to be the optimal arrangement for effectively reducing both thermal and mechanical qualities. Specifically, density, conductivity, and thermal diffusivity were decreased by approximately 20.73%, 42.47%, and 53.57%, respectively, while compressive strength decreased by 15.73% (6.64 MPa), a tolerable value according to the EN 13279 standard.","PeriodicalId":508263,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites","volume":"13 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141926037","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}

Present paper has been focused on investigating the strain rate effects on mechanical properties of pristine nylon-6 and 20% glass reinforced nylon-6 material fabricated using injection molding and SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) printing manufacturing methods, respectively, at three strain rates of 0.0003, 0.003, and 0.01 per second. Tensile strength of injection molded nylon-6 has shown a positive relationship with strain rate whereas compressive strength has shown a reciprocal effect. At highest strain rate of 0.01 s−1, tensile strength exhibits 10.27% more as compared to lowest strain rate of 0.0003 s−1. Tensile strength at highest strain rate is found 60 MPa whereas at lowest strain rate it exhibits 54.41 MPa. At higher values of strain rate, rising of maximum strain is found very much sensitive than the rise in tensile strength. It also shows high percentage of deformation at higher value of strain rate. On the other hand, SLS printed 20% glass reinforced nylon-6 shows variable tensile strength with respect to strain rate due to uneven distribution of glass particles into nylon matrix created due to manufacturing process of SLS printing. FESEM images shows the cavity formation as observed before loading conditions whereas the glass fracturing phenomenon observed at the after loading conditions. However, compressive strength is found minimal with strain rate with an average value of 175.61 MPa. The findings of this study have contributed in avoiding the improper selection of material and its strain rate application during numerical modeling for industrial application purpose.","PeriodicalId":508263,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites","volume":"23 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140674204","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}
