In this research, the effects of zinc stearate addition on paraffin wax degradation were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry (TG). The apparent activation energies of wax decomposition ...

Polypropylene films obtained during the biaxial orientation process were characterized by energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), scanning electron microscopy. X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, infrared ...

In this study a practical method for measurement of heat of adsorption of water vapour on adsorbents was developed to evaluate the feasibility of substitution of a zeolitic tuff with zeolite 4A in air drying and heat pumps. ...

In this study, effects of Ca/Zn stearate and organotin heat stabilizers and zeolite, CaCO3, cellulose and luffa flours fillers, and their concentrations (2.5, 5, 10 and 20% by weight) on production of flexible PVC foams ...

Water and water vapor sorption to porous poly(propylene)zeolite composites prepared by hot pressing have been studied as a function of zeolite loading. This work presents the first report on the effect of the zeolite as a ...

Adsorption of water vapour on wool provides not only textile comfort, but also convenience in transportation due to increase in its bulk density. The adsorption and desorption isotherms of water vapour for wool were ...

The cure kinetics of epoxy resin and epoxy resin containing 10 mass% of natural zeolite were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The conformity of the cure kinetic data of epoxy and epoxy-zeolite ...

Supercritical carbon dioxide (CO 2) drying of zinc borate species was investigated to evaluate possible chemical alterations in the product during the drying. Methanol-wetted zinc borates produced either from borax decahydrate ...

In the present study, untreated and silver exchanged natural zeolite-polypropylene (PP) composites were prepared and characterized by means of different techniques (TGA, DSC, mechanical tests, density measurements, optical ...

The thermal degradation and flammability of intumescent fire-retardant polypropylene matrix composites consisting of ammonium polyphosphate (APP) as an acid source and blowing agent, pentaerythritol (PER) as a carbonisation ...
