Pruning represents the main tree care activity in cities, where it is carried out to reduce wind-break risk, ensure road visibility, infrastructure interactions and damages, last but not least, for aesthetic reasons. However, pruning also proven increase susceptibility disease can potentially affect their capacity provide ecosystem services (ES). This study aims assess effect of three different life-long scenarios on urban trees PM10 capture CO2 stock performance. The total carbon balance...
The mechanical properties of composites based on different natural fibers and glass using unsaturated polyester modified acrylic as matrix are evaluated. In spite the several works done in fiber composites, there very few results matrix. Fabrication is by means vacuum infusion. Flexural, tension, impact test conducted composites. Ignition, thermal degradation, water absorption determined. Jute composite with resin showed best flexural tensile strengths lowest energy, because strong...
Green composites, with more than 78 wt.% of products obtained from linen linum usitatissimum, were developed in this research work. Epoxidized linseed oil (ELO) was used as bio-based resin, a mix nadic methyl anhydride (MNA) and maleinized (MLO) cross-linkers finally, flax fabrics to obtain composite laminates by resin transfer molding (RTM). The fibers modified using amino-silane, glycidyl-silane maleic treatment order increase the compatibility between lignocellulosic polymeric matrix....
Abstract In this article, a successful employment of carbon nanofibers (CNFs) as filler in the unsaturated polyester (UP) matrix glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) is reported. Because high aspect ratio nanofibers, very small amount these particles were sufficient to significantly modify electrical properties obtained composites: for reason, nanocomposite matrices produced using no more than 1 wt% nanoparticles. The goal work was investigate possibility correlate presence mechanical...
ABSTRACT In this work, sub‐micrometric titanium dioxide (TiO 2 powder rutile) was used as filler in the EPDM rubber matrix to produce cool roof compounds. Rheological tests show that TiO reduces scorch time and increases maximum torque, playing a reinforcement role. UV aging depict imparts stability compounds, preventing discoloration maintaining structural integrity. Among all, EPDM‐300TiO formulation shows improved tensile strength adhesion steel substrates; compound demonstrates efficacy,...
Abstract In this article, we report an interesting employment of multi‐walled carbon nanotubes as a filler in the epoxy matrix glass fiber reinforced composite (FRP). The intrinsic electrical conductivity made development nanocomposite with enhanced properties possible. manufactured was subsequently employed production FRP. Due to high aspect ratio nanotubes, very small amounts these particles were sufficient modify obtained composites. Basically, three‐phases material developed, which two...
Abstract The influence of multiple extrusion cycles on the behavior natural fibers‐reinforced polypropylene was studied. Composites were fabricated with 20 wt % flax fibers. Final fibers dimensions (length and diameter) measured by means optical microscopy. Mechanical properties matrix composites after each cycle. It observed that elastic modulus increased incorporation. higher first process cycle than virgin material, mainly because chain scission. In next cycles, kept constant. On other...
Posidonia Oceanica waste was used as reinforcement in a polyethylene matrix and the obtained composites were characterised by tensile test morphological analysis. The fi brous material derived from P. wastes morphological, thermal chemical analysis, subsequent treatment with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) at different weight content (2, 5 10 wt%) considered an optimised method for surface modifi cation of pristine bres (PO). TGA analysis investigation treated selected wt% NaOH best treatment....
The fiber–matrix interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of biobased epoxy composites reinforced with basalt fiber was investigated by the fragmentation method. Basalt fibers were modified four different silanes, (3-aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane, [3-(2-aminoethylamino)propyl]-trimethoxysilane, trimethoxy[2-(7-oxabicyclo[4.1.0]hept-3-yl)ethyl]silane and (3-glycidyloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane to improve adhesion between resin. analysis tensile results performed in terms statistical parameters....
In this research, the revalorization of Posidonia oceanica leaf sea waste was studied and acid hydrolysis processing times were modulated in order to optimize extraction cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). The obtained ... | Find, read cite all research you need on Tech Science Press
Abstract The increasing number of space objects (SO), debris, and constellation satellites in Low Earth Orbit poses a significant threat to the sustainability safety operations, which must be carefully efficiently addressed avoid mutual collisions. situational awareness is currently by an ensemble radar radio‐telescopes that detect track SO. However, large part debris composed very small tiny metallic objects, difficult detect. authors demonstrate benefits using deep learning (DL)...
The recycling of plastic waste is undergoing fast growth due to environmental, health and economic issues, several blends post-consumer post-industrial polymeric materials have been characterized in recent years. However, most these researches focused on containers packaging, neglecting hard waste. This study provides the first experimental characterization different virgin polypropylene terms melt index, differential scan calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), mechanical...
Carbon fiber composite laminates have good electrical properties due to the performance of fibers, but anisotropy induces a quite lower conductivity through thickness. In fact, in this direction bundles are separated by insulating epoxy matrix. work, CNTs (carbon nanotubes) with different geometries and functionalization been added an resin improve performance. The nanofilled matrix has used produce carbon (CF) composites for aerospace applications. Multiscale modeling was predict some...
