Abstract This study examines sheets produced using twin-roll casting (TRC) and melt conditioned (MCTRC) to evaluate the effect of conditioning on segregation pattern grain refinement. To produce through MTCRC technique, high shear technology (high-speed rotor) was applied Al-5 Mg alloys, before subjecting TRC. A low slope used prepare a commercially pure aluminum ingot. The mean size obtained for processed samples with vibration at pouring temperature 780°C is 69.4 µm, decreasing 62.5 µm...

In this study, the surface of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber used as reinforcement in low-density (LDPE)/UHMWPE composites was modified by direct fluorination using elemental fluorine, (10% F2+90% He) mixture, at 25 °C. A polymer composite based on LDPE/UHMWPE fibers prepared. We studied influence treatment properties composite. The were first received, and then after fluorine (direct fluorination) their surface. Stress–strain behavior prepared samples measured....

Abstract Polymer fibers are one of the main substances used for reinforcement plastic composites. Surface modification aramid fiber was performed by direct fluorination. The crystallinity and decomposition temperature modified were increased. Scanning electron microscope shows that roughness increases in fiber. Composites prepared using unmodified fibers. It shown mechanical thermal properties increase reinforcing To reduce degradation or breakdown, composites solution casting method. POLYM....

Abstract Linear polyimides are prepared by condensation polynerization which involves the elimination of volatiles. These volatiles responsible for severe problems encountered in fabrication parts, particularly thick and large components. Some success has been attained reducing volatile level through p-staging, is generally accompanied reduced resin flow also using an intricate bleeder system a long cure cycle. A few high-temperature can be processed as thermoplastics. However, high...
