The effects of carbon black on the properties rubber composites were studied in order to explore their value producing low rolling resistance truck tires. Carbon with different grades, N330 (coarser grade 26–30 nm) and N220 (finer 20–25 nm), was used as a reinforcing agent natural rubber. ratios at 40, 45, 50 55 parts per hundred (phr) 30, 35, 40 phr investigated. Rubber had greater rubber/carbon interaction than those N330. Mooney viscosity composite increased when ratio increased. After...
PET knitted fabric was melted and cooled by hot pressing at 250 °C to obtain a compacted sheet. Only white (WF_PET) used study the recycling process compression grinding powder then melt spinning different take-up speeds compared bottle grade (BO_PET). had good fiber formability better suited for of recycled (r-PET) fibers than grade. Thermal mechanical properties r-PET improved in terms crystallinity tensile strength with increasing speed (500 1500 m/min). Fading color changes from original...
Since the late 2010-s and early 2020s, people around world have not only encountered pandemic crisis, but also in some places, they had to deal with serious levels of air pollution. Personal protective equipment is essential protect from microorganisms or fine particulate matter. Consequently, this study aimed develop a silk face covering that could meet international requirements addition having an antibacterial property. The developed consisted three layers; outer layer was water-repellent...
This paper is aimed at investigating the usage of biosynthesized poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (P(3-HB)) for a coating on pineapple leaf fiber (PLFP). For this purpose, was produced by Rhodococcus pyridinivorans BSRT1-1, highly potential P(3-HB) producing bacterium, with weight-average molecular weight (Mw) 6.07 × 10 −5 g/mol. 7.5% (w/v) then coated PLFP through dip-coating technique chloroform used as solvent. The respective showed that could be well all over surface confirmed scanning electron...
This research aims to use oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) fibers reinforce epoxy resin for bumper beam in cars replace epoxy/glass fiber composite. EFB were extracted by two methods; chemical method treating with 10-30% sodium hydroxide (% weight of fiber) and mechanical steam explosion process at 12-20 kgf/cm 2 5 mins. Then, the obtained bleached hydrogen peroxide. The results show that can eliminate lignin better than other provided stronger fibers. Increasing alkaline concentration...
Abstract Thailand is one of well-known countries for the silk fabric production. However, there are just few studies focusing on tactile properties fabrics. This study collected forty-one machined-woven fabrics manufactured in Thailand, Japan, China, Korea, Italy, France, India and USA. The were classified into 4 groups categorized by weight according to “silk fabric” industrial product standard Thai Industrial Standards Institute (TISI) 176-2540 (≤ 90 g/m 2 , 91-120 121-160 >160 )....

Polyester/cotton fabrics with different proportions of Tetron Cotton, TC (35% Cotton/65% PET), and Chief Value CVC (60% Cotton/40% were investigated by removing the cotton component under various phosphoric acidic conditions including use cellulase enzymes. The remaining polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was spun using melt spinning method. Only 85% H3PO4-Enz_TC could be into consistent filament fibers. effects Acid-Enz (obtained from a powder preparation H3PO4-Enz_TC) at weight amounts (1,...
Alkaline pretreated hemp fibers were modified by steam explosion and/or silanization before being compounded with polylactic acid (PLA). The fungal biodegradation of the PLA/hemp composite was investigated using Aspergillus niger TISTR 3153 in an aqueous medium for 28 days, following ISO 846: 1997 standard method. influence different physicochemical modifications on evaluated terms molecular weight, chemical structure, mechanical properties, thermal and hygroscopic properties. results showed...
Importance of the work: Recent shortages wood and non-wood fibers for papermaking have encouraged research on new cellulosic fiber sources from agricultural wastes.Objectives: To utilize pineapple leaf, banana pseudostem cattail stem as wastes in Thailand papermaking.Materials & Methods: A completely randomized design was applied each raw material.Chemical compositions morphologies were analyzed to determine best treatments all materials.Then, optimum conditions pulping bleaching assessed...
Cassava rhizomes are left in fields after harvesting. This agricultural waste is rich lignocellulosic material which a substrate for white rot fungi. Disposal of synthetic dyes poses problem to the environment and it needs be addressed. The ability Lentinus polychrous Lév., fungus, grown on cassava rhizome chips, decolorise three kinds dye was studied. effects initial moisture content used fungal cultivation, temperature during decolorisation, pH solution extent decolorisation were...
In this paper, the series of co-fibrous composite materials combining natural fiber derived from drought-tolerant plants (pineapple, hemp, sisal, and agave) recycled-polyethylene terephthalate (r-PET) were successfully prepared using a mixing-hot-pressing method. The area density thickness controlled porosity was calculated. with higher showed better performance in sound absorption thermal insulation. Furthermore, all have noise reduction coefficient (NRC) than high-efficiency absorber...
