In the present work, Different high build epoxy coating formulations cured by polyamine hardener were modified incorporation various concentrations (50, 75 and 100%) of processed micro-sized ilmenite ore (FeTiO3) as pigment to replace all inorganic solids content form a highly cross linked adduct in three dimensional network. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was implemented assure phase identification crystalline particles. Dielectric light scattering measurements accomplished measure...
Air blowing of asphalt generally decreases the penetration value binder so that becomes more brittle and susceptible to crack during thermal cycling. The aim this study is improve elasticity blown upon blending with 3%, 5%, 7% by weight thermoplastic waste EVA copolymer (WEVA). Physico-chemical characteristics blended samples like (FTIR TGA) were discussed. In addition, physical properties including test, softening point, ductility elastic recovery studied. chemical constituents oils,...
In this study, Asphalt PUF (asphalt polyurethane foam) was simply prepared from the point of view industry by in-situ polymerization a polyoxyalkylene polyol (caster oil) and an organic isocyanate 4,4′diphenyl methane diisocyanate (MDI) into asphalt emulsion media at different NCO/OH index starting (0.8 to 1.6). The chemical reaction is confirmed FTIR. Surface morphology scanned with SEM. Some selected physical tests were performed for insulating purposes; such as sound absorption, vibration...
Pour point depressants (PPDs) are commonly used as chemical wax inhibitors and rheological property improvers in the oil gas industry order to improve flow ability of crude oil. In this study, polymeric additives based on stearyl acrylate (StA)-acrylic acid (AA)-allyl oleate (AO) were prepared via free radical polymerization method. The obtained polymers characterized by FTIR, 1H-NMR,GPC, TGA, DTA. results indicated successful formation copolymers. investigated PPDs rheology modifiers for...
Polymer modified asphalt is increasingly used in road surfacing.Unmodified sensitive to changes temperature, it becomes brittle and cracks cold weather soften high causing rutting surface deformation.This research aims prepare hot mix (HMA) for paving using polymer prepared from stearyl acrylate methyl methacrylate styrene molar ratios: 0.5:0.5:0.2 0.5:0.5:0.5, respectively.The solid materials the include normal highly porous aggregates.4,6,8% of two polymers by weight were special...
In this study, asphalt binder was loaded with 5, 10, 15 and 20 wt.% of grinded mixed waste plastics.The polymeric comprised mainly from a mixture PE/EPDM (60/40 wt.%).To study the effect these wastes on performance; physical properties were studied including penetration, viscosity, softening point.The mechanical characteristics modified using Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer (DMA).Two types sweep tests conducted virgin to effects temperature frequency performance.Elastic recovery also...
