Cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) were spun into filaments directly from suspension without the aid of solvents. The influence starting material properties and drying temperature on produced three different CNF suspensions was studied. Refiner-produced ground using a microgrinder at grinding times 50 100 minutes. Filament spinning performed syringe pump-heat gun setting temperatures 210 °C, 320 °C 430 °C. structure materials first evaluated combination optical atomic force microscopy (AFM)...
Abstract The effect of three different types cellulose nanofillers on the morphology, mechanical, and thermal properties flexible polyurethane foam was studied. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), nanofibrils (CNF), filaments (CelFil) were used as fillers at 0.1–0.8 wt% loading levels. comparison results showed that smaller levels resulted in foams with better performance almost all cases. In next step, containing CNC, CNF, or CelFil 0.025%–0.1% compared those made inorganic including nanosilica...
Biocomposites can be both environmentally and economically beneficial: during their life cycle they generally use generate less petroleum-based carbon, when produced from the byproduct of another industry or recycled back to manufacturing process, will bring additional economic benefits through contributing a circular economy. Here we investigate compare environmental performance biocomposite composed soybean oil-based resin (epoxidized sucrose soyate) flax-based reinforcement using...
Abstract A study was carried out to compare the epoxidation of unsaturated vegetable oils using dioxirane intermediates generated in situ Oxone that by peracid/hydrogen peroxide method. Epoxidized are typically synthesized hydrogen peroxide, as well acetic or formic acid. This synthesis requires heating and catalysts generates acidic waste. Recently, advances have been made process (potassium peroxymonosulfate) ketones generate dioxiranes epoxidize alkenes. The method allows for room...
Nano-size maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) particles were prepared in one step using ultrasound radiation. The obtained nanoparticles characterized by SEM, TEM , XRD, FTIR, and VSM. results revealed that the synthesized spherical, mono-dispersed uniform. Furthermore, crystalline structure of endorsed X-ray diffraction study. FTIR spectra have provided information on surface nanoparticles. analysis showed average particle size γ -Fe2O3 are about 15 nm. formed exhibited unique magnetic behavior with...
