Pumice stone (P), which is as a cheap material, can be good candidate for filling material polymers because of its high thermal resistance. Its effect on properties polypropylene (PP) has not been studied in detail up to now. The mechanical, viscoelastic, thermal, morphological, crystallographic, and thermomechanical behaviors PP filled with P powder were studied. composites produced by adding different weight fractions (0–40 wt%) into using high-speed thermo kinetic mixer compression...

Abstract Natural flammability properties of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) seriously limit the use ABS polymers in industries. Improving performance by using halogenated additives has been a very common method past. However, with increasing environmental awareness, halogen‐containing severely limited over time. Therefore, we aimed to halogen‐free flame‐retardant our study improve ABS. ABS‐based composites containing 20, 25, 30 % aluminum diethyl‐phosphinate (AlPi) and ammonium...
