Abstract Most previously reported susceptors for microwave welding are in powder form. In this study, a thin-film susceptor was employed due to its uniform heating rate and ease of handling. Silicon carbide nanowhisker (SiCNW) were incorporated into poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) matrix create nanocomposite thin film, which served as the susceptor. The process involved three straightforward steps: fabrication PMMA/SiCNW application film target area, subsequent heating. Upon cooling, robust...
The properties of polymeric composites have often been altered with the incorporation fillers. In this study, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) was filled silicon carbide nano-particles (SiC). PMMA/SiC composite films were prepared through solution casting by using acetone as solvent. different loading SiC ranging from 0.25 wt% to 1.00 incorporated into PMMA matrix. effect and silane coupling agent on in terms mechanical, physical, morphological investigated. It found that increasing...
Despite manufacturers’ goal of molding single component products from plastics, the structures some are far too complex to be molded as a piece. Therefore, assembly subcomponents into final is important for manufacturing many plastic-based products. To date, welding most efficient joining method plastics. In this study, multiwalled carbon nanotubes were proposed susceptor microwave high-density polyethylene considering nanotube good absorber. first dispersed in ethanol an ultrasonic bath...
Recently, microwave welding has arisen as an advanced joining method due to its versatility and rapid heating capabilities. Among others, susceptors play a crucial role in welding, different classes of have distinct mechanisms. In this work, polypropylene (PP) was utilized thermoplastic substrate two types microwaves susceptors, namely multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) silicon carbide nanowhiskers (SiC NWs), were studied for welding. The susceptor first dispersed acetone form suspension....
The preparation of nanocomposites through melt mixing was challenging as the nanofillers tend to form agglomeration. silicon carbide nanowhiskers (SiCNWs) filled poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) thin film in this study prepared by means solution casting. Acetone with low toxicity used solvent dissolve PMMA pellets. A coupling agent, silane enhance properties composite films. Besides, untreated and treated SiCNWs were into matrix, respectively filler loading varied from 0.2 0.8 wt%....
Currently, welding is the most efficient way for joining of plastic. Due to its rapid heating, efficiency in term time and energy, ability be applied on components any shape, microwave stands out from other methods. Additionally, SiCNWs was proposed as susceptor thermoplastic this work due high dielectric loss biocompatibility. To produce welded joint, first mixed with acetone obtain a suspension. After that, drop casted onto targeted area PP, allowed dry then irradiated. In work, heating...
Microwave welding is becoming more popular than conventional joining methods due to its advantages such as rapid and localised heating well applicable components with complicated geometry. Previously reported susceptor, carbonaceous materials conductive polymers, are toxic the process involving these susceptors time-consuming. Because of exceptional microwave absorption biocompatibility, silicon carbide nanowhiskers (SiCNWs) was employed susceptor for welding. in this study comprises only...
Silicon carbide (SiC) is well known for their outstanding microwave absorbing properties. SiC nanomaterials (SiCNMs) are expected to have better absorption performance due high specific surface area. To date, no study was reported compare the dielectric properties and of different type SiCNMs. Therefore, objective this paper types In paper, nanoparticles (SiCNPs) nanowhiskers (SiCNWs) were characterised using SEM XRD. addition, measured network analyser transmission line theory. It found...
Up to present, no study has reported on the use of silicon carbide nanomaterials (SiCNMs) as susceptor for microwave welding thermoplastics. Therefore, in this study, nanowhiskers (SiCNWs) was attempted polypropylene (PP). It observed that SiCNWs are capable absorbing and converting them into heat, leading a sharp increase temperature until it reaches melting point PP substrates. The welded joint is formed after molten at interface between substrates cooled under pressure. effect heating...
