In the current study the role of both nano-sized calcium carbonate and strain rate on the tensile properties of HDPE was studied. For this purpose

standard tensile samples of HDPE and HDPE/10 vol.% CaCO3 were performed using extrusion...

In this study, we have used nano-CaCO3 particles as modified filler to prepare Standard Malaysian Rubber )SMR(/ nano-CaCO3 composites. By adding different mass fraction of nano-CaCO3 to tire compounds, the mechanical properties of product...

to it is nano size calcium carbonate (CaCO3). To avoid agglomeration of nano size calcium carbonate

addition of fatty acids such as stearic acid is very common.

Design/methodology/approach: In the current study, nanocomposites with 10vol% nano size...

(SEM). The results showed that we of

PE/CaCO3 nanocomposites was lower than that of neat PE, while βwp increased with increasing CaCO3

content up to 2.5wt%, and then decreased for the nanocomposites containing 5wt% CaCO3. The...

The EWF approach was successfully used to characterize the fracture behavior of the medium density Polyethylene (MDPE) as well as that of the composite samples when 1, 2.5 and 5wt.% CaCO3 nanoparticles are added to MDPE. It was shown the CaCO3...

The effects of 40 and 50 wt% of calcium carbonate on

the mechanical properties of polypropylene were

investigated by uniaxial tensile deformation at room

temperature and at loading rates of 5, 50, and ...

CaCO3 nanoparticles in polymer matrix cause to improve in polymer performance, including thermal stability, and mechanical properties. The main goal of this paper is to investigate the effect of different weight percentage of nanoparticles...

In the present work, high temperature tensile properties of medium density polyethylene (MDPE) and its nanocomposites are investigated. For this purpose MDPE reinforced with different weight percentages of nano-sized calcium ...
