1. A STUDY ON THE MODIFICATION, CHARACTERISATION AND APPLICATION OF COCONUT WASTES AS FILLERS IN RUBBER COMPOUNDING
ABSTRACT
In this study, coconut palm wastes were obtained, washed to remove sands and debris and then dried at 95oC for 1 hr to remove surface moisture. Filler modifications through carbonisation were done at varying temperatures of 300oC, 400oC, 500oC, 600oC and 700oC....
2. THE PHYSICO-MECHANICAL AND MORPHOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF -CELLULOSE-FILLED POLYSTYRENE (PS) AND POLYVINYL ACETATE (PVAc) BLENDS
ABSTRACT
Studies of physico-mechanical and morphological properties of pure and -cellulose reinforced blends of polystyrene (PS) and poly (vinyl acetate) (PVAc) are reported in this work. The compression moulded articles of the blends of different compositions (10:90, 20:80, 30:70, 40:...
