Optical, Thermal Properties of Cadmium Chloride Reinforced PVA:PVP Blend Films
Abstract: In this study, pure polymer blend film (PVA:PVP) and salt (CdCl2.H2O) reinforced polymer blend films were prepared at different weight ratios (10, 20, 30) wt% using the casting method. The optical and thermal properties of all polymer blend films were studied.The transmittance and absorbance spectra were recorded within the wavelength range (190-1100) nm. The effect of salt weight ratio on the energy gap of salt (CdCl2.H2O) reinforced polymer blend films …

A Review on Biodegradability of Different Synthetic Vinyl Polymer Composite Blends
Abstract: The last few decades witnessed rapid rise in usage of polymers because of their growing demands in different industries. Mostly, non-biodegradable polymers form the larger proportion and there persistent usage leads to accumulation of hazardous chemicals in the environment. Therefore, to meet the demands, biodegradable polymers, polymers need to induced, designed and further modified to reduce generation of harmful byproducts. As synthetic polymers are durable than the natural polymers emerging …

Advancing Conductive Ink Formulations for DIW with Graphene and Hybrid Nanostructures
Abstract: The development of solvent-based conductive inks for direct ink writing (DIW) has gained significant attention as a pathway toward flexible, wearable, and scalable electronic devices. This review critically examines conductive fillers, binders, solvent systems, and hybrid ink strategies reported in recent literature. Graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) remain the most studied fillers due to their high intrinsic conductivity and unique dimensionality, but challenges such as restacking, bundling, and high viscosity …
