Structural Studies on Glass Fiber Reinforced Poly-styrene Composites
Abstract: Polymers are used in various industries and majorly in aerospace and automobile industry where in fuel efficiency is a big challenge. Polymers are lightweight hence by volume they make up 50% of a new vehicle but by weight it is less than 10%. Current economic and environmental concerns make the creation of more fuel-efficient cars a top priority in the automotive industry. Hence the study of these polymers becomes very …

Evaluation of Crystallinity in Talc/Poly-styrene Composites by using FTIR and XRD
Abstract: Over the decade, polymers have found their usage in almost all types of industries ranging from food and beverage packaging to automobile industries. Though the polymers are considered highly inert and chemically stable, their performance under mechanical loading is not at par with their metallic counterparts. Thus, polymer composites have started gaining popularity over the years, but their properties are poorly understood. In this study, the effect of talc addition …

Substantial Enrichment of Mechanical, Thermal and Electrical Properties of Thermoplastic Polyester Elastomer by Melt Blending with Nano-ZnO
Abstract: Polymers are more reinforced with nano-metal oxides, a completely flexible composite of engineering that simplifies the way of exhibiting good mechanical and chemical features. Polymer mixtures represent a very vital field in the handling of innovative ingredients, which have better features than net polymers. Polymer mixtures can deliver ingredients with prolonged useful features beyond the range that can be achieved from a single polymer equivalent. A methodical study was performed …
