Evaluation of Modified Nanoparticles' Effects on Polypropylene Composites
Abstract: Numerous sectors use nanoparticles and nanocomposites in a range of applications, including medicine, textiles, cosmetics, agriculture, optics, food packaging, optoelectronics, semiconductors, aerospace, building materials, and catalysis. Polymeric nanocomposites, which combine organic polymers with inorganic nanoparticles, are a novel family of materials that perform better than their microparticle counterparts. They should therefore enhance the field of engineering applications. A polymer matrix's characteristics can be drastically changed by the addition of inorganic …

Development of 3D Printing Filaments from Industrial Waste Plastics
Abstract: The global plastic waste crisis has prompted innovative approaches to sustainable material reuse, particularly in additive manufacturing. Simultaneously, the accumulation of plastic waste presents significant environmental concerns. Recycling plastic into filament supports eco-friendly innovation and brings us closer to a circular economy where materials are reused instead of thrown away. This study investigates the development of 3D printing filaments from industrial waste plastics, including polypropylene (PP), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), …
