Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsINFLUENCE OF ELECTRON BEAM TREATMENT ON THE CRYSTALLIZATION AND THERMAL STABILITY OF LDPE/EPDM BLENDSBhuwanesh Kumar Sharma, Subhendu Ray Chowdhury, P. A. Mahanwar, K. S.S. SarmaThe effect of blend composition and Electron Beam (EB) irradiation on the crystallization and thermal behavior of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE)/Ethylene-Propylene-Diene elastomer (EPDM) blends had been studied. Melting temperatures were found to remain unchanged upon variation of blend composition as well as irradiation dose. But the degree of crystallinity and Tc (crystallization temperature) were decreased with increase in EPDM content … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 17 Nov 2014 · 7,043 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiodegradation of Low-Density Polyethylene Film by UV Irradiated and Non-Irradiated Pseudomonas Aeruginosa D5Olusola Adeoye Oluwole, Temitayo Omotunde Olowomofe, Ikeoluwa Gloria OlaniyanLow-density polyethylene (LDPE) constitutes 60% of total plastic production, and non-degradable polyethylene carry bags are the most common type of solid waste found. Their recalcitrance in the environment is thus a major concern for environmentalists. This study investigated the potential of Ultraviolet (UV) induced mutation in enhancing biodegradation of LDPE films by two diesel degrading bacteria, Alcaligenes faecalis D4 and … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 8 Oct 2025 · 3,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Diversity of Fungi in Landfill and their Potential to Degrade PlasticErman Munir, Yitro Pasaribu, Syahira Mubtasima, Ahmad Faisal NasutionPlastic has been known as a recalcitrant material and is very difficult to degrade in nature, resulting in its accumulation and threatening the environment if it is not managed properly. Studies on the degradation of plastics have been obtaining much attention recently. This study aimed to determine the diversity of fungi isolated from plastic wastes in landfills and to identify … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 1 Mar 2024 · 6,693 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFabrication and Mechanical Properties of Glass Fiber/Talc/CaCO3 Filled Recycled PP CompositesUğur Soy, Fehim Findik, Salih Hakan Yetgin et al.Until now, recycling studies brought to the agenda after the rapid increasing of plastic materials in every area and causing those plastics to environmental pollution after discarding them following the utilization. The purpose of recycling plastic waste is to minimize environmental pollution and to create of new resources. To perform the present study, Recycled Polypropylene Granules (RPP) belonging to Polypropylene … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 9 · 15 Aug 2017 · 9,364 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInsulating Properties of Low Density Polyethylene/Alumina NanocompositesSi-Jiao Wang, Jun-Wei Zha, Yun-Hui Wu et al.High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) cable has become an important factor in the development of HVDC transmission. However, there are still difficulties such as space charge distribution in the development of HVDC cables. In this study, Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) nanocomposites filled with nano alumina (nano-Al2O3) particles with or without modification were prepared by employing melting blend method. The results show … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 4 Jul 2015 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Polyethylene in Hot Asphalt MixturesMohammad T. Awwad, Lina ShbeebThe increase in road traffic during the last two decades in combination with an insufficient degree of maintenance due to shortage in funds has caused an accelerated and continuous deterioration of the road network in Jordan. To alleviate this process, several types of measures may be effective, e.g., securing funds for maintenance, improved roadway design, use of better quality of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 14,664 accessesView PDFCite
