Morphology, Thermo-Mechanical Properties and Biodegradibility of PCL/PLA Blends Reactively Compatibilized by Different Organic Peroxides
(MDPI, 2021-07-28)
Reactive blending is a promising approach for the sustainable development of bio-based polymer blends and composites, which currently is gaining more and more attention. In this paper, biodegradable blends based on ...
Creating a Green Chemistry Lab: Towards Sustainable Resource Management and Responsible Purchasing
(MDPI, 2020-10-27)
The main goal of this project was to improve the efficiency and sustainability of the chemistry teaching laboratories of the Faculty of Engineering Vitoria-Gasteiz (University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU)). With this ...
Composite waste recycling: Predictive simulation of the pyrolysis vapours and gases upgrading process in Aspen plus.
(Elsevier, 2022-08)
[EN] Waste generation is one of the greatest problems of present times, and the recycling of carbon fibre reinforced composites one big challenge to face. Currently, no resin valorisation is done in thermal fibre recycling ...
Residues from rigid foams and graphene for the synthesis of hybrid polyurethane flexible foams composites
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
Hybrid biobased polyurethane flexible foam composites containing a residue from surf industry (polyurethane powder) as filler and graphite or graphene residue were synthe-sized. It was observed that the addition of the ...
GTR/Thermoplastics Blends: How Do Interfacial Interactions Govern Processing and Physico-Mechanical Properties?
(MDPI, 2022-01-22)
In this work, GTR/thermoplastics blends (in ratio 50/50 and 75/25 wt.%) were prepared by melt-compounding in an internal mixer. During research, trans-polyoctenamer rubber (TOR), ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), ...
Bio-oinarritutako materialen diseinua elikagai industriako hondakinak erabiliz
(2020-01-10)
Doktorego-tesi honetan biopolimeroen balioztatzearen zein proteinazko materialetan gaur egun erabiltzen diren prozesatze metodoak eta aplikazioak azaltzen dira. Elikagaien iraungitzea luzatzeko erabiltzen diren gelatinan ...
Sustainable Sheep Wool/Soy Protein Biocomposites for Sound Absorption
(MDPI, 2022-12-01)
The wool fibers of the Latxa sheep breed were combined with a soy protein isolate (SPI)
matrix to develop sustainable biocomposites with acoustic properties, adding value to Latxa sheep
wool, which is currently considered ...
Cellulose and Graphene Based Polyurethane Nanocomposites for FDM 3D Printing: Filament Properties and Printability
(MDPI, 2021-03-09)
3D printing has exponentially grown in popularity due to the personalization of each printed part it offers, making it extremely beneficial for the very demanding biomedical industry. This technique has been extensively ...
Solvent-Based Elimination of Organic Matter from Marine-Collected Plastics
(MDPI, 2021-07-20)
The physical-chemical characterization of plastic litter from the marine environment requires the prior removal of the biofouling attached to their surface without causing any degradation in the polymer. The absence of a ...
A probabilistic model and capturing device for remote simultaneous estimation of spectral emissivity and temperature of hot emissive materials
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2021-07-12)
[EN] Estimating the temperature of hot emissive samples (e.g. liquid slag) in the context of harsh
industrial environments such as steelmaking plants is a crucial yet challenging task, which is typically
addressed by ...
