Polymer dielectrics with high thermal conductivity and low dielectric loss are highly attractive for applications in electric and electronic industry. In this paper, surface modified aluminum nitride ...

Polypropylene has great potential as a thermoplastic insulation material for high voltage direct current (HVDC) cable. However, its mechanical properties restrict its application, particularly at low ...

Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is a native enzyme that facilitates the hydration of carbon dioxide into bicarbonate ions. This study reports the fabrication of thin films of active CA enzyme onto a porous ...

Abstract Despite its versatility, the use of polypropylene (PP) has been limited to subzero temperature applications owing to its inherent brittleness at low temperatures. Herein, we introduce a PP ...

Polypropylene matrix composites reinforced with treated coconut fibers were produced. Fibers chemically treated (alkalization-CCUV samples) or mechanically treated (ultrasonic shockwave-CMUV samples) ...

Although a large number of papers have been published regarding the use of nucleating agents in polypropylene, just a few [3 - 5] describe in detail the influence of different nucleating agent ...
