into the mold forcing the laminated parison to blow up against the mold and be held in this fashion until sufficient cooling has taken place (i.e. approximately 16 seconds for the aforementioned sample), at which point the gas is exhausted. The part is then removed from the mold and ...
Throughout the present description and claims, all the standard melt index values are measured according to ASTM D 1238, using a piston load of 2.16 kg and at a temperature of 190 degrees Celsius. The High Load Melt Index (or HLMI) values are also measured according to ASTM D 1238, but...
The procedure is carried out under anhydrous, anaerobic, conditions. The reactants are heated to a temperature of from about 10° to 150° C. and are agitated for about 0.1 to 24 hours. After polymerization is complete, the product is removed from the heat and terminated in one or more ...
during a time period that is operable to achieve the dispersion or blending of the lignocellulosic fibres throughout the thermoplastic creating a lignocellulosic composite; whereafter the inorganic fibres are dispersed in the lignocellulosic composite either (i) by melt mixing at a temperature that is ...
plates to ensure that the dimension of a sample is accurately measured and stays constant throughout the test. The spacer is machined out of Teflon PTFE and is designed to have minimal influence on the conductivity measurement while maintaining a consistent gap between the upper and lower plates....
The measurements were carried out in tensile mode at 1 Hz frequency with deformation amplitude of 40 µm. The storage modulus (E ), loss modulus (E"), and loss tangent (tan δ = E /E") were determined for at least three specimens of each sample formulation. The rheological ...
Cylindrical gel samples (35 × 10 mm) were placed on the platform and a texture profile analysis (TPA) was carried out with a TA-HDi texture analyzer (Stable Micro Systems Ltd., Godalming, UK) using a P50 aluminum probe. The samples were compressed twice at a speed of 1 mm/s with a...
