Polythene and Plastics-degrading microbes from the mangrove soil
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2003)
A importância da reciclagem dos plásticos e a conscientização dos alunos do ensino médio
(Universidade Tecnológica Federal do ParanáMedianeira, 2014-11-29)
The plastic due to its versatility, variety of applications, price and durability has greatly increased its use worldwide and can cause much damage to the environment because it takes about hundreds of years to undo, ...
Size of the Plastic Zone Produced by Nanoscratching
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2018-03)
Nanoscratching of ductile materials creates plastic zones surrounding the scratch groove. We approximate the geometry of these zones by a semicylinder with its axis oriented along the scratch direction. The radius and the ...
Threats Underestimated in Freshwater Plastic Pollution: Mini-Review
(Springer, 2019-07)
Plastic pollution is one of the most acute environmental topics of our time. While there is a great scientific effort to tackle this problem, it has not always been well-coordinated or properly targeted. In this short ...
Starch films for agronomic applications: comparative study of urea and glycerol as plasticizers
(Infogain Publication, 2018)
This work aims to study the effects of urea, glycerol and their mixture as plasticizers for cassava starch films, regarding their impact on the material structure, water susceptibility, barrier and mechanical properties. ...
Hygrotermal effects evaluation using the losipescu shear test for glare laminates
(Abcm Brazilian Soc Mechanical Sciences & Engineering, 2008-07-01)
Fiber-metal laminates (FML) composed of alternating layers of unidirectional fibers-reinforced plastic (FRP) laminae and aluminum-alloy sheets offer some superior mechanical properties, compared with either conventional ...
Processing and characterization of starch-based materials from pehuen seeds (araucaria araucana (mol) k. Koch)
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012)
Starch isolated from pehuen seed (Araucaria araucana (Mol) K. Koch) was employed for producing thermoplastic starch (TPS). Pehuen starch was characterized, stating that the granules are rounded and small (12-21 mu m), with ...
