Pro-Degradant Effect of Talc Nanoparticles on Polypropylene Films
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2019-05)
Pro-degradant effect of talc nanoparticles on degradation process of polypropylene (PP) films was studied. For this purpose, two talc minerals having different intrinsic characteristics and iron content were used. Films ...
Evaluation of the rate of abiotic and biotic degradation of oxodegradable polyethylene
(Elsevier, 2016-08)
The recent introduction of oxo-degradable additive in the Argentinean market has motivated the study of the effect of abiotic (temperature and ultraviolet (UV) radiation) and biotic (aerobic in compost) degradation on the ...
Thermal degradation of a phenolic resin, vegetable fibers, and derived composites
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2008-03)
The thermal degradation behavior of resol, several vegetable fibers (two types of cotton fibers, sisal and sugar cane bagasse) and derived polymer composites have been investigated using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). ...
Thermal degradation of poly (ε-caprolactone) nanocomposites with soy lecithin-modified bentonite fillers
(Elsevier Science, 2020-07)
Thermal degradation of green nanocomposite films prepared from poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and soy lecithin (SL)-modified bentonite (Bent) obtained by melt blending were studied through thermal degradation kinetics and ...
Thermal degradation of mixtures of polycaprolactone with cellulose derivatives
(Elsevier, 2003-12)
Thermal degradation processes for a series of mixtures based on polycaprolactone (PCL), with microcrystalline cellulose (MC) and sisal fiber (SF) powder, were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), in order to ...
Estimation of mechanical property degradation of poly(lactic acid) and flax fibre reinforced poly(lactic acid) bio-composites during thermal processing
(Elsevier, 2018-02)
Thermal degradation and chemical degradation are among the key issues affecting mechanical properties and ultimately utilization of natural fibre reinforced polymer (NFRP) bio-composites. In our previous work, mathematical ...
Degradation and mineralization of the emerging pharmaceutical pollutant sildenafil by ozone and UV radiation using response surface methodology
(Springer Heidelberg, 2020-11)
Pharmaceuticals and their degradation products which are present in wastewater and superficial waters are becoming an ecological issue. This research investigated the degradation and mineralization of synthetic solutions ...
Land management and soil degradation evidence during the Late Holocene in Northwest Argentina (La Costa 2 - Tafí valley)
(Elsevier Science, 2019-11)
The Tafi valley (Northwest Argentina) was densely occupied by agropastoral societies during the Late Holocene. These peoples made profound changes in the landscape during the development of productive economies. Previous ...
Land degradation assessment in the Argentinean Puna: Comparing expert knowledge with satellite-derived information
(Elsevier, 2019-01)
The Puna region, located in NW Argentina, is a dry highland with many endemic species and significant traditional cultural heritage. The Puna was a pilot region for the Land Degradation Assessment in Drylands project ...
Biodegradation of aflatoxin B1 with cell-free extracts of Trametes versicolor and Bacillus subtilis
(Elsevier, 2020-12)
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is one of the most common contaminants of poultry feed and has been linked to adverse effects on animal health and productivity. In this study, the degradation of AFB1 was studied with cell-free extracts ...
