Enzymatic degradation, electronic, and thermal properties of graphite and graphene oxide-filled biodegradable polylactide/poly (å-caprolactone) blend composites

Author: Botlhoko, Orebotse J ; Makwakwa, Dimakatso M ; Ray, SS ; Ramontja, J Date: Dec 2018 Commodity polymers are the most widely used materials for electronic packaging applications. However, they are nondegradable and causing serious environmental damage. Addressing this challenge, the relative effects of graphite (G) and graphene ... Read more
Influence of nucleation and growth mechanisms on the heat deflection temperature of a reactively processed polypropylene nanocomposite

Author: Bandyopadhyay, Jayita ; Mekoa, Raphaahle C ; Makwakwa, Dimakatso M ; Skosana, Sifiso ; Ray, Suprakas S Date: Feb 2021 The development of a reactively processed polypropylene nanocomposite (PPNC) with consequential improvements in the heat deflection temperature (HDT), Vicat softening temperature (VST), and crystallization peak temperature (Tc) is reported ...
