Jensen H., Bremholm M., Nielsen R.P., Joensen K.D., Chen Y-S, Almer J., Søgaard E.G., Iversen B.B., Iversen S.B., Iversen B.B., Iversen S.B., SCF-Technologies, DK

In this study the world’s first real time in-situ simultaneous small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) and wide angle x-ray scattering (WAXS) characterization of supercritical nanoparticle formation was performed. In previous supercritical studies the reaction is [...]

Strain-induced Crystallization and Mechanical Properties of Carbon Nanotubes Reinforced Natural Rubber

Jeon H.-J., Kang M.K., Song H.H., Kwag G., Choi H., Hannam University, South Korea, KR

Natural rubber is an elastomeric material and its ability to crystallize at large deformations results in an extraordinary toughness. However, natural rubber needs the reinforcing materials to improve the mechanical strength, thermal stability and abrasion [...]
