Production process: polypropylene is made by chain-growth polymerization, while polystyrene is manufactured by free radical vinyl polymerization. Uses: single-use drinking cups, appliances, and computer housing parts are made of polystyrene, whereas polypropylene is utilized to make containers, packaging, and …
1. Introduction. Waste plastics are a serious threat to the natural environment. If they are processed improperly they will end up in soils, surface waters, and the atmosphere [1].In 2020, a total of 55 million tons of waste plastics were produced in Europe, of which polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), accounted for over 50 % [2].The …
This research aims to investigate the fresh and mechanical properties of concrete with diatomaceous earth (DE) and polypropylene fiber (PPF). The cement was partially replaced by DE in the concentration ranging from 5 to 20% by weight; whereas, PPF was incorporated in concrete mix as in range of 0.05–0.20% by cement weight. …
Polypropylene fiber Polypropylene fiber was used in the construction sec-tors as a secondary reinforcement that controls cracks, increases strength and resistance to impact/abrasion, and reasonably improves the quality of construction. Polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer used in an ample variety of applications. Polypropylene fiber/fila-
The replacement of fine aggregate with polypropylene pellets (PP) is the only local study that maximized pellet materials in the Philippines using nominal size CHB 4" x 8" x 16" and following the ...
This study aims to investigate the potential use of waste polypropylene fibers and palm oil fuel ash (POFA) in the production of PAFRC to enhance the strength and deformation properties.
Kaolin has the lowest cost of oil production compared to Hematite and white sand, which is 0.28 $/kg of oil, and it can be concluded that Kaolin is an economical catalyst that improves the quality ...
In the current study, the thermogravimetric behavior of Nannochloropsis sp.(NS), polypropylene (PP) and mixed samples (NS: PP = 1:1) with and without catalyst were investigated by TGA analysis.To promote the efficient production of aromatic hydrocarbons, co-pyrolysis of NS and PP over the HZSM-5 zeolite catalyst were carried …
