“…The polymer production and processing branch is considered one of the largest industrial sectors. In today's society, with a wide spectrum of lifestyles, obtaining new advanced materials based on polyolefins, elastomers, compatibilizing and reinforcing agents in the form of nano-sized particles with chemically activated surfaces, with high-performance physical and mechanical properties and ecological processing technology into finished products with short processing time is essential for various fields of research [2][3][4]. Among these, elasto-plastic nanomaterials are currently considered materials with high industrial performance applications.…”

This paper describes the development of new types of dynamically cross-linked thermoplastic elastomers based on ethylene-propylene-terpolymer rubber and low-density polyethylene, reinforced with plasticized starch and montmorillonite with a chemically modified surface. An octylphenol-formaldehyde resin in the presence of stannous chloride dihydrate was used as a vulcanizing agent. The samples were obtained on a Brabender Plasti-Corder mixer, at appropriate temperatures and rotation speeds, using the dynamic vulcanization method and the melt intercalation technique. The mixtures obtained were modeled in the form of plates with standard dimensions using specific molds and a laboratory-scale electrical press. The obtained samples were analyzed from the point of view of the physical-mechanical properties, the melt flow index, as well as from the structural and morphological point of view. It was observed that the characteristics of the samples are influenced by both the composition and the methods of obtaining used. According to the obtained characteristics, the new elasto-plastic materials can be used in fields such as the footwear industry (for the production of: soles, heels, protective boots), in the rubber and plastics industry, the automobile industry, agriculture or construction (when making gaskets, technical items, hoses, etc.). They can be easily processed into different finished products by methods specific to plastics.

“…Natural fillers, e.g. chestnut, are used by researchers to produce polymer composite with enhanced characteristics [17][18][19][20][21][22]. Chestnut fillers are obtained directly from natural resource; it is cheap and has advantages due to their renewable nature, available in abundance [23].…”

In this study, an industrial source) E-Glass fiber) and a natural source (chestnut filler) were combined to improve the properties of polyesters. Hand-layup technique was applied in this work. Polyester (UPE) were reinforced with E-glass fibers, then reinforced with nano chestnut particles. All composites were prepared with (10% wt.) of E-glass for all prepared sheet and this ratio applied for Nano chestnut composite to preparing nano hybrid composites, Nano chestnut particles were used to reinforce E-glass/UPE composites with weight ratio (3%, 6% and 9% wt.). The evaluated mechanical performances for E-glass/NCSP polyester composite were tensile strength, impact strength and hardness. The higher ultimate tensile strength, Young’s modulus and impact strength was appeared for the E-glass/UPE composite with 3%wt nano chestnut filler only. While the composites with 6% and 9% wt. showed failure in these properties. Hardness property was high with the three percentage addition of nano powder of chestnut.
