“…It shows a trend that fracture elongation goes through a maximum and then falls down. Elongation increases at first since the formation of a low degree of crosslinking network could increase the elongation ability of PCL films, which in turn delayed the breakage of the film on the application of straining stress [18,27]; and then fracture elongation decreases since crosslinking networks act as strong entanglements, they do not allow polymer chains to relax upon being stretched thus leading to a considerable decrease in elongation at break [30].…”

A facile and ecologically friendly method to prepare shape-memory Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) films via Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation is described in this work. Benzophenone (BP), as a photoinitiator, was melt-blended with PCL particles directly and then melt-pressed into films. Afterward, a series of shape-memory films were obtained by UV (at around λ=365 nm) irradiation crosslinking. A sequence study and comparison on the properties changes caused by the effect of irradiation temperature was carried out and it turns out that the gel fraction, shape-memory properties and tensile properties of the PCL films, which were photo-crosslinked at 55°C, were significantly higher than that at 25°C. The effect of photoinitiator contents and irradiation time on gel fraction, shape memory properties and tensile properties was also studied. It is considered that UV irradiation is an efficient method to prepare PCL shape-memory films.

“…The synthesis of transitional metal oxide nanostructures with controlled morphology and texture has attracted a great deal of interest in the field of nanotechnology. [19][20][21] In particular, copper oxide (CuO), an important p-type transition metal oxide semiconductor with a narrow band gap (E g = 1.2 eV) and an unconventional band structure has received much attention due to its various applications in different fields of solar energy cells, 22,23 electronics, 24,25 gas sensing, 26,27 bio-sensing, [28][29][30] heterogeneous organic catalysis, [31][32][33] lithium-ion electrode materials, 34,35 super conductors 36 and so on. Therefore, the synthesis of nanostructured CuO has attracted considerable attention in recent years.…”

“…This might be due to the electron beam irradiation attack the macromolecular chains of the PP matrix to release the free radicals and then combine to form the crosslinking networks in the PP matrix. This formation of crosslinking network could provide reinforcement effect to the PP matrix in resisting the applied straining stress . However, the same increment of irradiation dose only maintained the tensile strength for all PP‐DVC compounds.…”

This study aims to investigate the effect electron beam (EB) irradiation on the polypropylene/devulcanized sulfur cured rubber (PP‐DVC) compound. The PP‐DVC compounds were compounded using twin‐screw extruder and then compression molded into required shapes before irradiation begins. The gel content of all irradiated PP‐DVC compounds gradually increased with higher irradiation dose indicated that the presence of DVC plays an important role in crosslinking enhancement. The mechanical properties of PP‐DVC compounds were observed marginally higher at low irradiation dosages (≤50 kGy). However, higher irradiation dosages up to 200 kGy cause adverse effect to the PP‐DVC compounds. In addition, the application of low irradiation dosage could enhance the dispersion of DVC particles at 20 phr composition in PP matrix. This also found that the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation where the DVC particles dispersed better in PP matrix compared to that of nonirradiated samples. Further increment in irradiation dosages up to 200 kGy reduced the crystallinity caused by chain scissoring process could rupture the crystalline structure in PP matrix. It was also found that the wavenumber of the CH and CH2 groups for irradiated samples reduced at high irradiation dosages due to the formation of carbonyl group. POLYM. ENG.
