A biodegradable film made of taro starch and chitosan plasticized by castor oil was created through a casting solvent method. This study examined the influence of taro starch and chitosan composition on the thermo-mechanical and morphological properties of the film. We have successfully obtained a film with a smooth surface and compact structure of taro starch. The results showed that the higher proportion of chitosan in the polymer matrix succeeded in increasing the tensile strength and thermal stability of the film. The addition of chitosan into taro starch samples resulted in reducing the water uptake of the film. The film with a balanced ratio of taro and chitosan starch had excellent water resistance, its absorption of water is the lowest of all compositions.

The purpose of this study was synthesizing mesoporous silica SBA-15 and investigated the effect of the initial temperature of the preparation surfactant using the hydrothermal process to synthesize silica SBA-15. Pluronic (P123) as surfactant template and TEOS as material precursor acted as a building block of the mesoporous silica material. Therefore, the interaction surfactant template and precursor during the hydrothermal process guided to silica SBA-15 properties. The results suggested that the physicochemical properties of these materials did not change significantly, but different condition temperature of surfactant and hydrothermal process affected the size of the specific surface area, pore volume, and pore size distribution. The largest specific surface area was 560 m 2 g -1 , pore volume was 1.57 m 3 g -1 and ordered pore size distribution around 11.24 nm after the initial temperature of the surfactant at 15 o C and hydrothermal process at 100 o C for 48 h. This resulted properties of SBA-15 are potentially applicable in various chemical and non-chemical based industries.

A novel water-soluble and flexible aliphatic bismaleimide resin (BMIDPE) was synthesized by using maleic anhydride and polyether diamine (PEA) and toughened with diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A (DGEBA) with 4,4'diamino diphenyl methane (DDM) as curing agent. This BMIDPE toughened DGEBA were further altered with various weight percentages (0.5, 1.0 & 1.5 wt %) of multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) to obtain MWCNT/BMIDPE/DGEBA nanocomposites. The thermal studies indicated that the MWCNT/DGEBA nanocomposites displayed improved thermal stability and decreased the glass transition temperature (Tg) than that of the neat epoxy matrix. The prepared nanocomposites displayed a better dielectric constant than that of the neat epoxy system. From XRD data, it is observed that MWCNT was exfoliated into BMIDPE toughened epoxy. The homogeneous fine dispersion of MWCNTs throughout the DGEBA matrix was ascertained by SEM. The result from mechanical analysis specifies that the inclusion of PEA into the epoxy system increases the toughness. Moreover, it was believed that this new type of BMIDPE toughened DGEBA/MWCNT nanocomposites would be utilized for high-performance applications.
