Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Light-Weight Eco-composites by Miao Guo

March 4, 2017 by admin

By Miao Guo

Miao Guo's PhD thesis presents medical insights into the environmental concerns with regards to biocomposites in keeping with starch-polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) blends. the writer contributes considerably to the methodological matters underlying the existence Cycle overview (LCA) modelling method. in addition to offering whole LCA inventories utilizing basic information from various resources, Guo develops a brand new modelling technique incorporating the process-oriented biogeochemistry version Denitrification-Decomposition (DNDC) into site-specific LCA reports to simulate carbon and nitrogen dynamics within the wheat agro-ecosystem. This thesis addresses vital LCA information caliber matters through the use of finished sensitivity and uncertainty analyses and has led to numerous courses in the world over popular journals.

Thermoplastics and Thermoplastic Composites: Technical Information for Plastics Users

Thermoplastics symbolize appx ninety% through weight of all plastics ate up world-wide. we all know them usually within the type of polythenes, polyolefins, polystyrenes, nylons and acrylics. below assorted heating stipulations and via various the composition of the plastic it really is attainable to make many various items with differing houses.

Polymer Melt Fracture

The continuously transforming into plastics marketplace comprises greater than 250 million a whole lot product every year, making the habitual challenge of polymer soften fracture an acute factor within the extrusion of those fabrics. offering a pictorial library of the various sorts of soften fracture and actual commercial extrusion soften fracture phenomena, Polymer soften Fracture offers pragmatic identity and business extrusion disorder remediation recommendations in response to specific experimental and theoretical findings from the final 50 years.

Chemistry, Manufacture and Applications of Natural Rubber (Woodhead Publishing in Materials)

The turning out to be call for for extra sustainable fabrics has ended in elevated examine at the homes of ordinary rubber. Chemistry, Manufacture and purposes of usual Rubber summarizes this examine and its value for the commercial functions of traditional rubber. Chapters partially one discover the homes and processing of typical rubber, together with the biosynthesis of usual rubber in numerous rubber-producing species, chemical amendment of average rubber for superior functionality, and the impact of strain-induced crystallization at the actual houses of traditional rubber.

Applications of Ionic Liquids in Polymer Science and Technology
