change in properties of composites. Carbon-based materials and graphite nanoparticles in particular in general enhance electronic‚ optical‚ thermal and mechanical properties of polymer matrixes [6-11]. To synthesize electroconductive composites graphite nanoparticles were used as filler material in many insulating polymers‚ for example epoxy‚ polystyrene‚ poly(methyl methacrylate)‚ thermoplastic polyurethane and many others [8]. Such composites attracted significant attention

IS PLASTIC BAD FOR THE ENVIRINMENT? A plastic material is any of a wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic organic solids that are moldable. Plastics are typically organic polymers of high molecular mass‚ but they often contain other substances. They are usually synthetic‚ most commonly derived from petrochemicals‚ but many are partially natural. Whether you are aware of it or not‚ plastics play an important part in your life. Plastics’ versatility allow it to be used in everything from car

recent matter is the use of plastic. The term "plastics" covers a range of synthetic or semi-synthetic organic condensation or polymerization products that can be molded or extruded into objects or films or fibers. They consist of long chains of polymers. Their name is derived from the fact that in their semi-liquid state they are malleable‚ or have the property of plasticity. Plastics vary immensely in heat tolerance‚ hardness‚ and resiliency. Combined with this adaptability‚ the general uniformity

Polyester Manufacturing Polyester fibers‚ the synthetic fibers‚ are long chain polymers derived from coal‚ air‚ water‚ and petroleum. They are formed through chemical reaction between an acid and alcohol. In this reaction‚ two or more molecules combine to make a large molecule whose structure repeats throughout its length. These molecules are very stable and strong. There are variations in the compositions and therefore in the properties of polyester fibers. Types of Polyester The polyester
