✦ Synopsis

The presented studies are focused on the dependence of paper sheet strength properties such as tear resistance, burst, and extensibility on the composition of additive [chitosan blends with poly(vinyl alcohol) and gelated starch]. Chitosan acetate (cationic) and its blends caused an improvement of the strength properties of paper sheets by the substantial modification of cellulose (anionic) fibers, probably through the presence of strong ionic interactions.

Mica was incorporated in ABS/PC:65/35 blends prepared on a Haake Torque Rheometer System 9000 with Rheomix 600 mixer. To improve the polymer/filler interaction, a treatment using silane on mica surface was performed. Studies were conducted concerning mechanical properties (flexural and impact streng

Flyash is an inexpensive material that can reduce the overall cost of the composite if used as a filler for unsaturated polyester resin (PR). Flyash-filled unsaturated polyester resin (FPR) was cast into sheets. The tensile strength, flexural strength, and flexural modulus were determined. Calcium c
