AbstractAbstract
[en] In this study, the effect of high density polyethylene (HDPE) and calcium carbonate (CaCO3) addition into constant amount of low density polyethylene/linear low density polyethylene (LDPE/LLDPE) matrix was investigated by using different mechanical and thermal parameters. Then, analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to investigate the normal distribution of obtained data. Finally, sample containing 50 Phr of HDPE and 7 Phr of CaCO3 microparticles, was determined as optimized sample. The effect of different process parameters such as injecting back pressure, cooling and retention time, on mechanical and thermal properties of optimized sample was investigated as well. Also to investigate the effect of the number of recycling processes on the mechanical and thermal properties, two dominant degradation mechanisms were suggested. The first was the decreasing of chains molecular weight and formation of short length chains and the later was the formation of crosslinks and three dimensional networks. Results indicated that by increasing the number of recycling processes, crystallinity, melting point, modulus, strength at yielding point and toughness in comparison to pristine sample decreased at first and then showed an ascending trend. Elongation at break by increasing of the number of recycling processes, generally increased in comparison with initial sample. (paper)
