New application of crystalline cellulose in rubber composites

Creator:

Bai, Wen

Abstract:

Rubber without reinforcement has limited applications. The strength of reinforced rubber composites can be ten times stronger than that of unreinforced rubbers. Therefore, rubber composites are widely used in various applications ranging from automobile tires to seals, valves, and gaskets because of their excellent mechanical elastic properties. Silica and carbon...

Evaluation of mix ingredients on the performance of rubber-modified asphalt mixtures

Creator:

Takallou, Hossein B.

Abstract:

Rubber-modified asphalt pavements have been used in Sweden and the United States since the 1970's. In these applications ground recycled tire particles (0.25 inch minus) are added to a gap-graded aggregate and then mixed with hot asphalt cement. The benefits of adding rubber to the mix include increased skid resistance...

‘Tis a Gift to be Simple : On Passive Sampling and Compatible Techniques for Reducing the Complexity of Environmental Mixtures

Creator:

Bergmann, Alan J.

Abstract:

Assessing the risk from exposure to a chemical mixture in the environment can seem prohibitively challenging. Most components of the mixture are not readily identifiable, chemicals may interact to cause other-than-additive toxicity, and the number of potential combinations of environmental contaminants is enormous. These challenges can make it seem impossible...
