Influence of Compatibilizers on the Morphology, Mechanical, Thermal andRheological Properties of Polypropylene/Organomuscovite Nanocomposites
Abstract: In this study, the effects of two different compatibilizer types-maleated polypropylene and hexamethylenediamine modified maleated polypropylene-on the characteristics of a polypropylene/maleated polypropylene/organo-muscovite clay nanocomposite were investigated. By combining polypropylene with three different levels of organo-muscovite clay content, two distinct compatibilizers were used to make the nanocomposites, each with a fixed amount of 10 weight percent. The compatibilizer's effects on the morphological, mechanical, thermal, and rheological characteristics of nanocomposites were then …

Harvesting and Managing Rainwater
Abstract: Rainfall harvesting, or RWH, is the practice of gathering and holding onto rainfall rather than allowing it to run off. This water is typically gathered from surfaces like rooftops and redirected into tanks, cisterns, wells, aquifers, or reservoirs that allow it to percolate and replenish groundwater. Additionally, dew and fog can be captured using nets or similar devices. Unlike stormwater harvesting, which collects runoff from various surfaces, RWH focuses on …
