Abstract Swelling experiments were conducted on non-filler natural rubber (NR) using four solvents (toluene, cyclohexane, tetrahydrofuran (THF), and methylethylketone (MEK)) over temperatures from 10 to 70 °C. Toluene, cyclohexane, and THF, classified as effective solvents, showed swelling ratios between 3 and 7, influenced by the crosslink density...

Abstract The coating process is widely used in various industries to enhance the production quality and efficiency. This study gives a comprehensive analysis of non-isothermal blade coating of non-Newtonian nanofluid incorporating magnetic, thermophoresis, and Brownian effects. The Mathematical equations derived from mass, momentum, and energy conservation...

Abstract We employ statistical learning to present a principled framework for the establishment of quantitative structure-property relationships (QSPR). We focus on property predictions of industrial polymers formed by multiple reagents and at varying molecular weights. We develop a theoretical description of QSPR as well as a rigorous mathematical...

Dynamic properties of cyclic polymers including non-Gaussianity, heterogeneity, and subdiffusive diffusion are at odds with the predictions from theories of motions restricted by fixed obstacles, but are hallmarks of cooperative dynamics found in entangled linear polymers, and in many other nonpolymeric materials. The Coupling Model for cooperative...

The dimensions of network polymers having highly crosslinked domains are investigated systematically. The dimensions are larger for the networks having domains rather than the corresponding randomly connected homogeneous networks. The calibrated dimensions of network polymers start to follow the master curve relationship as the network maturity index...

This study uses dissipative particle dynamics simulation method to establish a model to simulate the phase separation process occurring in the photoinduced isomerization system under different influencing factors, to study the effects of different influencing factors on the gradient structure formed by the model, and to explore the mechanism of the...
