Fall 2016
Strain aging of microalloyed steel pipes, manufactured for oil and gas transmission, can occur during the anti-corrosion fusion bonded epoxy coating process (180°C - 250°C) and/or during long term storage or use. The primary mechanism of strain aging involves the segregation of interstitial...

Water Absorption and Performance Degradation of Natural Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites
DownloadFall 2017
Natural fiber reinforced polyethylene biocomposites are an environmentally friendly alternative to non-biodegradable thermoplastic materials. The addition of natural fibers to polyethylene improves mechanical properties such as tensile modulus and tensile strength. Unlike thermoplastics,...
