Effect of processing route on the morphology of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) nanocomposites incorporating organofluoromica
Azlin Fazlina, Osman; Jack, Kevin; Edwards, Grant; Martin, Darren (Trans Tech Publications, 2014)In the production of polymer nanocomposites, the processing method determines the dispersion of the nanofiller and hence, the final nanocomposite properties. In this work, the potential of high energy milling of the ... -
Effects of processing method and nanofiller size on mechanical properties of biomedical thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) nanocomposites
Azlin Fazlina, Osman; Edwards, Grant; Martin, Darren (Trans Tech Publications, 2014-03)The effects of processing method and nanofiller size on mechanical performance of biomedical thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU)-organosilicate nanocomposites were examined. High energy milled organofluoromica nanofillers ... -
Impact of controlled hydrophobicity of the organically modified silicates on the properties of biomedical thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) nanocomposites
Azlin Fazlina, Osman; Halley, Peter; Martin, Darren (Trans Tech Publications, 2013-09)The impact of nanofiller surface modifications and hydrophobicity on the morphology and mechanical properties of the biomedical TPU nanocomposites was studied. We show that incorporating nanofillers with higher hydrophobicity ... -
In vitro biostability of poly(dimethyl siloxane/hexamethylene oxide)-based polyurethane/layered silicate nanocomposites
Andriani, Yosephine; Morrow, Isabel C.; Taran, Elena; Edwards, Grant A.; Schiller, Tara L.; Azlin Fazlina, Osman; Martin, Darren J. (Elsevier Ltd., 2013-09)We have prepared a number of silicone-based thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) nanocomposites and demonstrated an enhancement of in vitro biostability against metal-ion-induced oxidation for potential use in long-term ... -
Organization of mixed dimethyldioctadecylammonium and choline modifiers on the surface of synthetic hectorite
Andriani, Yosephine; Jack, Kevin S.; Gilbert, Elliot P.; Edwards, Grant A.; Schiller, Tara L.; Strounina, Ekaterina V.; Azlin Fazlina, Osman; Martin, Darren J. (Elsevier Inc., 2013-11)Understanding the nature of mixed surfactant self-assembly on the surface of organoclays is an important step toward optimizing their performance in polymer nanocomposites and for other potential applications, where selective ...
