Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PLA IngeoTM Biopolymer 2003D was obtained from renewable resources, with a 4% content of D-lactide, supplied by NatureWorks LLC (Minnetonka, MN, USA), in the form of pellets, with a specific gravity of 1.25 g cm−3, Mw of 1.43 × 105 g mol−1, Mn of 7.54 × 104 g mol−1, and a dispersity index (ĐM) of 1.88 was used as a matrix for the developed biocomposites. PLA has been approved by the FDA for direct contact with biological fluids [4 (link)]. Sage (the medicinal plant Salvia officinalis L., S) leaves, commercially available from Fares, Orastie, Romania, were ground and sieved to obtain a fine powder of ~0.2 μm. Cold pressed coconut oil (CO) was purchased from SC Solaris Plant SRL, Bucuresti, Romania. Nanomer® I.31PS is a surface-modified montmorillonite nanoclay containing 15–35 wt% octadecylamine and 0.5–5 wt% aminopropyltriethoxysilane (Sigma–Aldrich, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) (Figure 11).

Thermal Degradation of Nanoclay Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Nanoclay samples (i.e., unmodified, bentonite (Nanomer PGV) and surface-modified clays: Nanomer I.31PS (0.5–5 wt % aminopropyltriethoxysilane and 15–35 wt % octadecylamine), I.34TCN (25–30 wt % methyl dihydroxylethyl hydrogenated tallow ammonium), and I.44P (35–45 wt % dimethyl dialkyl amine); Supplementary Figure 1a) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. Thermal degradation by incineration of such nanoclays was performed at 900 °C using a TGA701 Thermogravimetric Analyzer (LECO). Briefly, samples were heated at 6 °C/min from 25 to 105 °C in nitrogen to measure the moisture content and at 43 °C/min from 105 to 950 °C to determine the high volatile content. Next, samples were evaluated for ash content at 15 °C/min in O atmosphere and between 550 and 900 °C. Resultant ash was collected and used as a model for thermally degraded byproduct formation (referred to hereafter as PGV900, I31900, I34900, and I44900).23 (link),24 (link)

Bio-based Epoxy Nanocomposites with Natural Fibers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
DGEBA (diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A) epoxy resin (DER-331, Dow Chemical Company) and JOINTMINE 905-3s amine hardener were supplied by Tazdiq Engineering Sdn. Bhd. (Selangor, Malaysia). The epoxy equivalent weight and amine value of the hardener are 182–192 g eq.−1 and 300 ± 20 mg KOH per g, respectively. The unmodified montmorillonite (MMT), halloysite nanotubes (HNT) and organically modified MMT (OMMT, trade name Nanomer I.31PS) were all obtained from Sigma-Aldrich Malaysia and used as received. The specifications of the nanoclays are tabulated in Table 1. The non-woven bamboo mat and woven kenaf mat used in this study were supplied by Shijiangzhuang Bi Yang Technology Co. Ltd. (Hebei, China) and ZKK Sdn. Bhd. (Selangor, Malaysia), respectively. The specifications of the natural fibers are tabulated in Table 2.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
