Abstract | ||
Ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) with different percentage of nano tungsten powder (0wt%, 30wt %, 45wt %, 60wt%, and 70wt %) composites (EVA/W nano-composites) were prepared by melt blending in a twin-screw brabender. The structural, morphological, thermal and mechanical properties of the prepared nano-composites were investigated using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA). It was found that the EVA composites show a higher thermal stability at high levels of tungsten loading. | ||
