Abstract: The effect of ethylene–vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) addition on the rheological properties of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) was studied. EVA exhibited strain-hardening behavior in the transient elongational viscosity due to its long-chain branch structure, whereas PLA… read more here.

Abstract: A polymer ceramic precursor material—polycarbosilane (PCS)—was used as a synergistic additive with magnesium hydroxide (MH) in flame-retardant ethylene–vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) composites via the melt-blending method. The flame-retardant properties of EVA/MH/PCS were evaluated by the… read more here.
