Abstract:
Abstract Polymer-Polymer blends containing ethylene-methacrylic copolymers (EMAA) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) (where PET is the minor component) have been investigated. The permeability properties and the morphology of these blends, when the polyolefin phase is mildly crosslinked with small amounts of an agent that preferentially crosslinks the ethylene copolymer was also studied. The permeability barrier properties of such polymer blends increase as the concentration of the crosslinking agents increase until excessive crosslinking takes place. The morphology of the blends – the size of the dispersed particles – change significantly as more coupling agents are used. These techniques afford us a novel technique to improve the permeability barrier properties by control of the particle size of the barrier polymer.

Abstract:
Polyethylene terephthalate is a thermoplastic polymer with a wide range of uses, including synthetic fibres and containers for beverages and other liquids. Recycling plastics reduces the amount of energy and natural resources needed to create virgin plastics. Polyethylene terephthalate containers and bottles are collected and then broken down into small flakes used to produce new products such as textile fibres. Thermo-mechanical degradation may happen during the recycling process and presence of contaminants affects the final product characteristics. Two kinds of recycled polyethylene terephthalate fibres were used for fabrics production: post-consumer polyethylene terephthalate fibres and a blend of post-consumer and post-industrial polyethylene terephthalate fibres. Focusing on knitted and flat-woven textile structures, main mechanical properties of the fabrics were assessed by various tests, like tensile strength test and wear resistance test. A comparative study with the current production of virgin polyethylene terephthalate fabrics was useful to evaluate high standards accordance for automotive field. Both knitted and flat-woven recycled polyethylene terephthalate fabrics had excellent performance after mechanical tests. Post-consumer polyethylene terephthalate fabrics had the best results, especially after wear resistance test. These results allow an evaluation of their applications.

Abstract:
The purpose of the present study is to modify the polyethylene terephthalate ligament with hydroxyapatite via biomineralization and to investigate its effect on graft-bone healing. After biomineralization of hydroxyapatite, the surface characterization of polyethylene terephthalate ligament was examined by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and water contact angle measurements. The compatibility and osteoinduction, along with the underlying signaling pathway involved of hydroxyapatite-polyethylene terephthalate ligament, were evaluated in vitro. Moreover, a rabbit anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction model was established, and the polyethylene terephthalate or hydroxyapatite-polyethylene terephthalate artificial ligament was implanted into the knee. The micro-computed tomography analysis, histological, and immunohistochemical examination as well as biomechanical test were performed to investigate the effect of hydroxyapatite coating in vivo. The results of scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction showed that the hydroxyapatite was successfully deposited on the polyethylene terephthalate ligament. Water contact angle of the hydroxyapatite-polyethylene terephthalate group was significantly smaller than that of the polyethylene terephthalate group. The in vitro study showed that hydroxyapatite coating significantly improved adhesion and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells. The osteogenic differentiation of cells was also enhanced through the activation of ERK1/2 pathway. The micro-computed tomography, histological, and immunohistochemical results showed that biomineralization of hydroxyapatite significantly promoted new bone and fibrocartilage tissue formation at 12 weeks postoperatively. Moreover, the failure load and stiffness in the hydroxyapatite-polyethylene terephthalate group were higher than that in the polyethylene terephthalate group. Therefore, biomineralizaion of hydroxyapatite enhances the biocompatibility and osseointegration of the polyethylene terephthalate artificial ligament, thus promoting graft-bone healing for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction through the activation of ERK1/2 pathway.

Abstract:
In recent years, the biodegradation of polyethylene glycol terephthalate has become an important direction in solving the problem of environmental pollution with plastic waste. This review generalizes the latest data on various microorganisms capable of biodegrading polyethylene glycol terephthalate. The mechanisms of enzymatic reactions of polyethylene glycol terephthalate hydrolysis and the structure of biodegradation enzymes are elucidated. Challenges to the industrial implementation of polyethylene glycol terephthalate biodegradation are considered along with proposals on the promotion of appropriate waste disposal technologies. Biodegradation comprises a promising method for the environmentally friendly and efficient disposal of waste plastics. So far, no commercial biodegradation technologies for recycling polyethylene glycol terephthalate have been developed. This area is attracting increased research attention, which is expected to result in the appearance of cost-effective and high-tech biodegradation processes. Future advances are likely to be based on synthetic biology and metabolic engineering strategies capable of constructing artificial microbial consortia and modifying microbial polyethylene glycol terephthalate hydrolases aimed at a more complete biodegradation and bioconversion of polyethylene glycol terephthalate and other complex polymers.

Abstract:
Structure and properties of polyethylene terephthalate were characterized by SAM, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, and thermal analysis to evaluate the effect of supercritical CO2 on the structural behavior. The dynamic shrinking behavior of polyethylene terephthalate was analyzed using the Kelvin-Voigt model. The results indicated that uneven and significantly different surface of the polyethylene terephthalate fiber was displayed since the spinning oil and other additives added in spinning process were rinsed in super-critical CO2. The slight shifts for the characteristic bands of polyethylene terephthalate in Fourier transform infrared spectrometry were observed due to some re-arrangements and recrystallizations of the molecule chains after supercritical CO2 treatment. Simultaneously, the crystallinities and the fastest thermal decomposition temperatures of polyethylene terephthalate were improved slightly from 80?C to 120?C in supercritical CO2. Furthermore, the shrinkage of the treated polyethylene terephthalate samples was increased gradually from 2.73% to 3.35% with the temperature raising.

Abstract:
To prevent decorative textiles from fires, forty seven fabrics sampled from the Potala Palace were first identified by burning and optical projection microscope tests. The main component fibers were figured out to be cellulose fiber (viscose, most much used), synthetic fibers (polyethylene terephthalate, polyamide and polypropylene, secondly much used) and protein fibers (silk and wool, a little used). The five warp and weft blending forms were found to be: Polyethylene Terephthalate and Polyethylene Terephthalate, (Polyamide or Polyethylene Terephthalate or Silk or Viscose or Wool) and Viscose, Viscose and Silk, (Polyethylene Terephthalate or Polyamide) and Polypropylene, Viscose and Polyamide. Such identification work has been done academically for the first time, and it is important for the safe conservation of special Tibet historical buildings and internal cultural relics.

Abstract:
Two novel amphiphilic polyethylene amine terephthalate have been prepared via the glycolsis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The product, bis (2-hydroxyethyl terephthalate) (BHET), was converted to the corresponding dialkyl halide, bis(2-chloroethyl) terephthalate (BCET), using thionyl chloride (TC). This dialkyl compound was used for alkylation of dodecyl amine (DOA) and tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) or pentaethylenehexamine (PEHA) to form the corresponding polyethylene amine terephthalate, i.e., DOAT and DOAP, respectively. Their chemical structure, surface tension, interfacial tension (IFT), and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were determined using different techniques. The efficiency of the prepared polyethylene amine terephthalate to demulsify water in heavy crude (W/O) emulsions was also determined and found to increase as their concentrations increased. Moreover, DOAT showed faster and higher efficiency, and cleaner separation than DOAP.

Abstract:
Layer-by-layer assembly is a simple and effective method which has been widely studied to improve the flame retardancy of textiles in recent years. In this article, flame-retardant and anti-dripping polyethylene terephthalate fabrics were successfully prepared by layer-by-layer assembly branched polyethylenimine and ammonium polyphosphate on their surface. The results of limiting oxygen index values and vertical burning test revealed that the flame retardancy and anti-dripping performance of polyethylene terephthalate fabrics were improved after the layer-by-layer assembly treatment; especially, the dripping phenomenon was eliminated when the number of branched polyethylenimine/ammonium polyphosphate bilayers was over 10. The influence of alkali treatment of polyethylene terephthalate fabrics before layer-by-layer assembly was also investigated. The results showed that alkali treatment of the polyethylene terephthalate fabrics would promote the combination of polyethylene terephthalate fabrics and the charged flame retardants indicating better flame retardancy. The results of thermogravimetric analysis revealed that layer-by-layer assembly treatment of polyethylene terephthalate fabrics would promote char formation both under the nitrogen atmosphere and under the air atmosphere which may act through condensed phase action. The scanning electron microscopy images of the char residues revealed that the layer-by-layer assembly treatment of polyethylene terephthalate fabrics would promote the formation of a compact and intact char residue, which was beneficial for the improvement of flame retardancy and anti-dripping performance. This research would provide the experimental basis for the effective flame retardancy and anti-dripping performance of polyethylene terephthalate fabric.

Abstract:
This project aims to investigate the influence of UV on the properties under natural and artificial weathering. The real-time outdoor weathering exposures provide the most accurate results but, they are very slow and manufacturers cannot afford to wait in order to see if a new or improved product formulation is really an improvement. So, accelerated testing methods are designed to simulate natural weathering with the combined action of the most weathering damaging factors; UV radiation, oxygen, temperature and water. Whatever the application, there is a concern regarding the durability of the products because if its useful lifetime can be estimated in short time, their maintenance and replacement can be planned in advance. In this study, recycled PET samples were exposed to UV outdoors and to accelerated weathering up to 13,000 hr. The mechanical behaviour (tensile and impact), thermal behaviour (DSC), molecular structure analysis (FTIR), flow characteristics (MFI) and surface properties (colour and gloss) of the samples were investigated. The whole body of the samples was substantially unaffected by degradation for long exposure time and this is confirmed by MFI and DSC results. However, the surface of the samples is affected which is seen in FTIR analysis, colour and gloss change. This explains that the photodegradation is a surface effect. FTIR analysis shows an increase in the gauche ratio and decrease in the trans ratio for both types of weathering indicating a less ordered structure after the UV radiation due to chain scission by Norrish Type I and II mechanism. Carboxylic acid is formed as a result of degradation and increases with the extent of UV exposure in both types of weathering, the formation of carboxylic acid by Norrish II is dominated over Norrish I. Colour and gloss measurement shows that the effect of degradation takes place strongly in the first 2000 hr of exposure in natural weathering and extended up to 5000 hr in accelerating weathering due to the formation of microcracks. Mechanical tests show that the UV effect was not significant on bulk properties such as yield stress and elongation at yield for accelerated weathering samples up to 1000 hours, then dropped by 62% and 57% respectively up to 13000hr of exposure and remained unchanged for the whole period of exposure for outdoors samples. The drop in the failure stress and elongation at failure for accelerated weathering samples right from the beginning indicate the formation of microcracks is from the early stages of exposure. For outdoor samples, failure stress remained unchanged for the first 1000 hr of sunlight exposure, then decreases progressively with increasing exposure in the environment. The elongation to failure is unchanged up to 13000 hours. After 13000 hrs of exposure to sunlight, r-PET samples failed to break while those exposed to UV lamps failed in a brittle manner under impact after 250 hrs and this indicates the transition from ductile to brittle behaviour just after 10 days of accelerated UV exposure because of crack formation. For accelerated weathering samples, the impact strength remained unchanged in the first 1000 hr of exposure, then a decrease up to 5000 hr of exposure when the effects of flaws become significant and dropped sharply by 85% after 5000hr of exposure. The correlation between both types of weathering shows that one year in natural weathering is equivalent to one and a half months in accelerated weathering according to colour measurements. The effect of accelerated weathering is much bigger than the natural weathering and this is due to higher radiation dosage, temperature and humidity during the test which accelerate chain scission rate that lead to faster crack growth.

Abstract:
The prospect of obtaining desired surface-mediated characteristics while retaining bulk-mediated physical properties and avoiding potential environmental issues with wet chemical technology lends considerable appeal to photochemical approaches to surface modification.;We undertook a combined experimental and computational approach to investigate the effect of deep UV irradiation on the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) surface. its response to 172 nm UV from a xenon examiner lamp in the absence of oxygen was characterized with X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Time of Flight/Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF/SIMS), transmission infrared spectroscopy (IR), and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). The surface chemistry details suggested that the primary photochemical reactions involved a Norrish type I based decarbonylation and a Norrish type II process yielding terminal carboxylic acid groups, consistent with the possible photochemistry from n-pi* type lowest singlet excited states of PET according to the computational modeling results. By directly populating n-pi* type excited states, 172 nm UV promoted effective surface photochemistry of PET with further helps from the high UV absorptivity and the high surface mobility of the molecules.;Utilizing this active surface radical chemistry, a new grafting strategy was developed to impart desirable functional properties to the surface. A broad range of grafting chemicals can be employed in their vapor forms, demonstrated with an alkene or an alkane. Surface analysis with XPS, ToF/SIMS, AFM, and water contact angle measurements confirmed the effectiveness of the approach, supporting the notion of the surface radical initiated processes.;A potentially useful anti-stain/soil coating was developed by grafting with a fluorocarbon species. Surface analysis suggested that the grafted fluorocarbon formed a nano-scale self-assembled monolayer. The coating had a similar water contact angle as that of a pure fluoropolymer but a better oil repellency due to the special molecular orientation in the graft layer.;A potential antimicrobial application was demonstrated with amine chemicals. Structure characterization and computational modeling results suggested that the photochemistry of the UV active grafting chemicals also played an important role in the grafting process. A double bond structure in the amine species protected the amine functional groups and the resulting coating demonstrated antimicrobial activity against E. coli.

O presente estudo teve como principal objetivo demonstrar que fibras derivadas da reciclagem de garrafas PET (Polietileno Tereftalato), confeccionadas com 100 porcento do resíduo, pela indústria têxtil, podem ser uma boa alternativa se utilizadas como reforço de solos, quando submetidos a diferentes níveis de cargas. Buscando uma melhor aplicabilidade para este material, foram executados ensaios de compressão triaxial drenados em laboratório, bem como ensaios de prova de carga em placa e também com simulação de um talude em modelo físico reduzido, para a determinação do comportamento mecânico de uma areia e do compósito areia-fibras PET. Para os ensaios triaxiais drenados, foram utilizadas fibras PET com dois títulos (correspondente ao diâmetro das fibras) e comprimentos distintos (1,4 dtex com 38 mm e 3,3 dtex com 56 mm), inseridas aleatoriamente na massa de solo, onde foi utilizado o teor de 0,5 porcento de fibras, em relação ao peso seco do solo, teor de umidade de 10 porcento e densidade relativa de 50 porcento. Os resultados mostraram que o comportamento da areia pura é influenciado pela adição de fibras PET, melhorando os parâmetros de resistência, como o intercepto coesivo e o ângulo de atrito, definidos pelo critério de Mohr-Coulomb. O compósito reforçado com as fibras PET de menor título e menor comprimento apresentou um maior ganho na resistência ao cisalhamento, mas ambos os compósitos, em comparação ao solo não reforçado, apresentaram uma maior resistência. Para os ensaios de prova de carga em placa e para a simulação do talude, ambos realizados em modelo físico reduzido, foram utilizadas as fibras de menor título e menor comprimento como elemento de reforço. Observa-se que a inserção das fibras PET melhora o comportamento carga-recalque da areia pura, onde o compósito reforçado apresenta uma maior capacidade de suporte e a redução dos recalques, bem como uma mudança na propagação e formação das fissuras ao redor da placa. Na simulação do talude, a inserção das fibras PET promove uma alteração completa no mecanismo de ruptura ocorrido no compósito, quando comparado à ruptura da areia pura. Ressalta-se o emprego positivo das fibras PET para aplicação como reforço de solos em obras geotécnicas (como por exemplo, em camadas de aterros sanitários, aterros sobre solos moles, reforço de taludes, base de fundações superficiais e controle de erosão), além de eliminar problemas atuais de disposição de resíduos, dando um fim mais nobre a este material, com benefícios ambientais, sociais e econômicos.
The main objective of this study was to demonstrate that fibers derived from the recycling of PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottle, 100 percent made from the residue by the textile industry, can be a good alternative if used as reinforcement of soil, when submitted to different load levels. Looking for a better applicability for this material, were executed drained triaxial compression tests in laboratory, as well as plate load tests, also with slope simulation in a reduced physic model, to evaluate the mechanical behavior of a sand and a composite sand-PET fibers. For the drained triaxial tests, were used PET fibers with two different titles (corresponding to the fiber diameters) and lenghts (1,4 dtex com 38 mm e 3,3 dtex com 56 mm), distributed randomly in the soil mass, where was used a fiber contente of 0,5 percent by relation to the soil s dry weight, moisture content of 10 percent and relative density of 50 percent. The results showed that the pure sand behavior was influenced by the addition of PET fibers, improving the strenght parameters as the cohesion intercept and the friction angle, defined by the Mohr-Coulomb criteria. The composite reinforced with PET fibers with minor title and lenght presented a better improvement in the shear strenght, but both composites, compared to the non reinforced soil, showed greater resistence. For the plate load tests and for the slope simulation, both performed in a reduced physic model, it was used the fiber with minor title and lenght as reinforcement element. The addiction of PET fibers improve the load-settlement behavior of the sand, where the reinforced composite shows a greater bearing capacity, a reduction of the settlements and a change in the propagation and formation of fissures around the plate. In the slope simulation, the addiction of PET fibers promove a complete alteration in the rupture mechanism that occurred in the composite, when compared to the rupture of the pure sand. It is highlighted the positive use of PET fibers for application as soil reinforcement in geotechnical works (as an example, in landfill layers, embankment on soft soil, slope reinforcement, base of shallow foundations and erosion control), eliminating current problems of waste disposal, giving a noble end to this material, with environmental, social and economical benefits.

Abstract:
In this research catalyzed degradation of polyethylene terephthalate was performed. For that purpose, ZSM-5 zeolite was synthesized as an acid catalyst. For its characterization N2 adsorption, scanning electron microscopy, NH3 temperature programmed desorption, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, dynamic light scattering, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were utilized. Degradation reactions were performed in high pressure crucibles using differential scanning calorimeter at different temperatures (200, 250 and 300) °C and time intervals (2.5, 5, 10 and 15) min. Samples were analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography coupled with UV-VIS detector. The results revealed that the highest conversion was achieved at 300 °C and 10 min. The analysis of obtained results showed that despite the differences in conversions being not as high as expected, reactions with the catalyst were slightly more effective than without it. For the future work, we plan to finetune the synthesis procedure to obtain more active catalyst. And for the upgrade of the study the kinetic analysis of the reaction will be conducted.

Abstract:
COVID-19, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, was first reported in China in December 2019. The virus has spread rapidly around the world and is currently responsible for 500 million reported cases and over 6.4 million deaths. A risk assessment published by the Foods Standards Agency (FSA) in 2020 (Opens in a new window) concluded that it was very unlikely that you could catch coronavirus via food. This assessment included the worst-case assumption that, if food became contaminated during production, no significant inactivation of virus would occur before consumption. However, the rate of inactivation of virus on products sold at various temperatures was identified as a key uncertainty, because if inactivation does occur more rapidly in some situations, then a lower risk may be more appropriate. This project was commissioned to measure the rate of inactivation of virus on the surface of various types of food and food packaging, reducing that uncertainty. The results will be used to consider whether the assumption currently made in the risk assessment remains appropriate for food kept at a range of temperatures, or whether a lower risk is more appropriate for some. We conducted a laboratory-based study, artificially contaminating infectious SARS-CoV-2 virus onto the surfaces of foods and food packaging. We measured how the amount of infectious virus present on those surfaces declined over time, at a range of temperatures and relative humidity levels, reflecting typical storage conditions. We tested broccoli, peppers, apple, raspberry, cheddar cheese, sliced ham, olives, brine from the olives, white and brown bread crusts, croissants and pain au chocolat. The foods tested were selected as they are commonly sold loose on supermarket shelves or uncovered at deli counters or market stalls, they may be difficult to wash, and they are often consumed without any further processing i.e. cooking. The food packaging materials tested were polyethylene terephthalate (PET1) trays and bottles; aluminium cans and composite drinks cartons. These were selected as they are the most commonly used food packaging materials or consumption of the product may involve direct mouth contact with the packaging. Results showed that virus survival varied depending on the foods and food packaging examined. In several cases, infectious virus was detected for several hours and in some cases for several days, under some conditions tested. For a highly infectious agent such as SARS-CoV-2, which is thought to be transmissible by touching contaminated surfaces and then the face, this confirmation is significant. For most foods tested there was a significant drop in levels of virus contamination over the first 24 hours. However, for cheddar cheese and sliced ham, stored in refrigerated conditions and a range of relative humidity, the virus levels remained high up to a week later, when the testing period was stopped. Both cheddar cheese and sliced ham have high moisture, protein and saturated fat content, possibly offering protection to the virus. When apples and olives were tested, the virus was inactivated to the limit of detection very quickly, within an hour, when the first time point was measured. We suggest that chemicals, such as flavonoids, present in the skin of apples and olives inactivate the virus. The rate of viral decrease was rapid, within a few hours, for croissants and pain au chocolat. These pastries are both coated with a liquid egg wash, which may have an inhibitory effect on the virus. Food packaging materials tested had variable virus survival. For all food packaging, there was a significant drop in levels of virus contamination over the first 24 hours, in all relative humidity conditions and at both 6°C and 21°C; these included PET1 bottles and trays, aluminium cans and composite drinks cartons.
