Effects of the Glycerol/Quercetin Ratio on the Structure and Tensile Behavior of PVA-Based Films

Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-based films containing glycerol and quercetin were prepared by casting as potential active-packaging materials. The effects of the glycerol/quercetin ratio on structural, thermal, mechanical, barrier, and antioxidant properties were investigated. Neat PV...

Rheological, Viscoelastic, and Dynamic Mechanical Behavior of ZnO-Filled and MA-Modified PP/SEBS Filaments for Fused Filament Fabrication

Abstract Immiscible polyolefin–elastomer blends often exhibit limited impact resistance and unstable melt-flow behavior due to weak interfacial adhesion and inefficient stress transfer between phases. These limitations are relevant for fused filament fabrication (FFF), where fila...
