Polyethylene is a polymer which is composed of a carbon double bond is converted to a unilateral Association to be more elastic , and is used in plastics production and film industry, as well as in our daily lives, such as pots and lids aluminum profiles also in shopping bags, glass cleaners and fuel tanks car, in addition to that used in engraving and weaving in synthetic fibers and adjusted to take qualities of flexibility, such as rubber. Polyethylene (abbreviated PE) or polyethene (IUPAC name polyethene or poly(methylene)) is the most common plastic. The annual global production is around 80 million tonnes. Its primary use is in packaging (plastic bags, plastic films, geomembranes, containers including bottles, etc.). Many kinds of polyethylene …show more content…
>Physical, chemical properties The high density polyethylene is a thermoplastic resin. At room temperature the density is between 0,94 and 0,96 g/cm³, about 60 % is crystalline the remaining is amorphous. Between 125° - 135° C, polyethylene melts and the viscosity is molecular weight dependent. The melt density drops to 0,80 g/cm³. The polyethylene resists to the most chemical products and solvents. Only some substances, such as the decahydronaphtalene or some aromatic or halogenated hydrocarbons, dissolve the polyethylene at high temperatures. The chemical destruction of polyethylene can occur only under the action of strong oxidizing agents such as fuming nitric acid or fuming sulphuric acid. >Mechanical properties: Polyethylene is of low strength, hardness and rigidity, but has a high ductility and impact strength as well as low friction. It shows strong creep under persistent force, which can be reduced by addition of short fibers. It feels waxy when touched. >Thermal …show more content…
Its mechanical properties depend significantly on variables such as the extent and type of branching, the crystal structure, and the molecular weight. There are several types of polyethylene: 5 Chain branches: The properties of polyethylene are highly dependent on kind and number of chain branches. The chain branches in turn depend on the process used: either the high-pressure process (only PE-LD) or the low-pressure process (all other PE grades). Low-density polyethylene is result by the high-pressure process by radical polymerization, thereby numerous short chain branches as well as long chain branches are formed. Short chain branches are formed by intramolecular chain transfer reactions, they are always butyl or ethyl chain branches because the reaction proceeds after the following mechanism Mechanism for the emergence of side chains during synthesis of polyethylene (PE-LD). usage in real live:
Write 9-4x^2-x+2x^4 in standard form You first look at all the the numbers in the polynomial and see which coefficient has the highest number exponent. (the degree) which is 2x^4. Then you keeping descending down so -4x^2 would be next. Then you look at the numbers and variables in the problem, all you have left is 9 and -x you always put the variable first so it would be -x, then 9. So your answer would be
The knowledge of imaginary numbers leads to Richard pondering the reality of his day, “Imaginary or real cells dividing in biology? Imaginary or real French fries at lunch? Imaginary or real boys undressing in the locker room?” (200). Richard begins doubting everything he sees before math class and throughout the day.
5. Public trials and executions serve as a deterance of deviant behaviors. These sanctions act as a way to set an example and for people to see what will happen to them if they do the same thing, These sanctions can also be seen as reinforcing boundaries. Although public executions and trials in “town square” are not as common in most countries today, the media is utilized to fulfil the same purpose. When there are high profile cases going on in the United States often tmes the full trial and sentancings are televised so that much of society can see what the repercussions are for defying a social norm.
Images can be deceiving and have a direct purpose intended by the creator. Knowing the purpose and goal behind the image will help us to see how it is being used to persuade the viewer. Virtual analysis gives us the ability to see what is beyond the image displayed. We can try to interpret and breakdown the content. An example of how analysis is useful is a detective in a murder investigation between a husband and wife. .
Temperature of the liquid will raise when the entire solid has melted. An impure solid generally melts over a range of temperatures below the melting point of the principal component. Discussion: The main application of melting is chocolate moulding.
Stoichiometry is a method used in chemistry that involves using relationships between reactants and products in a chemical reaction, to determine a desired quantitative data. The purpose of the lab was to devise a method to determine the percent composition of NaHCO3 in an unknown mixture of compounds NaHCO3 and Na2CO. Heating the mixture of these two compounds will cause a decomposition reaction. Solid NaHCO3 chemically decomposes into gaseous carbon dioxide and water, via the following reaction: 2NaHCO3(s) Na2CO3(s) + H2O(g) + CO2(g). The decomposition reaction was performed in a crucible and heated with a Bunsen burner.
Introduction The purpose of this week’s lab was to enhance our understanding of the Grignard reagents that were examined in lecture. In this lab, a Grignard reagent will be prepared through the reaction of magnesium turnings and bromobenzene. Instead of isolating the product it will then be combined with benzophenone, which will give the final product of triphenylmethanol. Procedure
The data table provided below obtained melting point data for crude product, pure product, and mixture of the pure and 4-tert-butylbenzyl. 12. The TLC data obtained is provided in a table below. The TLC data was conducted solely in a 9:1 hexane/ethyl acetate solvent solution as opposed to the 1:1 and pure hexane solution as well. This was due to the lack of time, but as explained in number 7, a very polar solvent (1:1 solution) or non-polar solvent (pure hexane) is not ideal when obtaining
The reason plastic is used in many products is because it can withstand up to tons of pressure per cm3, is cheap, is durable, and finally, there is no worry for discoloring. But these days, plastic is becoming a major problem the world has to deal with. Plastic is thrown into the ocean, and it is breaking down into very small pieces, and killing marine life, as they mistake those pieces to their prey. As a matter of fact, nearly all plastics are recyclable, but it 's the recycling companies ' machines that refuse to recycle that kind of plastic(eartheasy.com). I. Plastic, what have you done?
Do you think Alice Thornton’s proposal to decentralize the rules and procedures of Cosmo Plastics will work? Alice proposal of decentralizing the rules and procedures in Cosmo Plastics has a bigger chance of working out in a big company with different departments and great number of employees, because then daily operations and decision-making are divided into different authorities in the organization from the top managements, to the middle and lower level managements. Especially when you have this flexibility in work hours, because some departments in the company need constant attention and discipline from the side of employees, decentralizing is needed to divide the controlling process. On another scale, small groups will be formed, employees
Introduction Solubility is a chemical property that is measured in terms of the maximum amount of solute dissolved in a solvent at equilibrium. The resulting solution is called saturated solution. For example when a sample of sodium chloride solution in water is heated the behavior of the reaction is endothermic obstructing exothermic behavior. Another relationship that can be said about solubility is that the solubility of a solid substance increases as the temperature increases. The solubility of solutes is dependent on temperature.
The former can be heated and shaped and are used in the modern world many times, containing everything from children's toys to toilet seats. Because they can be melted down and reshaped, thermoplastics are usually recycled. Thermoset plastics can only be heated and shaped once, after which the molecular changes mean they are “cured,” retaining their shape and strength even when they are subjected to intense heat and the pressure. Thermoset plastics plays a vital part in our modern world.
