Oil-based mud waste reclamation and utilisation in low-density polyethylene composites. (2020)
Journal Article
SIDDIQUE, S., YATES, K., MATTHEWS, K., CSETENYI, L.J. and NJUGUNA, J. 2020. Oil-based mud waste reclamation and utilisation in low-density polyethylene composites. Waste management and research [online], 38(12), pages 1331-1344. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1177/0734242X20941076

Oil-based mud (OBM) waste from the oil and gas exploration industry can be valorised to tailor-made reclaimed clay-reinforced low-density polyethylene (LDPE) nanocomposites. This study aims to fill the information gap in the literature and to provide... Read More about Oil-based mud waste reclamation and utilisation in low-density polyethylene composites..

Structural and thermal degradation behaviour of reclaimed clay nano-reinforced low density polyethylene nanocomposites. (2019)
Journal Article
SIDDIQUE, S., SMITH, G.D., YATES, K., MISHRA, A.K., MATTHEWS, K., CSETENYI, L.J. and NJUGUNA, J. 2019. Structural and thermal degradation behaviour of reclaimed clay nano-reinforced low-density polyethylene nanocomposites. Journal of polymer research [online], 26, article ID 154. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1007/s10965-019-1802-9

In this study, a novel reclaimed clay nanofiller used to manufacture low-density polyethylene (LDPE)/Oil based mud fillers (OBMFs) nanocomposites by a melt compounding process. The mechanical testing samples were manufactured using injection mouldin...
