Abstract The development of new nano-biocomposites has been one of the main research areas of interest in polymer science in recent years, since they can combine the intrinsic biodegradable nature of matrices with the ability to modify their properties by the addition of selected nano-reinforcements. In this work, the addition of mineral nanoclays (montmorillonites and sepiolites) to a commercial starch-based matrix is proposed. A complete study on their processing by melt-intercalation techniques and further evaluation of the main properties of nano-biocomposites has been carried out. The results reported show an important infl uence of the nano-biocomposites morphology on their fi nal… More >

Abstract In this article, we study different molecular structures such as Polythiophene network, for and , Orthosilicate (Nesosilicate) , Pyrosilicates (Sorosilicates) , Chain silicates (Pyroxenes), and Cyclic silicates (Ring Silicates) for their cardinalities, chromatic numbers, graph variations, eigenvalues obtained from the adjacency matrices which are square matrices in order and their corresponding characteristics polynomials. We convert the general structures of these chemical networks in to mathematical graphical structures. We transform the molecular structures of these chemical networks which are mentioned above, into a simple and undirected planar graph and sketch them with various techniques of mathematics. The matrices obtained from these… More >
