"Wax deposition can cause a serious problem in the distribution process of crude oil through a pipeline. At low temperatures, wax molecules can interact to form a wax aggregate. One way to reduce the wax aggregation is to introduce an additive compound into the crude oil. In this study, 15 crude oil models were prepared by mixing gasoline, kerosene, oil, wax, and asphaltene. Oxirane ester copolymer (OEC) additive was introduced into the crude oil models with various concentrations and volumes, and its effect on the crude oil models’ pour point and viscosity were evaluated. OEC interactions with wax and asphaltene were observed by FTIR, and the wax aggregation process was observed using cross polarized microscopy (CPM). The optimum pour point of crude oil was reached at a temperature of 6oC and optimum viscosity at 10 cSt for the selected model 4. OEC additions of 5% and 10% require 500 and 300 µL, respectively, to achieve the optima pour point and viscosity. OEC was able to inhibit the wax aggregation, as evidenced from the interaction between OEC-wax at 722 cm-1 and OEC-asphaltene at 1604 and 1494 cm-1 of FTIR spectra. The distribution of the wax aggregate was observed using CPM, with the value of the wax appearance temperature (WAT) at 28.7oC. This research can be the basis for designing or selecting a molecule for use as a pour point depressant in accordance with the characteristics of crude oil, particularly since each source of crude oil has different characteristics."

In polypropylene thermoforming cup business, the quality of product can be achieved by the raw material with low melt flow rate (MFR). However, the high material cost condition has encouraged cup manufacturer to down gauge the cup weight and increase the productivity by using higher MFR.

In this study, a series of mechanical testing and statistical analysis have been used to empirically formulate the desired polypropylene based on MFR, atactic fraction, and ethylene copolymer aspects. On the basis of the investigation, it has been found that the best performance in drop test was provided by the sample with the MFR of 2.2?2.4 gr/10min, atactic fraction of 1.5?2.96 wt%, and ethylene copolymer content "

"Efek penambahan serat ijuk (Arenga Pinata) terhadap perilaku kristalisasi Polipropilena Kopolimer Impak (IPC) ditelaah menggunakan model kinetika Nakamura untuk solidifikasi non-isotermal. Model tersebut merupakan pengembangan dari model isotermal Avrami. Hasil permodelan kemudian dibandingkan dengan data DSC dari hasil eksperimen IPC yang ditambahkan 1%, dan 5% serat ijuk dengan temperatur pencampuran masing-masing 160 ^oC dan 165 o^C. Serat ijuk yang digunakan pada penilitian, sebelumnya telah diberi perlakuan alkalinisasi dengan larutan NaOH 6% selama 8 jam. Penambahan serat ijuk dapat menggeser nilai indeks Avrami (n) spesimen IPC yang pada kondisi murni memiliki nilai n=3. Penambahan serat ijuk sebesar 1% dan 5% fraksi masss pada suhu 160 ^oC dapat menurunkan nilai indeks Avrami masing-masing sampel menjadi 2.9268 dan 2.506. Nilai n yang mendekati 2 ini  menunjukan bahwa sampel cenderung mengalami pertumbuhan secara 1-dimensi dan menghasilkan struktur yang lebih kristalin Sedangkan penambahan serat ijuk sebesar 1% dan 5% pada suhu 160 ^oC menaikkan nilai indeks Avrami masing-masing menjadi 3.2726 dan 3.2489. Nilai n yang lebih besar dari 3 menunjukan arah pertumbuhan 2 dimensi dan menghasilkan struktur yang kurang kristalin.

We use Nakamura kinetic model for non-isothermal solidification to investigate the effect on the addition of Arenga Pinata fiber to the crystallization behavior of impact polypropylene copolymer (IPC). We compared the model predictions with the DSC non-isothermal crystallinity results of IPC with additions of 1%, and 5% Arenga Pinata fiber each mixed  at 160 ^oC and 165 ^oC. The fiber used in this experiment was previously pre-treated with 6% NaOH for 8 hours. The addition of Arenga Pinata fiber shift the Avrami index of pure IPC from the original value of 3. The addition of 1% and 5% of fiber at 160 ^oC mixing temperature decrease the Avrami Index to 2.9268 dan 2.506 respectively. It is indicating that the crystallization process was experiencing a 1-dimensional growth and result in a more crystalline structure. However, the addition of fiber at 165 ^oC mixing temperature increase the Avrami Index to 3.2726 dan 3.2489 respectively. It is indicating that the crystallization process was experiencing a 2-dimensional growth and result in a less crystalline structure."

"Fenomena kristalisasi dari material polipropilena kopolimer impak IPC dimodelkan secara non-isotermal dengan model kinetika Nakamura yang merupakan perluasan dari model kinetika isotermal Avrami. Teori Hoffman-Lauritzen digunakan di dalam kinetika Nakamura untuk menggambarkan kecepatan kristalisasi rata-rata sebagai fungsi dari temperatur. Beberapa parameter pada persamaan Hoffman-Lauritzen seperti konstanta nukleasi dan pre-exponential factor harus dikalibrasi terlebih dahulu dengan mengacu pada data differential scanning calorimetry DSC dari IPC murni. Hasil permodelan kemudian dibandingkan dengan data DSC dari hasil eksperimen IPC yang ditambahkan 5, 15, dan 25 serat kenaf dengan temperatur pencampuran 170oC dan waktu pencampuran 15 menit. Serat kenaf yang digunakan diberi perlakuan alkalinisasi dengan larutan NaOH 6 selama 8 jam. Penambahan konsentrasi serat kenaf memicu penurunan indeks Avrami n sampel dari n=3 menuju n=2. Indeks Avrami n=2 menunjukkan bahwa sampel mengalami kristalisasi dengan pertumbuhan secara 1-dimensi. Tetapi, terdapat beberapa perbedaan dari kurva kristalisasi antara hasil simulasi dan data eksperimen yang didapatkan. Perbedaan ini dapat disebabkan karena terjadinya fenomena secondary nucleation dan kurangnya masukan kalor yang diberikan pada saat proses pencampuran IPC dengan serat kenaf.

The non isothermal crystallization phenomenon of impact polypropylene copolymer IPC has been modeled using the Nakamura equation model which is an extension of the Avrami equation. The theory of Hoffman Lauritzen is used inside the Nakamura kinetic model to describe the average crystallization rate as a function of temperature. Some parameters of Hoffman Lauritzen need to be calibrated first by considering the differential scanning calorimetry DSC data of pure IPC. We compared the model predictions with the DSC non isothermal crystallinity results of IPC with additions of 5, 15, and 25 kenaf fiber. The mixing temperature and mixing time in this experiments were 170oC and 15 minutes, respectively. The kenaf fiber was pre treated with 6 NaOH for 8 hours. The addition of kenaf fiber showed a decrease in Avrami index of the sample from n 3 to n 2. Indicating that the crystallization process was experiencing a 1 dimensional growth. However, there were several discrepancies between the model predictions and experimental results. The phenomenon of secondary nucleation and the lack of heat input in IPC mixing process with the kenaf fiber could cause these differences."

This study details a semi-continuous polymerization process approach employed in copolymerization reaction of styrene/acrylic acid (St/AA) copolymers through the emulsion polymerization technique. The method encompasses several stages: preparing the initiator solution and monomer pre-emulsion, then subjecting them to a 5-hour process of heating and initiator solution and pre-emulsion addition within the temperature range of 70-80°C, with continue stirring of reaction maintained at 300 rpm. Polymerization characterization entails assessing glass transition temperature, solids content, viscosity, and finger print identification by FTIR spectrophotometer. Key components include styrene monomer, ammonium persulphate as the initiator, sodium lauryl sulfate as the surfactant, and demineralized water. There are five of distinct formulations were explored, spanning styrene without surfactant, with surfactant, and incorporating varying ratios of acrylic acid, specifically styrene with acrylic acid (20%) in compositions of 9:1, 8:2, and 7:3. Results indicate a reduction in the glass transition temperature value of the St/AA copolymer with the inclusion of acrylic acid at these ratios. Specifically, the glass transition temperature values for the St/AA copolymer compositions of 9:1, 8:2, and 7:2 stand at 64.24°C, 50.97°C, and 37.28°C, respectively. This study provides valuable insights into polymerization control and resultant product characteristics in latex synthesis."
