What are the effects of oils on the properties of Polyolefins? ..

Answer / Vimal Kumar

The effects of oil on the properties of polyolefins can be both positive and negative, depending on the type of oil, processing conditions, and specific application. Some common effects include:

- Softening: Oils with low flash points or high viscosity may cause polyolefin materials to soften during processing, leading to reduced mechanical properties and potential deformation.
- Plasticization: Certain oils can act as plasticizers by reducing the glass transition temperature (Tg) of polyolefins, improving flexibility and workability but potentially weakening thermal stability.
- Contamination: Oils can contaminate polyolefin materials during processing or use, leading to reduced performance, degraded mechanical properties, and potential failure over time.

According to Shockley equation, the I – V characteristic of a diode is approximated by I = IS [ exp (nVD / VT) – 1 ]. For silicon, let the reverse bias saturation current IS as 0.000000000001. If n is ideality factor with value of 1.5, VT as thermal voltage drop of 0.026 V at room temperature, what is the value of current I that passes through the silicon diode in the heater of evaporator when the forward voltage drop VD = 0.026 V? Please take note that exp is the exponential function with e(1) = 2.718, e(2) = 7.389.
