Insights into γ-irradiation effect on hole structure and conductivity of doped ethylene–propylene–diene rubber with different wheat husk fibers lengths by Hamdy F. M. Mohamed, Howayda G. Taha, Islam T. Zedan, Esam E. Abdel-Hady, Mohamed H. M. Hassanien, Hossam B. Alaa

“…Abstract In this paper, three samples of ethylene–propylene–diene monomer rubber (EPDM)/wheat husk fibers (WHF) with short (SW30), medium (EW30), and long (HW30) lengths of WHF were investigated as a function of γ-irradiation dose up to 300 kGy. The swelling coefficient Q of the toluene, benzene, and chloroform solvents was performed, and the Q reflects the ability of the polymer composites to absorb and retain a solvent within their structure. …”
