    Elasticity Paper In this paper, we will examine the elements of price elasticity. Also, we will discuss substitute and complement goods and the differences between them. Price elasticity is a concept used in economics to describe how a change in price affects a demand or supply curve; specifically, the degree of change in reaction to a price change (Heakel, 2015). Elasticity is measured by dividing the percentage of change of quantity by the percentage of change in price (Colander, 2013). The…

    1.1. Mechanical properties of CP/CNF and CP/CNF/ZIF-67 1.1.1. Stress–strain curves The stress–strain curves and the effects of CNF dosage on the tensile strength, elastic modulus, and elongation at break of CP/CNF and CP/CNF/ZIF-67 are shown in Fig. 3 and Tables S1–S4. As shown in Fig. 3(A) and Table S1, the tensile strength, elastic modulus, and elongation at break of neat CP is 7.37 MPa, 996 MPa, and 3.07%, respectively. After coating and crosslinking with CNFs, the mechanical properties of…
