    • Cellulose nanofibers to assist the release of healing agents in epoxy coatings 

      Vijayan P, Poornima; Tanvir, Aisha; El-Gawady, Yara Hany; Al-Maadeed, Mariam ( Elsevier B.V. , 2017 , Article)
      Epoxy monomer and amine curing agents were immobilized on cellulose nanofibers (CNF). Obtained epoxy immobilized CNF (EiCNF) and amine curing agent immobilized CNF (AiCNF) were characterized using Fourier transform infrared ...

    • TiO2 nanotubes and mesoporous silica as containers in self-healing epoxy coatings 

      Vijayan P., Poornima; Al-Maadeed, Mariam Ali S.A. ( Nature Publishing Group , 2016 , Article)
      The potential of inorganic nanomaterials as reservoirs for healing agents is presented here. Mesoporous silica (SBA-15) and TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs) were synthesized. Both epoxy-encapsulated TiO2 nanotubes and amine-immobilized ...
