(
Public Library of Science
, 2017 , Article)
Novel 2D Ti3C2Tx (MXene)-reinforced polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibers have been successfully fabricated by an electrospinning technique. The high aspect ratio, hydrophilic surfaces, and metallic conductivity of delaminated ...
Cold Plasma as Effective Tool for Aluminum Surface Cleaning
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Aluminum (Al) is heavily used to manufacture structural parts in the aeronautic, railway, automotive or naval industries because of its lightness and its corrosion resistance [1]. One of the most popular uses of Al is in ...
