(
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 ...
Carbon/nitrogen-doped TiO2: New synthesis route, characterization and application for phenol degradation
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Porous nanocrystalline carbon and nitrogen (CN)-doped TiO2 photocatalyst was prepared using carbon tetrachloride and polyaniline as precursors. The obtained powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray ...
Erosion behaviour of API X100 pipeline steel at various impact angles and particle speeds
(
MDPI AG
, 2016 , Article)
Erosion is the gradual removal of material due to solid particle impingement and results in a failure of pipeline materials. In this study, a series of erosion tests were carried out to investigate the influence of particle ...
An efficient eco advanced oxidation process for phenol mineralization using a 2D/3D nanocomposite photocatalyst and visible light irradiations
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2017 , Article)
Nanocomposites (CNTi) with different mass ratios of carbon nitride (C3N4) and TiO2 nanoparticles were prepared hydrothermally. Different characterization techniques were used including X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis diffuse ...

(2015 , Presentation)
Objectives
Using data collected before the roll out of the Qatar National Health Insurance Scheme, this study explores the role of citizenship as a predictor of general satisfaction with healthcare services and its potential ...
Properties of electrodeposited Ni-B-ZrO2 composite coatings
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2015 , Article)
Ni-B coatings have high hardness and high wear resistance which make them suitable for automotive, aerospace, petrochemical, textile and electronics industries. Further improvement in properties (especially the corrosion ...
Using the Sadakane compressed suffix tree to solve the all-pairs suffix-prefix problem
(
Hindawi
, 2014 , Article)
The all-pairs suffix-prefix matching problem is a basic problem in string processing. It has an application in the de novo genome assembly task, which is one of the major bioinformatics problems. Due to the large size of ...
