Anti-microbial Activity Of Graphene Oxide Against Bacteria And Fungi
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Graphene Oxide (GO) is a promising material for various applications. The team prepared GO from graphite and studied the interaction with different microorganisms. Anti-microbial properties were detected for the prepared ...
Promising And Anomalous Structural And Electrochemical Properties Of Polyanionic Phosphates In Sodium Ion Batteries
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This work presents a recent progress on the polyanionic phosphate family that functions as cathode materials in sodium ion batteries (SIBs). Firstly, this study will cover vanadium-containing frameworks that show very ...
Evaluation Techniques for the Corrosion Resistance of Self-Healing Coatings
(
ESG
, 2014 , Article)
Self-healing coatings, materials that autonomically repair damage, are a method of extending the life of corrosion prevention coatings. The different types of self-healing coatings are briefly outlined. A review of the ...

Polyaniline/polyvinyl alcohol blends: Effect of sulfonic acid dopants on microstructural, optical, thermal and electrical properties
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
This correspondence reports the preparation and performance of different polyaniline–polyvinyl blends (PANI–PVA) doped with sulfonated acids. PANI is prepared by in situ dispersion polymerisation, and a subsequent extensive ...
Thermal characterization of polymer matrix composites containing microencapsulated paraffin in solid or liquid state
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
This work focuses on the study of heat transfer mechanisms in composites materials which may be used for Latent Heat Thermal Energy Storage applications. These composites contain phase change material (PCM) which can absorb ...
Achieve high ductility and strength in an Al-Mg alloy by severe plastic deformation combined with inter-pass annealing
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
Metallic materials processed by severe plastic deformation generally possess very high strength but a rather low uniform elongation, usually <5%. In the present Al-7Mg alloy processed by room temperature equal channel ...
Influence of surface modification of carbon nanotubes on interactions with polystyrene-b-polyisoprene-b-polystyrene matrix and its photo-actuation properties
(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
, 2014 , Article)
The influence of various surface modification of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) on preferential interactions with individual phases of the linear triblock copolymer polystyrene-b-polyisoprene-b-polystyrene (SIS) and ...
Electrodeposition of liquid metals from molten salts
(
Electrochemical Society Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Many important metals are being produced by electrolysis in molten salts (aluminium, sodium, rare earths and other reactive metals). Also industrial electrorefining of aluminium takes place in a molten salt electrolyte. ...
Thermal and mechanical characterization of injection moulded high density polyethylene/paraffin wax blends as phase change materials
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Thermal and mechanical properties of blends based on high density polyethylene and paraffin wax were investigated. The blends were prepared from 5 to 50vol. % of paraffin wax employing a twin-screw extruder. Thermal behaviour ...
