A review of the features and applications of ZIF-8 and its derivatives for separating CO2 and isomers of C3- and C4- hydrocarbons
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article Review)Metal organic framework (MOF) membranes have gained more attentions due to their abilities in various applications in gas and liquid separations. The majority of works are related to Zeolite imidazolate frameworks-8 (ZIF-8). ... -
Assessment of CexZryHfzO2 based oxides as potential solar thermochemical CO2 splitting materials
( Elsevier Ltd , 2016 , Article)In this paper, we report the synthesis, characterization, and assessment of CexZryHfzO2 (CZH) materials for solar thermochemical splitting of CO2 in up to 20 consecutive thermochemical cycles. CZH materials with different ... -
Carbon Nanoparticles-Decorated Carbon Nanotubes
( Nature Research , 2020 , Article)© 2020, The Author(s). Multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were decorated by activated carbon nanoparticles of resorcinol-formaldehyde aerogels. Carbon nanospheres and MWCNTs were mixed by equal mass ratios for different ... -
Emulsion stability and cross-linking of PMMA microcapsules containing phase change materials
( Elsevier , 2015 , Article)The microencapsulation of paraffin as a phase change material (PCM) using poly methyl methacrylate (PMM) as a shell was investigated by means of suspension polymerization. The increase in the emulsion stability by using ... -
High performance CO2 filtration and sequestration by using bromomethyl benzene linked microporous networks
( Royal Society of Chemistry , 2016 , Article)Porous solid sorbents have been investigated for the last few decades to replace the costly amine solution and explore the most efficient and economical material for CO2 capture and storage. Covalent organic polymers (COPs) ... -
High-pressure CO2/N2 and CO2/CH4 separation using dense polysulfone-supported ionic liquid membranes
( Elsevier B.V. , 2016 , Article)Four ionic liquids (ILs) were blended with polysulfone (PSF) to produce functional dense polymer-supported IL membranes (DPSILMs). The main aim was to investigate the applicability of the DPSILMs in industrial gas processing ... -
Innovative method of metal coating of microcapsules containing phase change materials
( Elsevier Ltd , 2016 , Article)Microencapsulation of phase change materials (PCMs) is needed to prevent PCM leaking during melting. However, the low thermal conductivity of the microcapsules shell limits their applications. To enhance thermal conductivity ... -
Investigation of Ester- and Amide-Linker-Based Porous Organic Polymers for Carbon Dioxide Capture and Separation at Wide Temperatures and Pressures
( American Chemical Society , 2016 , Article)Organic compounds, such as covalent organic framework, metal–organic frameworks, and covalent organic polymers have been under investigation to replace the well-known amine-based solvent sorption technology of CO2 and ... -
New insights on estimating pore size distribution of latex particles: Statistical mechanics approach and modeling
( Elsevier B.V. , 2016 , Article)New statistical mechanics approach for pore size distribution applied in wide the relative pressure range is proposed. The new proposed model was applied to nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms at 77 K onto five ... -
Screening alternatives for producing paraffinic phase change materials for thermal energy storage in buildings
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2017 , Article)Screening alternatives for producing paraffinic phase change materials (PCMs) from natural gas‐based products was investigated. Based on the quality and cost of these PCMs, two sources were identified: (i) hydrogenated ... -
Solar hydrogen production via erbium oxide based thermochemical water splitting cycle
( American Institute of Physics Inc. , 2016 , Article)The erbium oxide based water splitting (Eb-WS) cycle was thermodynamically studied by using the HSC Chemistry software and databases. The first step of the Eb-WS cycle involves thermal reduction of Er2 O3, whereas the ... -
Supercooling elimination of phase change materials (PCMs) microcapsules
( Elsevier , 2015 , Article)Microencapsulated phase change materials (PCM) must not experience any supercooling, otherwise cannot be used in any latent heat applications. In this study Rubitherm®RT58 and1-octadecanol were selected as nucleating agents ... -
Using electric power to synthesize resorcinol-formaldehyde gels with enhanced characteristics
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2020 , Article)A novel electrochemical approach was introduced for crosslinking resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) gels at room temperature without utilizing a catalyst or a buffer. The electrochemically cross-linked gels and their subsequent ...
