Vertical orientation of solvent cast nanofilled PS-b-PEO block copolymer thin films at high nanoparticle loading
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
We demonstrate selective dispersion of photosensitive electron acceptor phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) in cylinder forming polystyrene-b-poly (ethylene oxide) (PS-b-PEO) block copolymer (BCP). Neat PS-b-PEO ...
Precise fabrication of porous one-dimensional gC3N4 nanotubes doped with Pd and Cu atoms for efficient CO oxidation and CO2 reduction
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Rational design of graphitic carbon nitride nanostructures (gC3N4) is vital for various catalytic applications. Herein, we synthesized porous gC3N4 nanotubes (gC3N4NTs) doped with Pd and Cu (Pd/Cu/gC3N4NTs) via the consecutive ...
Embodied water for urban economy: A three-scale input-output analysis for Beijing 2010
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
The scheme of a three-scale input-output analysis is presented in this study to investigate the water use profile of the urban economy in Beijing. Defined as total water including direct and indirect water, embodied water ...
Effect of corona treatment on adhesion enhancement of LLDPE
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Polymers/metal laminates are often used to improve physical and mechanical properties, especially those required in building applications. A flat aluminum composite panel (ACP) consisted mainly of two thin metal sheets ...
Nostalgic diaspora or diasporic nostalgia? Discursive and identity constructions of Greeks in Qatar
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
This paper deals with the discursive constructions of transformative, agentive and creative ethnolinguistic self-conceptualizations and positionings of some select members of the approximately 3000-member Greek diasporic ...
Rational one-pot synthesis of ternary PtIrCu nanocrystals as robust electrocatalyst for methanol oxidation reaction
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
Development of self-assembled nanoarchitectures of tailored morphology and composition for diversified applications have received great interest in the last decades. Pt-based nanocrystals (NCs) exhibited enhanced catalytic ...
Graphene Oxide (GO) Based Coated Geopolymeric Membrane for Concentrating Orange Juice through Forward Osmosis
(
Bellwether Publishing, Ltd.
, 2020 , Article)
Dewatering of fruit juice through forward osmosis (FO) has attracted great attention in recent years; however, its application for fruit juice concentration through FO is limited due to high fouling rate, low flux, and ...
Metal-Organic Material Polymer Coatings for Enhanced Gas Sorption Performance and Hydrolytic Stability under Humid Conditions
(
American Chemical Society
, 2020 , Article)
Physisorbent metal-organic materials (MOMs) have shown benchmark performance for highly selective CO2 capture from bulk and trace gas mixtures. However, gas stream moisture can be detrimental to both adsorbent performance ...
Doping amino acids with classical gas hydrate inhibitors to facilitate the hydrate inhibition effect at low dosages
(
Blackwell Publishing Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
The formation of gas hydrates in offshore subsea lines is a major flow assurance concern for the oil and gas industry. In this work, the thermodynamic hydrate inhibition (THI) effect of doping amino acids (AA) such as ...
Activated carbon-doped polystyrene fibers for direct contact membrane desalination
(
Springer Nature
, 2020 , Article)
Membranes for direct contact membrane distillation were produced from electrospun polystyrene microfibers doped with activated carbon. The addition of activated carbon reduced the hydrophobicity of the fibers. Therefore, ...
