Melt processing and properties of linear low density polyethylene-graphene nanoplatelet composites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Composites of Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) and Graphene Nanoplatelets (GNPs) were processed using a twin screw extruder under different extrusion conditions. The effects of screw speed, feeder speed and GNP ...
Improvement of ternary recycled polymer blend reinforced with date palm fibre
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
This paper investigates the study and preparation of date palm fibre reinforced recycled polymer blend composites. This is the first paper which describes the recycled polymer ternary blends of (1) recycled low density ...
Microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of twinned AZ31 alloy plates at lower elevated temperature
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
The AZ31 alloy plates were pre-rolled at room temperature along the transverse direction to introduce extension twinning. The effect of pre-existing twins on the mechanical properties of AZ31 alloy plates at lower elevated ...
Multi-component MWCNT/NG/EP-based bipolar plates with enhanced mechanical and electrical characteristics fabricated by compression moulding
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
In this work, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), natural graphite (NG) and epoxy (EP) were used to fabricate bipolar plates by the compression moulding technique. The mechanical and thermal behaviours of the as-developed ...
Enhancing thermal and mechanical response of aluminum using nanolength scale TiC ceramic reinforcement
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
the present work, nano-sized titanium carbide (0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 vol%) reinforced aluminum (Al) metal matrix composites were synthesized by powder metallurgy incorporating microwave sintering and hot extrusion. Microstructural, ...
Effect of microwave sintering on the properties of copper oxide doped Y-TZP ceramics
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
The effect of various amounts of copper oxide (CuO) up to 1 wt% on the densification behaviour and mechanical properties of 3 mol% yttria-tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) were studied by using microwave (MW) sintering ...
Effect of hot extrusion and T6 heat treatment on microstructure and mechanical properties of Al-10Zn-3.5Mg-2.5Cu nanocomposite reinforced with graphene nanoplatelets
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Al-10Zn-3.5Mg-2.5Cu/graphene nanocomposites were developed by a combination of liquid metallurgy and hot extrusion techniques. The effect of varying graphene content (0.1%, 0.3%, 0.7% and 1.0%) on microstructure and ...
Grain refining and improving mechanical properties of a warm rolled AZ31 alloy plate
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
The mechanical properties of an AZ31 magnesium alloy were improved after warm rolling. The study involved a pre-rolling condition in which the material consisted of twins, playing a key role in recrystallization grain ...
Calorimetric and dynamic mechanical behavior of phase change materials based on paraffin wax supported by expanded graphite
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
This study addressed the characterization and description of calorimetric and dynamic mechanical properties of phase change materials (PCMs) based on linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), paraffin wax (W) and expanded ...
Influence of TiO2 nanoparticles incorporation to friction stir welded 5083 aluminum alloy on the microstructure, mechanical properties and wear resistance
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
The aim of the current study is to investigate the effect of addition of TiO2 nanoparticles and friction stir welding (FSW) parameter such as number of passes on microstructure, mechanical and tribological properties of ...
