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 ...
Thermal and mechanical properties of PP/HDPE/wood powder and MAPP/HDPE/wood powder polymer blend composites.
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
The morphology and properties of blends of PP/HDPE and MAPP/HDPE blends, and their composites with wood
powder, were investigated in this paper. The blends showed two-phase morphologies, and MAPP interacted
better than ...
Mechanical, sorption and adhesive properties of composites based on low density polyethylene filled with date palm wood powder
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Low density polyethylene (LDPE) was blended with date palm wood powder (DPW) to prepare composites with concentrations of filler ranging from 10 to 70. wt.%. The Youn?s modulus of the composites significantly increased ...
Unconventional experimental technologies used for phase change materials (PCM) characterization: Part 2 - Morphological and structural characterization, physico-chemical stability and mechanical properties
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
Due to the high interest of appropriate characterization of PCM and hybrid PCM composites, different research centres and universities are using several material characterization techniques not commonly used with PCM, to ...
Secondary chain motion and mechanical properties of γ-irradiated-regenerated cellulose films
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
Regenerated cellulose films prepared using NaOH/urea solvent system were exposed to different doses of γ-radiation, ranging from 5 to 50 kGy to modify their properties. Change in relative crystallinity as a function of ...
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 ...
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 ...
Structural and mechanical properties of microwave sintered Al-Ni50Ti50 composites
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
Metal matrix composites (MMCs) have become attractive for structural engineering applications due to their excellent specific strength and are becoming an alternative to the conventional materials particularly in the ...
Enhancing compressive, tensile, thermal and damping response of pure Al using BN nanoparticles
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
In the present study, aluminum based metal matrix composites containing various amounts of boron nitride (BN) nanoparticulates (0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 vol.%) were fabricated by using the powder metallurgy (PM) technique ...
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 ...
