Delivery of anticancer molecules using carbon nanotubes
( Springer International Publishing , 2016 , Book chapter)Since their discovery in 1991, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have emerged as material structures with numerous potential applications with a number of products already in the market place. An exciting application, which is ... -
In situ electron microscopy of Braille microsystems: Photoactuation of ethylene vinyl acetate/carbon nanotube composites
( Institute of Physics Publishing , 2015 , Article)The development of new types of tactile displays based on the actuation of composite materials can aid the visually impaired. Micro/nano systems based on ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) polymeric matrices enriched with ... -
Nonlinear free and forced vibrations of graphene nanoplatelet reinforced microbeams with geometrical imperfection
( Springer Verlag , 2019 , Article)Nonlinear free/forced vibration of a functionally graded graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) reinforced microbeam having geometrical imperfection which is rested on a non-linear elastic substrate have been studied in the present ... -
Strength optimisation of mortar with CNTs and nanoclays
( Thomas Telford Services Ltd , 2016 , Article)This study explores the use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and nanoclays in cement mortars. The paper presents modelling and optimisation of the compressive and flexural strengths of cement mortars containing CNTs and the ... -
Surfactant-templating strategy for ultrathin mesoporous TiO2 coating on flexible graphitized carbon supports for high-performance lithium-ion battery
( Elsevier Ltd , 2016 , Article)The electrochemical performance of nanocomposites could greatly be improved by rationally designing flexible core-shell heterostructures. Typically, the uniform coating of a thin mesoporous crystalline transition metal ...
