Effect of filler size on thermophysical and electrical behavior of nanocomposites based on expanded graphite nanoparticles filled in low-density polyethylene matrix
(2013 , Article)
Various aspects of electrical and thermophysical properties of nanocomposites based on low-density polyethylene matrix filled with nanostructuralized expanded graphite (EG) and standard, microsized graphite are presented ...
The Dual Role of Paramagnetic Particles for Integrated Lysis and Measurement in a Rapid Immunoassay for Intracellular Proteins
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Article)
Abstract—A novel, integrated lysis and immunoassay method-
ology and system for intracellular protein measurement are de-
scribed. The method uses paramagnetic particles both as a lysis
agent and assay label resulting ...
Photo-oxidative enhancement of polymeric molecular sieve membranes
(
Nature Research
, 2013 , Article)
High-performance membranes are attractive for molecular-level separations in industrial-scale chemical, energy and environmental processes. The next-generation membranes for these processes are based on molecular sieving ...
Microstructure, thermal and mechanical response of AZ51/Al2O3 nanocomposite with 2 wt.% Ca addition
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2013 , Article)
In the present study, new AZ51/Al2O3–2Ca magnesium nanocomposite was successfully synthesized by simultaneously adding 2wt.% aluminum, 2wt.% Ca and 1.5vol.% nanosized Al2O3 (50nm) into AZ31 matrix using a disintegrated ...

, 2013 , Article)
The primary objective of this paper is to examine the factors which
affect the segmental disclosures (mandatory and voluntary) provided by
Jordanian listed companies. In addition, the study documents evidence about
the ...
Performance analysis of selective cooperation in amplify-and-forward relay networks over identical Nakagami-m channels
(
Wiley Online Library
, 2013 , Article)
In cooperative communications, multiple relays between a source and a destination can increase the diversity gain. Because all the nodes must use orthogonal channels, multiple-relay cooperation becomes spectrally inefficient. ...
Chemical composition and evaluation of antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of Tunisian Thymelaea hirsuta with special reference to its mode of action
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2013 , Article)
In the present study, we evaluated in vitro antimicrobial and antioxidant properties of Thymelaea hirsuta extracts as well as its phytochemical composition. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents were highest in acetone and ...

(
Taylor & Francis
, 2013 , Article)
Qatar is in the midst of a massive educational reform, Education for a New Era. Influence
by neoliberalism, one principle of the reform is the development of a standards-based
system including the adoption of the Qatar ...
In situ XAS and FTIR studies of a multi-component Ni/Fe/Cu catalyst for hydrogen production from ethanol
(2013 , Article)
Multicomponent catalysts containing Ni, Fe, Cu active for ethanol reforming reactions, prepared by solution combustion synthesis are characterized by multiple techniques such as ex situ XRD, XPS, and in situ XAFS and FTIR. ...
