A Micelle Fusion-Aggregation Assembly Approach to Mesoporous Carbon Materials with Rich Active Sites for Ultrasensitive Ammonia Sensing
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
Nanostructured carbon materials have received considerable attention due to their special physicochemical properties. Herein, ordered mesoporous carbons (OMCs) with two-dimension (2D) hexagonal mesostructure and unique ...
Rheological evaluation of shortand long-term performance for warm mix asphalt (WMA) binders
(
Kluwer Academic Publishers
, 2016 , Article)
Warm-mix asphalt (WMA) additives are environmentally friendly and cost-effective products that lower the viscosity of bituminous binders to allow reduction of mixing and compaction temperatures in asphalt mix production. ...
Insights into choline chloride-phenylacetic acid deep eutectic solvent for CO2 absorption
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
The properties of choline chloride plus phenylacetic acid deep eutectic solvents in neat liquid state and upon absorption of CO2 are analyzed using a theoretical approach combining quantum chemistry using Density Functional ...
The impact of affordable housing developments on sustainability in gulf cities
(
Open House International Association
, 2016 , Article)
The recent construction boom has led to new urban development dynamics in Gulf cities driven by real-estate speculations and large infrastructure investments. While in the past affordable housing for medium income migrants ...
The role of mega projects in redefining housing development in gulf cities
(
Open House International Association
, 2016 , Article)
Since the end of the 1990s, large-scale mega projects have been initiated in Gulf cities to enable an unprecedented urban growth and the expansion of new economic sectors. In this respect, mega projects have played a key ...
Estimation procedures based on preliminary test in exponential distribution under progressive censoring
(
Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
This paper considers the preliminary test estimator of the unknown parameter of the exponential distribution based on progressively Type-II censored samples. The mean squared error of the proposed estimator is derived and ...
Weak and strong convergence theorems for generalized nonexpansive mappings
(
Universitatii Al.I.Cuza din Iasi
, 2016 , Article)
We consider a class of generalized nonexpansive mappings introduced by Karapinar and seen as a generalization of Suzuki (C)-condition. We prove some weak and strong convergence theorems for approximating fixed points of ...
An Experimental and Kinetic Study of the Sorption of Carbon Dioxide onto Amine-Treated Oil Fly Ash
(
Hindawi Publishing Corporation
, 2016 , Article)
A new CO2 adsorbent is produced from waste oil fly ash (OFA). Ammonium hydroxide solution is used to convert OFA to activated carbon. Then, the product is used for the adsorption of CO2 from a nitrogen/carbon dioxide ...
A mixed iron–manganese based pyrophosphate cathode, Na2Fe0.5Mn0.5P2O7, for rechargeable sodium ion batteries
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
The development of secondary batteries based on abundant and cheap elements is vital. Among various alternatives to conventional lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are promising due to the abundant resources ...
Doubly dual nature of ammonium-based ionic liquids for methane hydrates probed by rocking-rig assembly
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
This work presents a systematic study of methane hydrate inhibition in the presence of five structurally variable ionic liquids (ILs) belonging to the ammonium family—viz., tetra-alkylammonium acetate (TMAA), choline ...
