Production of sensitive gas sensors using CuO/SnO2 nanoparticles
(
Springer Verlag
, 2019 , Article)
Metal oxide nanoparticles, such as CuO and SnO2, are outstanding systems for H2S gas sensing in air. In this work, those nanoparticles were deposited with different mixing percentages on substrates to form percolating ...
Polyzwitterionic Hydrogels in Engines Based on the Antipolyelectrolyte Effect and Driven by the Salinity Gradient
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
In this paper, we propose and investigate an original approach to energy conversion based on polyzwitterionic hydrogels, which exhibit an antipolyelectrolyte effect that enables them to swell in salt water and shrink in ...
CMV reduction in a three-to-seven phase direct matrix converter using SVPWM
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2019 , Article)
The pulse-width modulation (PWM)-controlled modern electric drives causes some serious problems such as the generation of common-mode voltage (CMV) and high dv/dt. The CMV might cause high-frequency leakage currents that ...
Improved photocatalytic decomposition of methyl ethyl ketone gas from indoor air environment by using TiO2/graphene oxide
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2019 , Article)
This study investigates the potential application of synthesized TiO2-graphene (Ti/GO) for the decomposition of methyl ethyl ketone (MEKT) in an indoor air environment. XRD and UV-vis studies on the materials confirmed ...
