Advances in Tailoring Resorcinol-Formaldehyde Organic and Carbon Gels
(
WILEY-VCH Verlag
, 2011 , Article)
An overview on the preparation and properties of resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) organic and carbon gels reveals the fascinating and remarkably flexible properties of RF carbon and organic gels and how these properties are ...
Study on hydroxylammonium-based ionic liquids. II. Computational analysis of CO2 absorption
(
American Chemical Society
, 2011 , Article)
In the previous work of this series, we reported a wide experimental and computational analysis of the properties of hydroxylammonium-based ionic liquids. This family of ionic liquids shows very favorable economical, ...
Study on hydroxylammonium-based ionic liquids. I. Characterization
(
American Chemical Society
, 2011 , Article)
Two selected ammonium-based ionic liquids, 2-hydroxyethyltrimethylammonium l-(+)-lactate and tris(2-hydroxyethyl)methylammonium methylsulfate, were fully characterized. The most relevant thermophysical properties of pure ...
Efficacy of TIO2 doped with copper for water disinfection
(
Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
, 2011 , Book chapter)
This research was conducted to improve titanium dioxide by transition metal doping using cooper. Sol gel method was used to prepare metal doped TIO2. Titanium isopropoxide and commercial TIO2 P25 were employed as catalyst ...
Advanced Polymeric Materials with Exceptional Carbon Dioxide Capture Capacities
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions resulting from combustion of fossil based fuels increasing the atmospheric CO2 concentration (currently at 393 ppm) is indubitably an alarming environmental issue such as an irreversible ...
Impact of synthesis conditions on meso- and macropore structures of resorcinol-formaldehyde xerogels
(
Springer
, 2011 , Article)
Xerogels were prepared by the sol-gel polymerization of resorcinol with formaldehyde at different conditions. The effects of different synthesis factors (namely, resorcinol-to-formaldehyde ratio, resorcinol-to-water ratio, ...
Life cycle assessment of particulate recycled low density polyethylene and recycled polypropylene reinforced with talc and fiberglass
(
Trans Tech Publications Ltd
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Although recycled polymers and reinforced polymer composites have been in use for many years there is little information available on their environmental impacts. The goal of the present study is to analyze the environmental ...
A review on composite materials based on recycled thermoplastics and glass fibres
(2011 , Article Review)
Mechanical properties The purpose of this paper is to review recent work on composite materials based on recycled thermoplastics and glass fibres (GFs). The high collection and separation cost of plastics waste, and the ...
Processing and characterization of palm fiber-polypropylene composites
(
Trans Tech Publications Ltd
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Composites of palm fiber and polypropylene were compounded using a mixing device at various temperatures, mixing times, and mixing intensities. Two mixing options were utilized. Either the mixing device was mounted with a ...
Amidoximes: Promising candidates for CO 2 capture
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2011 , Article)
Monoethanolamine (MEA) dominates power plant carbon dioxide (CO 2) scrubbing processes, though with major disadvantages such as a 8-35% energy penalty. Here we report that structurally comparable amidoximes are promising ...
