Insights into Tris-(2-Hydroxylethyl)methylammonium Methylsulfate Aqueous Solutions
(
WILEY-VCH Verlag
, 2012 , Article)
We report herein a combined experimental–computational study on tris-(2-hydroxylethyl)methylammonium methylsulfate in water solutions, as a representative ionic liquid of the aqueous-solution behavior of hydroxylammonium-based ...
Date palm wood flour/glass fibre reinforced hybrid composites of recycled polypropylene: Mechanical and thermal properties
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2012 , Article)
Recycled polypropylene (RPP) based hybrid composites of date palm wood flour/glass fibre were prepared by different weight ratios of the two reinforcements. Mixing process was carried out in an extruder and samples were ...
Enhancing student learning in chemical engineering design via role play and enquiry guided learning: A case study from Qatar
(2012 , Conference Paper)
Plant design is the capstone design course taken in the senior year of a chemical engineering students at Qatar University and is spread over two semesters (Plant Design I and Plant Design II). The course content, delivery ...
Phenol degradation by powdered metal ion modified titanium dioxide photocatalysts
(2012 , Article)
Conventional water purification and disinfection generally involve potentially hazardous substances, some of which known to be carcinogenic in nature. Titanium dioxide photocatalytic processes provide an effective route ...
Nanofeatures of resorcinol-formaldehyde carbon microspheres
(
Elsevier
, 2012 , Article)
Resorcinol-formaldehyde activated carbon xerogels were synthesized at certain conditions, and their morphology was studied experimentally to examine their detailed nature on the nanoscale level, which has not been reported ...
Collective osmotic shock in ordered materials
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2012 , Article)
Osmotic shock in a vesicle or cell is the stress build-up and subsequent rupture of the phospholipid membrane that occurs when a relatively high concentration of salt is unable to cross the membrane and instead an inflow ...
