A comparative study on long term stability of self-healing epoxy coating with different inorganic nanotubes as healing agent reservoirs
(
BME-PT and GTE
, 2017 , Article)
Self-healing epoxy coatings were prepared with different nanotubes as reservoirs for epoxy monomer (healing agent). The nanotubes selected for the current study were TiO2 nanotubes with two different tube diameter (TNT1 ...
Solvent Uptake of Liquid Rubber Toughened Epoxy/Clay Nanocomposites
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Carboxyl-terminated poly (butadiene-co-acrylonitrile) (CTBN) liquid rubber toughened epoxy (epoxy/CTBN blend) and CTBN-toughened epoxy/clay nanocomposites (epoxy/clay/CTBN nanocomposites) were prepared, and solvent (acetone) ...
2D Ti3C2Tx (MXene)-reinforced polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibers with enhanced mechanical and electrical properties
(
Public Library of Science
, 2017 , Article)
Novel 2D Ti3C2Tx (MXene)-reinforced polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibers have been successfully fabricated by an electrospinning technique. The high aspect ratio, hydrophilic surfaces, and metallic conductivity of delaminated ...
Carbon/nitrogen-doped TiO2: New synthesis route, characterization and application for phenol degradation
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Porous nanocrystalline carbon and nitrogen (CN)-doped TiO2 photocatalyst was prepared using carbon tetrachloride and polyaniline as precursors. The obtained powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray ...
Erosion behaviour of API X100 pipeline steel at various impact angles and particle speeds
(
MDPI AG
, 2016 , Article)
Erosion is the gradual removal of material due to solid particle impingement and results in a failure of pipeline materials. In this study, a series of erosion tests were carried out to investigate the influence of particle ...
Identification of Molecular Fluorophore as a Component of Carbon Dots able to Induce Gelation in a Fluorescent Multivalent-Metal-Ion-Free Alginate Hydrogel
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2019 , Article)
We introduce a simple approach to fabricate fluorescent multivalent metal ion-free alginate hydrogels, which can be produced using carbon dots accessible from natural sources (citric acid and L-cysteine). Molecular fluorophore ...
An efficient eco advanced oxidation process for phenol mineralization using a 2D/3D nanocomposite photocatalyst and visible light irradiations
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2017 , Article)
Nanocomposites (CNTi) with different mass ratios of carbon nitride (C3N4) and TiO2 nanoparticles were prepared hydrothermally. Different characterization techniques were used including X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis diffuse ...
Antimicrobial Modification of LDPE Using Non-thermal Plasma
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) represents polymer having good chemical and physical characteristics for which it is widely used in many applications, such as biomedical and food packaging industry. This polymer excels by ...
Cold Plasma as Effective Tool for Aluminum Surface Cleaning
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Aluminum (Al) is heavily used to manufacture structural parts in the aeronautic, railway, automotive or naval industries because of its lightness and its corrosion resistance [1]. One of the most popular uses of Al is in ...
Microstructure and compressive behavior of Al-Y2O3 nanocomposites prepared by microwave-assisted mechanical alloying
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
In this study, Al–Y2O3 nanocomposites were synthesized via mechanical alloying and microwave-assisted sintering. The effect of different levels of yttrium oxide on the microstructural and mechanical properties of the Al–Y2O3 ...
