(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
In the present study, Al-SiC-ZrO2 nanocomposites were developed and characterized. Towards this direction, the aluminum (Al) matrix was reinforced with nano-sized silicon carbide (SiC) and zirconium dioxide (ZrO2), and the ...
Improving mechanical, thermal and damping properties of niti (Nitinol) reinforced aluminum nanocomposites
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
In the present study, Ni50Ti50 (NiTi) particle reinforced aluminum nanocomposites were fabricated using microwave sintering and subsequently hot extrusion. The effect of NiTi (0, 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 vol %) content on the ...
Influence of graphene wrapped-cerium oxide coating on spherical LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 particles as cathode in high-voltage lithium-ion batteries
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2022 , Article)
Cobalt-free LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (Lithium Nickel Manganese Oxide; LNMO) has garnered considerable interest as a cathode material due to its high working voltage, lower cost, and environmental friendliness. However, LNMO cathodes ...
Study of microstructural and mechanical properties of al/sic/tio2 hybrid nanocomposites developed by microwave sintering
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Aluminum hybrid metal matrix nanocomposites (Al/SiC/TiO2) were synthesized through a microwave-assisted powder metallurgy process, and their evolved microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated. The Al/SiC/TiO2 ...
Effect of silicon nitride and graphene nanoplatelets on the properties of aluminum metal matrix composites
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
This research work aims at investigating the influence of a fixed content of silicon nitride (Si3N4) and varied contents of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) on the physical (density, structural, morphological) and mechanical ...
Hybrid Halloysite Nanotubes as Smart Carriers for Corrosion Protection
(
American Chemical Society
, 2020 , Article)
Novel hybrid halloysite nanotubes (HHNTs) were developed and used as smart carriers for corrosion protection of steel. For this purpose, as-received halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) were loaded with a corrosion inhibitor, ...
Study on the corrosion behavior of polymeric nanocomposite coatings containing halloysite nanotubes loaded with multicomponent inhibitor
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
In the present study, the halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) were loaded with a multicomponent inhibitor (LHNT) comprising mainly benzotriazole (BTA), sodium benzoate (SB), and lauric acid (LA) via the vacuum cycling method. The ...
