Evaluation of photothermal conversion performance of shape-stabilized phase change materials using a heat flux evolution curve
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Phase change materials are promising alternatives for solar energy harvesting by photothermal conversion and thermal energy storage. In this work, a shape-stabilized phase change material (PCM) was prepared by hot-melt ...
Investigation and performance analysis of solar still with energy storage materials: An energy- exergy efficiency analysis
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2022 , Article)
Researchers have attempted different Energy storage materials (ESM) in solar stills (SS) to improve distillate yield. In this experimental work, an attempt was made to increase the distillate yield & efficiency of SS, using ...
A review on recent advances in CO2 separation using zeolite and zeolite-like materials as adsorbents and fillers in mixed matrix membranes (MMMs)
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Anthropogenic emissions have developed the environmental demands for proficient carbon dioxide (CO2) separation technologies. Adsorption and membrane technologies are widely used to separate CO2 from other light gases due ...
Improved self-healing performance of polymeric nanocomposites reinforced with talc nanoparticles (TNPs) and urea-formaldehyde microcapsules (UFMCs)
(

, 2021 , Article)
The present work reports the self-healing performance of the epoxy based polymeric nanocomposite coatings containing different concentrations (1 and 3 wt%) of talc nanoparticles (TNPs) modified with sodium nitrate (NaNO3), ...
The separation of oil/water mixtures by modified melamine and polyurethane foams: A review
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article Review)
Melamine (MA) and polyurethane (PU) foams, including both commercial sponges for daily use as well as newly synthesized foams are known for their high sorption ability of both polar and unipolar liquids. From this reason, ...
Mesoporous silica filled smart super oleophilic fibers of triblock copolymer nanocomposites for oil absorption applications
(
Springer Nature
, 2020 , Article)
Super oleophilic fibers of styrene-isoprene-styrene (SIS) block copolymer/mesoporous silica (MS) nanocomposites are fabricated by electrospinning, and their oil absorption efficiency is monitored by following two different ...
Review of Progress and Prospects in Research on Enzymatic and Non- Enzymatic Biofuel Cells; Specific Emphasis on 2D Nanomaterials
