Positron annihilation study on polyaniline nanocomposite used for Pb(II) ion removal
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2016 , Article)
Nanocomposites of polyaniline (PANI) with three different concentrations of micrometre-sized sawdust are prepared in aqueous media via chemical casting method at room temperature. Thereafter, the removal efficiency of the ...
Assessment of microstructural and mechanical properties of hybrid fibrous self-consolidating concretes using ingredients of plastic wastes
(
Technoscience Publications
, 2016 , Article)
This paper focuses on the experimental investigation carried out on self-consolidating concrete (SCC) reinforced with micro-steel fibre and hybrid fibres (combination of micro-steel fibre and recycled high density polyethylene ...
Morphology and properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) filled with mesoporous silica (MCM-41) prepared by melt compounding
(
Springer
, 2016 , Article)
This paper reports on the morphologies of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/mesoporous silica (MCM-41) composites prepared by melt compounding with various MCM-41 contents in the range of 0.1–5 wt%, the interactions between ...
Influence of blending and blend morphology on the thermal properties and crystallization behaviour of PLA and PCL in PLA/PCL blends
(
Springer
, 2016 , Article)
In this paper, we reported on the influence of PCL on the cold crystallization behaviour of PLA in different PLA/PCL blends, and on the influence of blending with PLA on the PCL crystallization behaviour and kinetics. The ...
Effects of microstructures on hydrogen induced cracking of electrochemically hydrogenated double notched tensile sample of 4340 steel
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Quantitative fractographic characteristics of 4340 steel is demonstrated for a grain size range of 10-100 ?m and hardness range of 41-52 HRC. Double-notched tensile samples were electrochemically charged in-situ with ...
Halloysite Nanotube as Multifunctional Component in Epoxy Protective Coating
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
The current research explores the use of halloysite nanotube as a multifunctional filler in epoxy coating for carbon steel. Epoxy monomer loaded halloysite was incorporated into epoxy coating along with amine hardener ...
Comparative study between the rotor flux oriented control and non-linear backstepping control of a five-phase induction motor drive - an experimental validation
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2016 , Article)
Multiphase variable speed electric drives are employed in applications where the reduction in the total power per phase and the highest level of overall system reliability is required. Most of the literature on five-phase ...
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 ...
Reduced graphene oxide filled poly(dimethyl siloxane) based transparent stretchable, and touch-responsive sensors
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
The ongoing revolution in touch panel technology and electronics demands the need for thin films, which are flexible, stretchable, conductive, and highly touch responsive. In this regard, conductive elastomer nanocomposites ...
Synthesis of Ordered Mesoporous Silica with Tunable Morphologies and Pore Sizes via a Nonpolar Solvent-Assisted Stöber Method
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
A facile nonpolar solvent-assisted Stöber method has been developed to synthesize ordered mesoporous silica materials with tunable pore size and diverse morphologies and mesostructures by using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide ...
