This study includes the use of heterogeneous catalyst (CaO) for the production of Jatropha biodiesel through transesterification reaction. The heterogeneous transesterification delivered a yield of 81.6% at 5 wt% catalyst ...
Spray Deposition of PDMS/Candle Soot NPs Composite for Self-Cleaning Superhydrophobic Coating
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2020 , Article)
The preparation of superhydrophobic coating using cheap candle soot nanoparticles (CS NPs) collected from candle flame is a very novel research topic. A less than 30 nm sized candle soot particles are collected by passing ...
Superhydrophobic PVC/SiO2 Coating for Self-Cleaning Application
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2020 , Article)
A lotus leaf like self-cleaning superhydrophobic coating has high demand in industrial applications. Such coatings are prepared by alternative dip and spray deposition techniques. A layer of polyvinyl chloride is applied ...
Superhydrophobic PU Sponge Modified by Hydrophobic Silica NPs-Polystyrene Nanocomposite for Oil-Water Separation
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2020 , Article)
In this study, the hydrophobic silica nanoparticles (NPs) are synthesized by simple sol–gel processing of polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS). The nanocomposite solution is prepared by adding hydrophobic silica NPs in polystyrene ...
