A review of advances in the preparation and application of polyaniline based thermoset blends and composites
(
Springer
, 2020 , Article Review)
For several decades, forming blend and composite of polyaniline (PANI) with insulating polymers has been a widely studied research area because of the potential applications of such blends, which have a unique combination ...
Industrial waste utilization of carbon dust in sustainable cementitious composites production
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2020 , Article)
This paper experimentally investigates the effect of utilization of carbon dust generated as an industrial waste from aluminum factories in cementitious composites production. Carbon dust is collected, characterized, and ...
Ultrasensitive Ti3C2TX MXene/chitosan nanocomposite-based amperometric biosensor for detection of potential prostate cancer marker in urine samples
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
Two-dimensional layered nanomaterial Ti3C2TX (a member of the MXene family) was used to immobilise enzyme sarcosine oxidase to fabricate a nanostructured biosensor. The device was applied for detection of sarcosine, a ...
The role of polypropylene microfibers in thermal properties and post-heating behavior of cementitious composites
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2020 , Article)
This paper experimentally studied the effect of polypropylene (PP) microfibers on thermal and post-heating mechanical behaviors of cementitious composites. Cement mortars with small dosage of polypropylene fibers were ...
Chitosan/lignosulfonate nanospheres as "green" biocide for controlling the microbiologically influenced corrosion of carbon steel
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
In this work, uniform cross-linked chitosan/lignosulfonate (CS/LS) nanospheres with an average diameter of 150-200 nm have been successfully used as a novel, environmentally friendly biocide for the inhibition of mixed ...
Synthesis and performance evaluation of Na(2-x)LixFeP2O7 (x=0, 0.6) hybrid cathodes
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2020 , Article)
This study reports hybrid cathodes formation by cation substitution in which Li+ substitution has been considered for Na+ in the structure of Na(2-x)LixFeP2O7 (x=0, 0.6) to form Na1.4Li0.6FeP2O7 cathodes. Na(2-x)LixFeP2O7 ...
Rational synthesis, characterization, and application of environmentally friendly (polymer–carbon dot) hybrid composite film for fast and efficient UV-assisted Cd2+ removal from water
(
Springer
, 2020 , Article)
Background: Carbon dots (CDs) are of particular interest in numerous applications. However, their efficiency for heavy metal removal from wastewater was not yet reported. Herein, we rationally synthesized CDs from petroleum ...
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 ...
Modeling and piezoelectric analysis of nano energy harvesters
(
MDPI
, 2020 , Article)
The expedient way for the development of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) based devices are based on two key steps. First, perform the simulation for the optimization of various parameters by using different simulation ...
Design of a semiconductor photoelectrochemical cells using orange dye and NaCl aqueous solutions
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
This paper describes a new design of the semitransparent photo-electrochemical cells using the orange dye (C17H17N5O2) and NaCl aqueous solutions. In the proposed design, the semi-transparency is realized by fabrication ...
