Mechanical and Electromagnetic Properties of Self-Compacted Geopolymer Concretes With Nano Silica and Steel Fiber Additives
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE)
, 2022 , Article)
Mechanical and electromagnetic properties (over 2-16 GHz) of self-compacted geopolymer concrete (SCGC) samples with different amounts of nanosilica (NS) and steel-fiber (SF) have been examined. From the mechanical tests, ...
Effect of bond enhancement using carbon nanotubes on flexural behavior of RC beams strengthened with externally bonded CFRP sheets
(
Springer Nature
, 2022 , Article)
This paper studied the effect of incorporation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) on strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams. The RC beams were prepared, strengthened in flexure ...
Vapour-Phase Selective Hydrogenation of γ-Valerolactone to 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran Biofuel over Silica-Supported Copper Catalysts
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
2-Methyltetrahydrofuran (MTHF) is a desirable biomass-based platform chemical with excellent potential as an ideal biofuel, green solvent, and raw material for synthesizing downstream chemicals. In this work, a series of ...
Novel Slippery Liquid-Infused Porous Surfaces (SLIPS) Based on Electrospun Polydimethylsiloxane/Polystyrene Fibrous Structures Infused with Natural Blackseed Oil
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Hydrophobic fibrous slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) were fabricated by electrospinning polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and polystyrene (PS) as a carrier polymer on plasmatreated polyethylene (PE) and polyurethane ...
Heterogeneous Catalysts for Conversion of Biodiesel-Waste Glycerol into High-Added-Value Chemicals
