Enhancing the UV/heat stability of LLDPE irrigation pipes via different stabilizer formulations
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
Herein different stabilizer formulations of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) against UV- and heat-initiated degradation are described. The project aims at outdoor applications, such as irrigation piping and profiles, ...
Sustainable alkali-activated binders with municipal solid waste incineration ashes as sand or fly ash replacement
(
Springer Nature
, 2022 , Article)
The present study investigates the feasibility of using two types of municipality solid wastes incineration ashes, namely, fly ash and bottom ash in the production of sustainable alkali-activated binder. The ashes are ...
Colorimetry-based detection of nitric oxide from exhaled breath for quantification of oxidative stress in human body
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
Monitoring exhaled breath is a safe, noninvasive method for determining the health status of the human body. Most of the components in our exhaled breath can act as health biomarkers, and they help in providing information ...
Hybrid Halloysite Nanotubes as Smart Carriers for Corrosion Protection
(
American Chemical Society
, 2020 , Article)
Novel hybrid halloysite nanotubes (HHNTs) were developed and used as smart carriers for corrosion protection of steel. For this purpose, as-received halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) were loaded with a corrosion inhibitor, ...
Thermally conductive polyethylene/expanded graphite composites as heat transfer surface: Mechanical, thermo-physical and surface behavior
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
Composites of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and expanded graphite (EG) are prepared for heat exchangers in multi-effect distillation (MED) desalination. At 50 wt.% EG loading, the thermal conductivity of HDPE was increased ...
Self-sanitizing reusable glove via 3D-printing and common mold making method
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
In health care and public health practice, it is critical to settings control practices that are critical to reducing the transmission of infections through cross-contamination. To provide protection from cross-contamination, ...
Self-healing performance of smart polymeric coatings modified with tung oil and linalyl acetate
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
This work focuses on the synthesis and characterization of polymeric smart self-healing coatings. A comparison of structural, thermal, and self-healing properties of two different polymeric coatings comprising distinct ...
Pyrite (FeS2)-supported ultrafiltration system for removal of mercury (II) from water
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
This study investigated the Hg(II) removal efficiencies of the reactive adsorbent membrane (RAM) hybrid filtration process, a removal process that produces stable final residuals. The reaction mechanism between Hg(II) and ...
Comparison study of metal oxides (CeO2, CuO, SnO2, CdO, ZnO and TiO2) decked few layered graphene nanocomposites for Dye-Sensitized solar cells
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
Recent research is focused on few layered graphene (FLG) with various metal oxides (MOs) as (MOs; CeO2, CuO, SnO2, CdO, ZnO, and TiO2) nanocomposite materials are alternatives to critically important in the fabrication of ...
Core-shell nanofibers of polyvinylidene fluoride-based nanocomposites as piezoelectric nanogenerators
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
Flexible piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENG) are widely applied to harvest sustainable energy from multiple energy sources. The rational and simple design of PENG have great potential in soft electronics. Here we design a ...
