Thermal characterization of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) based on linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), paraffin wax (W) and expanded graphite (EG) is reported in this paper. Investigated PCMs showed high potential for ...
Structural, morphological and optical properties of PEDOT:PSS/QDs nano-composite films prepared by spin-casting
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
This paper describes the structural, morphological and optical properties of the nano-composite of poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) and quantum dots (QDs). The ZnSe and CdSe QDs have been ...
Influence of temperature on the confinement effects of micro and nano level graphite filled poly(isoprene-co-isobutylene) composites
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2016 , Article)
Electrically conducting elastomer composites using nanocarbon fillers have utmost significance in the current scenario of flexible electronics. Though a large number of reports have come out in this topic, the influence ...
Plasticization and co-crystallization in LLDPE/wax blends.
(
Wiley Periodicals, Inc
, 2016 , Article)
The structure and thermal properties of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/medium soft paraffin wax blends, prepared by melt mixing, were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and small- and wide-angle ...
Enhanced photocatalytic degradation of a phenolic compounds' mixture using a highly efficient TiO2/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
A nanocomposite (namely rGOTi) was prepared by loading 0.33 weight percent of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) on commercial TiO2 nanoparticles using a hydrothermal method. The as-prepared nanocomposite was characterized using ...
The influence of paraffin wax addition on the isothermal crystallization of LLDPE
(
Wiley
, 2016 , Article)
The influence of paraffin wax addition on the isothermal crystallization kinetics of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) was studied in a temperature range where the wax was always in the molten state and could be ...
Improved flexible, controlled dielectric constant material from recycled LDPE polymer composites
(
Springer Nature
, 2016 , Article)
In this study, recycled low density polyethylene (RLDPE) is developed with the addition of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) to have new polymer composites. The following wt% were used of the filler (1, 4 and 6 wt%). Tensile properties, ...
A mixed iron–manganese based pyrophosphate cathode, Na2Fe0.5Mn0.5P2O7, for rechargeable sodium ion batteries
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
