Bentonite-decorated calix [4] arene: A new, promising hybrid material for heavy-metal removal
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
There is global concern about the contamination of ground, river, and tap waters as well as soil contamination with heavy metal ions; these chemical species are known to not degrade and to cause severe health problems if ...
Sensing, Measuring and Modelling the Mechanical Properties of Sandstone
(
Springer-Verlag Wien
, 2018 , Article)
We present a hybrid framework for simulating the strength and dilation characteristics of sandstone. Where possible, the grain-scale properties of sandstone are evaluated experimentally in detail. Also, using photo-stress ...
Comparison of the effect of carbon, halloysite and titania nanotubes on the mechanical and thermal properties of LDPE based nanocomposite films
(
Chemical Industry Press
, 2018 , Article)
In this study, titania nanotubes (TNTs) were prepared by hydrothermal method with the aim to compare the properties of these one-dimensional tubular nanostructures' reinforced nanocomposites with the carbon and halloysite ...
Surface engineering of the PLA films for fabricating dexterous humidity sensors
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2018 , Article)
This study presents the surface engineering of the thin films of a biodegradable polymer, poly lactic acid (PLA), for its application in moisture/humidity sensors. The PLA films were deposited on the comb-like pre-patterned ...
Effect of corona treatment on adhesion enhancement of LLDPE
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Polymers/metal laminates are often used to improve physical and mechanical properties, especially those required in building applications. A flat aluminum composite panel (ACP) consisted mainly of two thin metal sheets ...
Extreme fast charging characteristics of zirconia modified LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 cathode for lithium ion batteries
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 is a promising high-voltage cathode for lithium-ion battery fast charging applications. Aware of its electrochemical stability issues, the material's surface is modified with small amounts of zirconia (ZrO2) ...
Binding energy, structural, and dielectric properties of thin film of poly(aniline-co-m-fluoroaniline)
(
Institute for Ionics

Semi-transparent and conducting thin film of poly(aniline-co-m-fluoroaniline) has been synthesized by a conventional oxidative copolymerization method using an aqueous solution of aniline, m-fluoroanilne as the monomers ...
Controlling the sensing performance of rGO filled PVDF nanocomposite with the addition of secondary nanofillers
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
This study reports the synthesis and characterization of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanocomposites containing binary filler combination of reduced graphene oxide and titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes. The PVDF nanocomposite ...
Magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) for chromatographic separation of carbamates.
(
Wiley
, 2018 , Article)
Magnetic solid phase extraction particles (MSPE) were produced using magnetite nanoparticles with diameters between 9 and 13 nm as nucleating agent. The produced particles with magnetite cores were smaller, and more irregular ...
