Nanoscale studies of the early stages of scale formation in sour environments
(
one petro
, 2018 , Article)
The corrosion of carbon steel in environments containing hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a critical issue to the oil and gas industry. Although considerable research efforts have been carried out, there is not yet a complete ...
Light-controllable viscoelastic properties of a photolabile carboxybetaine ester-based polymer with mucus and cellulose sulfate
(
Springer Nature
, 2018 , Article)
In this study, the interaction of a photoswitchable carboxybetaine ester-based polymer with mucus and cellulose sulfate was elucidated, showing light-controllable viscoelastic properties. This polymer contains photolabile ...
Photochemical grafting of polysulfobetaine onto polyethylene and polystyrene surfaces and investigation of long-term stability of the polysulfobetaine layer in seawater
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and polystyrene (PS) films with hydrophilic surface were prepared by photochemical grafting of sulfobetaine-based copolymer containing photolabile moiety, and long-term stability of the ...
Advanced antifouling zwitterionic layer based impedimetric HER2 biosensing in human serum: Glycoprofiling as a novel approach for breast cancer diagnostics
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
There are two key novel components presented here behind identification of potential novel breast cancer (BCa) diagnostic approach: 1. application of photoimmobilizable zwitterionic hydrogels resisting non-specific protein ...
Influence of relative humidity on the electrical response of PEDOT:PSS based organic field-effect transistor
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
We have investigated the influence of relative humidity on the electrical response of a bottom gate organic field-effect transistor (OFET) with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(4-styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) as an ...
Indentation and bending behavior of electroless Ni-P-Ti composite coatings on pipeline steel
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Electroless Ni-P coatings have been adopted in many industrial applications due to their excellent wear and corrosion resistance. The unique properties and autocatalytic nature suggest a potential usage as a pipeline inner ...

(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
The present paper reports the dependence of wear behavior on sintering mechanism for iron (Fe) alumina (Al2O3) metal matrix nanocomposites fabricated via Powder Metallurgy (P/M) technique. Nanocomposite composition was ...
Non-enzymatic biosensing of glucose based on silver nanoparticles synthesized from Ocimum tenuiflorum leaf extract and silver nitrate
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
An enzyme-free glucose sensor developed based on silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) via bio-mediated route using Ocimum tenuiflorum leaves extract. The Ag NPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible ...
Bentonite-decorated calix [4] arene: A new, promising hybrid material for heavy-metal removal
(
Elsevier
, 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 ...
