Self-healing performance of multifunctional polymeric smart coatings
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Multifunctional nanocomposite coatings were synthesized by reinforcing a polymeric matrix with halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) loaded with corrosion inhibitor (NaNO3) and urea formaldehyde microcapsules (UFMCs) encapsulated ...
New electrospun polystyrene/Al2O3 nanocomposite superhydrophobic coatings; Synthesis, characterization, and application
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
The effect of electrospinning operational parameters on the morphology, surface roughness, and wettability of different compositions of electrospun polystyrene (PS)-aluminum oxide (Al2O3) nanocomposite coatings was ...
Enhanced corrosion protection of Epoxy/ZnO-NiO nanocomposite coatings on steel
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
ZnO-NiO nanocomposite with epoxy coating on mild steel has been fabricated by the sol–gel assisted method. The synthesized sample was used to study corrosion protection. The analysis was performed by electrochemical impedance ...
A simple chemical precipitation of ceria based (Sm doped-CGO) nanocomposite: structural and electrolytic behaviour for LT-SOFCs
(
Springer Nature
, 2020 , Article)
Rare-earth doped metal oxide nanocomposites were become very unique and tend to show abundant performance in all types of fields such as electrochemical, photocatalytic, and biological. Gadolinium and Samarium co-doped ...
Morphology and magnetic properties of the ethylene-co-vinyl acetate/iron nanocomposite films prepared by implantation with Fe6+ ions
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Ethylene-co-vinyl acetate/iron nanocomposite films were fabricated by implantation with multiplecharged ions at different fluencies. The films obtained with ion fluency of 1 × 1017cm−2were used forspecific studies. It was ...
Designing carbon nanotube-based oil absorbing membranes from gamma irradiated and electrospun polystyrene nanocomposites
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Carbon-based materials are outstanding candidates for oil spill clean-ups due to their superhydrophobicity, high surface area, chemical inertness, low density, recyclability, and selectivity. The current work deals with ...
Electrospun highly corrosion-resistant polystyrene–nickel oxide superhydrophobic nanocomposite coating
(
Springer Science and Business Media B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
A key challenge in producing superhydrophobic coatings (SHC) is to tailor the surface morphology on the micro-nanometer scale. In this work, a feasible and straightforward route was employed to manufacture polystyrene/nickel ...
Alginate-halloysite nanocomposite aerogel: Preparation, structure, and oil/water separation applications
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
Environmental remediation using green approaches for addressing various pollution-related issues, especially water pollution, is in high demand. Here, we designed an environmentally friendly, low-cost, and stable sodium ...
Structural and mechanical properties of Al-SiC-ZrO2 nanocomposites fabricated by microwave sintering technique
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
In the present study, Al-SiC-ZrO2 nanocomposites were developed and characterized. Towards this direction, the aluminum (Al) matrix was reinforced with nano-sized silicon carbide (SiC) and zirconium dioxide (ZrO2), and the ...
Probing into the properties of B4C reinforced nickel phosphorus-based nanocomposite coating
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Nickel-based coatings are well known for their good corrosion resistance performance. However, these materials suffer from inferior mechanical properties that limit their wider application. This work investigates the ...
