Study of performance, combustion, and emissions parameters of DI-diesel engine fueled with algae biodiesel/diesel/n-pentane blends
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Biodiesel extracted from Scenedesmus obliquus algae through transesterification was used in the current study. Due to the disadvantages of using pure biodiesel in engines, it was used as B50 (a blend of 50% diesel and 50% ...

Superhydrophobic coatings have a huge impact in various applications due to their extreme water-repellent properties. The main novelty of the current research work lies in the development of cheap, stable, superhydrophobic ...
Investigation on evacuated tubes coupled solar still with condenser and fins: Experimental, exergo-economic and exergo-environment analysis
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
The present experimental work was done to check the performance enhancement in distillate productivity between CSS and MSS in climatic conditions of Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India (23.21° N, 72.63° E). In modified solar still ...
Influence of lean premixed ratio of PCCI-DI engine fueled by diesel/biodiesel blends on combustion, performance, and emission attributes; a comparison study
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
The traditional combustion mode which utilized in the DI diesel engine has high and excessive emissions so the most wanted combustion is creating new modes which produce low combustion temperatures and low emissions. The ...
Progress of Advanced Nanomaterials in the Non-Enzymatic Electrochemical Sensing of Glucose and H2O2
(
NLM (Medline)
, 2020 , Article Review)
Non-enzymatic sensing has been in the research limelight, and most sensors based on nanomaterials are designed to detect single analytes. The simultaneous detection of analytes that together exist in biological organisms ...
Nicotinamide-based supergelator self-assembling via asymmetric hydrogen bonding NH OC and H Br pattern for reusable, moldable and self-healable nontoxic fuel gels
(
Academic Press Inc.
, 2021 , Article)
Hypothesis
Development of highly efficient low-molecular weight gelators (LMWGs) for safe energy storage materials is of great demand. Energy storage materials as fuel gels are often achieved by construction of hybrid ...
Plasticizer enhancement on the miscibility and thermomechanical properties of polylactic acid-chitin-starch composites
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
In previous research, a polylactic chitin starch composite was prepared without the use of a solvent to enhance the miscibility. In this study, a polylactic acid (PLA) chitin starch composite was produced with chloroform ...
Advance research progresses in aluminium matrix composites: manufacturing & applications

(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
In this work, advanced polymer nanocomposites comprising of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)
and nanodiamonds (NDs) were developed using a single-step solution-casting method. The proper ties of the prepared PVA/NDs nanocomposites ...
Methanol Electrolysis for Hydrogen Production Using Polymer Electrolyte Membrane: A Mini-Review
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article Review)
Hydrogen (H2) has attained significant benefits as an energy carrier due to its gross calorific value (GCV) and inherently clean operation. Thus, hydrogen as a fuel can lead to global sustainability. Conventional H2 ...
