Sustainable Preparation of Graphene Quantum Dots from Leaves of Date Palm Tree
(
American Chemical Society
, 2023 , Article)
The date palm (Phoenix dactylifera), a subtropical and tropical tree, included in the family Palmae (Arecaceae) is one of the oldest cultivated plants of mankind. Date palm is a major agricultural product in the semi-arid ...
Impact of the Processing-Induced Orientation of Hexagonal Boron Nitride and Graphite on the Thermal Conductivity of Polyethylene Composites
(
MDPI
, 2023 , Article)
Emergent heat transfer and thermal management applications require polymer composites with enhanced thermal conductivity (κ). Composites filled with non-spherical fillers, such as hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and Graphite ...
Effect of Trace 100 vppm H2S on the Corrosion Behaviour of Plain Carbon and Microalloyed Steels in a Predominant Sweet Environment in High Flow Regime
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
We investigate the effects of the presence of trace (100 vppm) H2S on the corrosion behaviour of plain carbon steel and its various micro-alloyed counterparts in a CO2 saturated (sweet) brine (0.5 M NaCl) environment, in ...
Electrodeposition of nanocrystalline Ni-Mo alloys from alkaline glycinate solutions
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2014 , Article)
The induced electrodeposition of nanocrystalline Ni-Mo alloys was investigated using two different molar ratios of Ni:Mo in sodium glycinate solution at pH 9.3. The chemical nature of the Ni2+ and MoO4 2- in alkaline ...
Enhancing the UV/heat stability of LLDPE irrigation pipes via different stabilizer formulations
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
Herein different stabilizer formulations of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) against UV- and heat-initiated degradation are described. The project aims at outdoor applications, such as irrigation piping and profiles, ...
Sustainable alkali-activated binders with municipal solid waste incineration ashes as sand or fly ash replacement
(
Springer Nature
, 2022 , Article)
The present study investigates the feasibility of using two types of municipality solid wastes incineration ashes, namely, fly ash and bottom ash in the production of sustainable alkali-activated binder. The ashes are ...
Effect of waste wax and chain structure on the mechanical and physical properties of polyethylene
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
The influence of adding waste wax, produced as a by-product of the low density polyethylene manufacturing process, on the thermal and mechanical properties of three types of polyethylene (PE), high-density polyethylene ...
Antibacterial Modification Of Polyethylene By Multistage Process Utilizing Low-temperature Plasma
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Limiting factor of PE application in healthcare is high susceptibility of polyethylene towards bacterial growth. For this reason, antibacterial treatment of PE foils using appropriate antibacterial agents was used in this ...
Graphene Based Aerogels: Fundamentals and Applications as Supercapacitors
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2020 , Article Review)
Super Capacitors have attained a huge amount of attention due to their outstanding features and characteristics such as high-power density, excellent charge/discharge routine, and tendency of a longer lifetime. Graphene, ...
Colorimetry-based detection of nitric oxide from exhaled breath for quantification of oxidative stress in human body
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
Monitoring exhaled breath is a safe, noninvasive method for determining the health status of the human body. Most of the components in our exhaled breath can act as health biomarkers, and they help in providing information ...
