A comparison of properties of Ni-B and Ni-B-ZrO2-Al2O3 nanocomposite coatings synthesized through electrodeposition process is presented to elucidate the beneficial role of addition of mixed nanoparticles of ZrO2 and Al2O3 ...

The corrosive nature of fluid (oil and gas) and the presence of solid erodent particles in it causes the pipelines to experience severe erosion and corrosion during the transportation process. In this study, erosion-corrosion ...

Corrosion is a major cause of materials and equipment failure in the oil and gas industry, and its prevention is crucial to ensure reliability of the assets. Towards, this goal, Ni-B/AlN nanocomposite coatings were synthesized ...

In this study, zinc (Zn) and eggshell (ES) reinforced biodegradable magnesium alloy (Mg–2.5Zn) and environment concise (eco) composite (Mg–2.5Zn–xES) was fabricated using disintegrated melt deposition (DMD) technique. In ...

Dispersed water droplets in organic liquids are commonly encountered in the oil, chemical and biochemical industries. A typical example is the separation of dispersed water drops in crude oil, in order to prevent catalyst ...

Spent Pot Lining (SPL) is produced in thousands of tons annually as a waste from the aluminum industry. SPL is classified into two types, 1st and 2nd Cut SPL. The 1st cut, which is the material under investigation in this ...

Phase-change materials are used to store and release energy through phase changes, be it melting and solidification processes or solid state phase transitions. Among a large number of phase-change materials are paraffin ...

This study is concentrated on the preparation of the soft polymeric materials with flexoelectric effect. The flexoelectricity can be defined as reversible process of the electrical energy harvesting upon dynamical mechanical ...

This work presents a recent progress on the polyanionic phosphate family that functions as cathode materials in sodium ion batteries (SIBs). Firstly, this study will cover vanadium-containing frameworks that show very ...

Thermal energy storage systems are crucial for reducing dependency on fossil fuels and minimizing CO2 emissions. The building sector is a major sector responsible for producing high levels of CO2 in most countries (including ...
