    • Adhesion characteristics of solution treated environmental dust 

      Adukwu, Johnny Ebaika; Yilbas, Bekir Sami; Jalilov, Almaz S.; Al-Qahtani, H.; Yaqubu, Mubarak; ... more authors ( Nature Research , 2020 , Article)
      Environmental dust is modified towards self-cleaning applications under the gravitational influence. Dust particles are collected in the local area of Dammam in Saudi Arabia and they are treated with a dilute hydrofluoric ...

    • Avalanche effect for chemically modified dust mitigation from surfaces 

      Adukwu, Johnny Ebaika; Yilbas, Bekir Sami; Jalilov, Almaz; Al-Qahtani, Hussain; Sahin, Ahmet Z.; ... more authors ( Nature Research , 2021 , Article)
      Cost effective dust mitigation from surfaces is one of the challenges in various sectors. The reduction of dust adhesion on surfaces plays a vital role for dust mitigation from surfaces under the gravitational influence. ...

    • Electrochemical removal of pyrite scale using green formulations 

      Ahmed M.; Hussein I.A.; Onawole A.T.; Saad M.A.; Khaled M. ( Nature Research , 2021 , Article)
      Pyrite scale formation is a critical problem in the hydrocarbon production industry; it affects the flow of hydrocarbon within the reservoir and the surface facilities. Treatments with inorganic acids, such as HCl, results ...

    • Kinetics of alkoxysilanes hydrolysis: An empirical approach 

      Issa A.A.; El-Azazy M.; Luyt A.S. ( Nature Research , 2019 , Article)
      Alkoxysilanes and organoalkoxysilanes are primary materials in several industries, e.g. coating, anti-corrosion treatment, fabrication of stationary phase for chromatography, and coupling agents. The hydrolytic polycondensation ...
