Cure kinetics of epoxy/MWCNTs nanocomposites: Isothermal calorimetric and rheological analyses
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
A combinatorial route has been applied in cure kinetics study of epoxy nanocomposites containing multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) based on differential scanning calorimetry and rheokinetic analyses under isothermal ...
Encapsulation of tung oil for self-healing coatings in corrosion applications
(
American Scientific Publishers
, 2015 , Article)
Encapsulation of tung oil for use in self-healing applications using urea-formaldehyde as the shell was performed via in-situ polymerization. Microcapsules ranging from 100 to 250 μm with a shell wall thickness of 1.7–2.6 ...
Population structure of marine turtles in coastal waters of Qatar
(
Inter-Research Science Publishing
, 2015 , Article)
Knowledge of the interrelationships between habitats and life-stage development in marine turtles requires an understanding of recruitment, size and age at maturity, sex ratios, growth and sexual development rates, ...
Propagation rate coefficient for sulfobetaine monomers by PLP-SEC
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Zwitterionic polymers have been extensively used in the biomedical field, however, the knowledge about the kinetics and mechanism of radical polymerization of their monomers is limited. This work introduces the first ...
Sulfide Scaling and Corrosion of Carbon Steel in a Sour Medium
(
The Electrochemical Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The damage caused by the building up of scale inside wellbores and pipelines costs millions of pounds each year. A better understanding of scale formation and the kinetic nature of the process is essential, for asset ...
Pedestrians' Crossing Behavior at Marked Crosswalks on Channelized Right-Turn Lanes at Intersections
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Unsignalized marked crosswalks are problematic locations from pedestrians' safety perspective. Although the priority rule at such locations is clear; pedestrians have the absolute right of way over vehicles, driver often ...

Nowadays hydrogel materials are being used in medical practice for wound dressing purposes. Hydrogel/textile composites can be formed to increase the mechanical strength and handling capability of hydrogel materials. ...
Viscoelastic and photo-actuation studies of composites based on polystyrene-grafted carbon nanotubes and styrene-b-isoprene-b-styrene block copolymer
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Photoactuating composites based on the linear triblock copolymer polystyrene-b-polyisoprene-b-polystyrene (SIS) were prepared by incorporation of polystyrene-modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-PS). Modification ...
Effect of gamma irradiation on the microstructure and morphology of polyethylene oxide and polyvinyl alcohol blends
(
Trans Tech Publications
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
Thin films of a blend of 90, 75, 50 (wt/wt%) percentage of polyethylene oxide and polyvinyl alcohol were synthesized and irradiated with 5, 25, 50, 100 and 200 kGy. The presence of PVA leads to diffusion controlled mechanism ...
