Anisotropy in CNT composite fabricated by combining directional freezing and gamma irradiation of acrylic acid
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
A novel fabrication process for composite consisting of organized modified carbon nanotubes (CNT) in the polyacrylic acid (PAA) matrix has been developed. The CNT were organized along crystallite domains during a directional ...
Enhanced photovoltaic performance of dye-sensitized solar cells using TiO2-graphene microplatelets hybrid photoanode
(
IEEE Electron Devices Society
, 2016 , Article)
Hybrid photoanodes for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) were prepared by simple addition of graphene (GR) microplatelets to TiO 2 nanoparticulate paste. Transmission electron microscopy was used to confirm the presence ...
Analysis of partial electrocoalescence by Level-Set and finite element methods
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2016 , Article)
The coalescence of a water drop in a dieletric oil phase at a water layer interface in the presence of an electric field is simulated by solving the Navier Stokes and charge conservation equations with the finite element ...
The status of industrial and municipal effluent treatment with membrane bioreactor technology
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
The status of MBR technology has been scrutinised with reference to (a) available commercial technologies and their characteristics, (b) key design and performance parameters of existing full-scale installations, and (c) ...
Containers' for self-healing epoxy composites and coating : Trends and advances
(
BME-PT and GTE
, 2016 , Article)
The introduction of self-healing functionality into epoxy matrix is an important and challenging topic. Various micro/nano containers loaded self-healing agents are developed and incorporated into epoxy matrix to impart ...
Rheological and thermal properties of novel surfactant-polymer systems for EOR applications
(
Wiley-Liss Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
In this work, two surfactant-polymer (SP) systems were evaluated for enhanced oil recovery applications. The first SP system contained partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide and alkyl polyethylene glycol ether-based non-ionic ...
Direct Experimental Evidence for Photoinduced Strong-Coupling Polarons in Organolead Halide Perovskite Nanoparticles
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
Echoing the roaring success of their bulk counterparts, nano-objects built from organolead halide perovskites (OLHP) present bright prospects for surpassing the performances of their conventional organic and inorganic ...
Effect of extraction solvents on polyphenols and antioxidant activity of medicinal halophytes
(
Pakistan Botanical Society
, 2016 , Article)
This study was conducted to determine the most effective solvent for extraction of polyphenols and antioxidant activity of medicinally important coastal halophytes (Thespesia populneoides, Salvadora persica, Ipomoea ...
Health implications of atmospheric aerosols from asbestos-bearing road pavements traditionally used in Southern Brazil.
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Serpentine and amphibole asbestos occur naturally in certain geologic settings worldwide, most commonly in association with ultramafic rocks, along associated faults. Ultramafic rocks have been used in Piên County, Southern ...
Sensitive detection and glycoprofiling of a prostate specific antigen using impedimetric assays
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
This study presents a proof-of-concept for the development of an impedimetric biosensor for ultra-sensitive glycoprofiling of prostate specific antigen (PSA). The biosensor exhibits three unique characteristics: (1) analysis ...
