ECONOMIC-DEVELOPMENT STAKEHOLDER PERSPECTIVES ON BOOMTOWN DYNAMICS IN THE EAGLE FORD SHALE, TEXAS
(
Wiley
, 2016 , Article)
Unconventional oil and gas production in the United States reversed a decades-
old trend of rising oil imports, provided an argument for lifting the U.S. crude oil
export ban and motivated the development of domestic ...
Positron annihilation study on polyaniline nanocomposite used for Pb(II) ion removal
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2016 , Article)
Nanocomposites of polyaniline (PANI) with three different concentrations of micrometre-sized sawdust are prepared in aqueous media via chemical casting method at room temperature. Thereafter, the removal efficiency of the ...
Assessment of microstructural and mechanical properties of hybrid fibrous self-consolidating concretes using ingredients of plastic wastes
(
Technoscience Publications
, 2016 , Article)
This paper focuses on the experimental investigation carried out on self-consolidating concrete (SCC) reinforced with micro-steel fibre and hybrid fibres (combination of micro-steel fibre and recycled high density polyethylene ...
Therapeutic potential of human olfactory bulb neural stem cells for spinal cord injury in rats.
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2016 , Article)
STUDY DESIGN:
Adult human olfactory bulb neural stem cells (OBNSCs) were isolated from human patients undergoing craniotomy for tumor resection. They were genetically engineered to overexpresses green fluorescent protein ...

(
Taylor & Francis (Routledge)
, 2016 , Article)
Interest in politics is an important ingredient in the formation of civil society, which
in turn provides the basis for good governance. Existing research has not clarified drivers of
political interest with respect to ...
Morphology and properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) filled with mesoporous silica (MCM-41) prepared by melt compounding
(
Springer
, 2016 , Article)
This paper reports on the morphologies of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/mesoporous silica (MCM-41) composites prepared by melt compounding with various MCM-41 contents in the range of 0.1–5 wt%, the interactions between ...
Influence of blending and blend morphology on the thermal properties and crystallization behaviour of PLA and PCL in PLA/PCL blends
(
Springer
, 2016 , Article)
In this paper, we reported on the influence of PCL on the cold crystallization behaviour of PLA in different PLA/PCL blends, and on the influence of blending with PLA on the PCL crystallization behaviour and kinetics. The ...
Effects of microstructures on hydrogen induced cracking of electrochemically hydrogenated double notched tensile sample of 4340 steel
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Quantitative fractographic characteristics of 4340 steel is demonstrated for a grain size range of 10-100 ?m and hardness range of 41-52 HRC. Double-notched tensile samples were electrochemically charged in-situ with ...
Functionalization of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles and its effects on polysulfone-ZnO membranes
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Incorporation of nanoparticles in membranes has recently been reported to lead to enhancement of the membrane performance for various applications. In this study, ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized via sol-gel method using ...
Halloysite Nanotube as Multifunctional Component in Epoxy Protective Coating
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
The current research explores the use of halloysite nanotube as a multifunctional filler in epoxy coating for carbon steel. Epoxy monomer loaded halloysite was incorporated into epoxy coating along with amine hardener ...
