Properties of microwave sintered al-cu metal matrix composites
(
Association for Iron and Steel Technology, AISTECH
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The present work focuses on the effect of copper (Cu) reinforcement on structural and mechanical properties of Al-Cu composites synthesized through microwave sintering approach. The pure aluminum (Al) and copper (Cu) powders ...
Synthesis, characterization and applications of electroless Ni-B coatings-A review
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2016 , Article Review)
Electroless nickel coating process has experienced remarkable modifications since its invention by Branner and Riddell in 1946. This process has proven to be very useful for applying uniform, hard, wear resistant coatings ...
A comparative study on the performance of hybrid solar cells containing ZnSTe QDs in hole transporting layer and photoactive layer
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2016 , Article)
In this paper, ZnSTe quantum dots-based hybrid solar cells (HSC) with two different device architectures have been investigated. The improved performance of the poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and [6,6]phenyl C71 butyric ...
Impact of moisture contents on the performance of organic bi-layer ITO/OD thermo-electric cells
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
We propose a bi-layer thermo-electric cell based on elastic indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate and organic semiconductor orange dye (OD). It is observed that thermo-electric voltages are ~30% higher in bi-layer ITO/OD cell ...
Corrosion behavior of API X-80 steel in hydrogen sulfide environment at different temperatures
(
National Assoc. of Corrosion Engineers International
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The electrochemical behavior of API X-80 steel materials in 3.5% wt. of NaCI solution containing different concentration of H2S at different temperatures was studied. Potendiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance ...
Integration of the inexpensive CuNWs based transparent counter electrode with dye sensitized photo sensors
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
We demonstrate, a newly developed, inexpensive transparent conducting electrode (TCE) based on copper nanowires (CuNWs) combined with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate ...
Structural, morphological and optical properties of PEDOT:PSS/QDs nano-composite films prepared by spin-casting
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
This paper describes the structural, morphological and optical properties of the nano-composite of poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) and quantum dots (QDs). The ZnSe and CdSe QDs have been ...

Metal free organic semiconductor “7,16-bis(3,3-dimethyl-3H-indol-2-yl)-5,14-dihydrodibenzo [b,i][1,4,8,11] tetraazacyclotetradecine” and metal free with extended π-conjugation organic semiconductor “8,19-bis(3,3-dimethyl ...
Effect of sintering temperature on the structural and magnetic properties of MgFe2O4 ceramics prepared by spark plasma sintering
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Spark plasma sintering (SPS) is a powerful technique to produce fine grain dense ferrite at low temperature. This work was undertaken to study the effect of sintering temperature on the densification, microstructures and ...
Erosive wear performance of API X42 pipeline steel
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
The need to transport petroleum products through pipelines has resulted in the increased erosion of the pipeline materials used in the petroleum industry. In this study, dry erosion test was performed using sand blaster ...
