Modified os sepiae of Sepiella inermis as a low cost, sustainable, bio-based adsorbent for the effective remediation of boron from aqueous solution
( Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH , 2022 , Article)The occurrence of boron in low concentration is essential; however, a higher concentration of boron source in water has a toxic effect on humans as well as have retard effect on agricultural plant growth. Thus, the affordable ... -
Modulation of wettability, gradient and adhesion on self-assembled monolayer by counterion exchange and pH
( Academic Press Inc. , 2018 , Article)In this study, two quaternary ammonium salts derived from L-lipoic acid were applied for self-assembled monolayers formation on rough structured gold surface. The derivatives differ in functionality since one possesses ... -
Molecular and Structural Changes in Induced-Brain Stroke Tissue Using FTIR Imaging Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron and Atomic Force Microscopy
( Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press) , 2016 , Conference Paper)1. Background: Stroke, i.e. loss of brain function(s) due to disturbance in the blood supply to the brain, is the main cause of adult disability (e.g. paralysis) in the world, leaving more than half of the patients dependent ... -
Molecular scale cure rate dependence of thermoset matrix polymers
( Elsevier B.V. , 2016 , Article)This manuscript demonstrates the molecular scale cure rate dependence of di-functional epoxide based thermoset polymers cured with amines. A series of cure heating ramp rates were used to determine the influence of ramp ... -
Monitoring of under deposit corrosion for the oil and gas industry: A review
(2021 , Article Review)Internal corrosion due to under deposit corrosion (UDC) is responsible for at least 20% of incidents in the oil and gas industry. As a result, over the past decade, UDC has received much attention from researchers, corrosion ... -
Monolayer polymer photocells. The opportunities
