An Advanced Quaternary Composite for Efficient Water Splitting
(
Springer Nature
, 2023 , Article)
Electrochemical water splitting is a promising pathway for effective hydrogen (H2) evolution in energy conversion and storage, with electrocatalysis playing a key role. Developing efficient, cost-effective and stable ...
Sense and Learn: Recent Advances in Wearable Sensing and Machine Learning for Blood Glucose Monitoring and Trend-Detection
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2022 , Article)
(Figure presented.) Diabetes mellitus is characterized by elevated blood glucose levels, however patients with diabetes may also develop hypoglycemia due to treatment. There is an increasing demand for non-invasive blood ...
Comparative experimental and modelling study of the thermal and thermo-mechanical properties of LLDPE/wax blends
(
Springer Science and Business Media B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
The interactions and morphology of molecules in a polymer blend influence the physical properties of the blend. However, little is known about the influence of molecular interaction and morphology on the thermal and ...
Free-standing polypropylene porous thin films using energy efficient coating technique
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2023 , Article)
Amongst various techniques to prepare thin films, spin coating takes less time to make thin films, is less energy-intensive, is easier to use, and provides reproducible results quickly. It is observed that such a user-friendly ...
A facile energy-efficient approach to prepare super oil-sorbent thin films
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2023 , Article)
Oil spills on water surface and shoreline have caused significant water pollution, and one of the ways to deal with them is to use oil sorbents. An effective sorbent provides high oil uptake and retention values, high ...
Modeling and sensitivity analysis of the forward osmosis process to predict membrane flux using a novel combination of neural network and response surface methodology techniques
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
The forward osmosis (FO) process is an emerging technology that has been considered as an alternative to desalination due to its low energy consumption and less severe reversible fouling. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) ...
Melt processing and properties of linear low density polyethylene-graphene nanoplatelet composites
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Composites of Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) and Graphene Nanoplatelets (GNPs) were processed using a twin screw extruder under different extrusion conditions. The effects of screw speed, feeder speed and GNP ...
Biotechnological production process and life cycle assessment of graphene
(
Hindawi
, 2017 , Article)
The aim of this study is to compare the graphene produced using a biotechnological method (Escherichia coli) with the graphene produced by Hummers' method (a chemical method) and to study the effect on the energy consumption ...
Melt processing and characterisation of polyamide 6/graphene nanoplatelet composites
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2015 , Article)
Graphene, due to its outstanding properties, has become the topic of much research activity in recent years. Much of that work has been on a laboratory scale however, if we are to introduce graphene into real product ...
Processing and characterization of polyethylene-based composites
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2015 , Article)
Thermoplastic matrix polymer composites have gained commercial success in the semistructural and structural applications. Polyethylene (PE) is one of the most versatile and widely used thermoplastics in the world because ...
