Date palm wood flour/glass fibre reinforced hybrid composites of recycled polypropylene: Mechanical and thermal properties
( Elsevier, Ltd , 2012 , Article)Recycled polypropylene (RPP) based hybrid composites of date palm wood flour/glass fibre were prepared by different weight ratios of the two reinforcements. Mixing process was carried out in an extruder and samples were ... -
Mechanical and thermal properties of date palm leaf fiber reinforced recycled poly (ethylene terephthalate) composites
( Elsevier, Ltd , 2013 , Article)Development of a recycled poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PETr) reinforced with surface treated date palm leaf fiber (DPLF) composites with enhanced mechanical properties have been studied. Surface modified date palm leaf ... -
Oleic acid-grafted chitosan/graphene oxide composite coating for corrosion protection of carbon steel
( Elsevier Ltd , 2016 , Article)An anticorrosion coating film based on the formation of nanocomposite coating is reported in this study. The composite consisted of chitosan (green matrix), oleic acid, and graphene oxide (nano filler). The nanocomposite ... -
Review of recent research on biomedical applications of electrospun polymer nanofibers for improved wound healing
( Future Medicine , 2016 , Article)Wound dressings play an important role in a patient’s recovery from health problems, as unattended wounds could lead to serious complications such as infections or, ultimately, even death. Therefore, wound dressings since ... -
Thermoelectric properties of SbNCa3 and BiNCa3 for thermoelectric devices and alternative energy applications
( Elsevier B.V. , 2014 , Article)Thermoelectric properties of two antiperovskites SbNCa3 and BiNCa3 are calculated using first principles calculations. High values of Seebeck coefficients are observed for these materials. Electrical and thermal conductivities ... -
Biological screening of newly synthesized BIAN N-heterocyclic gold carbene complexes in zebrafish embryos
( MDPI AG , 2015 , Article)N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC) metal complexes possess diverse biological activities but have yet to be extensively explored as potential chemotherapeutic agents. We have previously reported the synthesis of a new class of ... -
An Interface Coassembly in Biliquid Phase: Toward Core-Shell Magnetic Mesoporous Silica Microspheres with Tunable Pore Size
( American Chemical Society , 2015 , Article)Core-shell magnetic mesoporous silica microspheres (Magn-MSMs) with tunable large mesopores in the shell are highly desired in biocatalysis, magnetic bioseparation, and enrichment. In this study, a shearing assisted interface ... -
Surfactant for Enhanced Rheological, Electrical, and Electrochemical Performance of Suspensions for Semisolid Redox Flow Batteries and Super capacitors
( WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. , 2015 , Article)A suspension of Li4Ti5O12 and of Ketjen black in a solution of 1?m lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide in propylene carbonate is studied as the anolyte for semisolid redox flow batteries. The rheological behavior ... -
From Water Oxidation to Reduction: Homologous Ni–Co Based Nanowires as Complementary Water Splitting Electrocatalysts
( WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA , 2015 , Article)A homologous Ni–Co based nanowire system, consisting of both nickel cobalt oxide and nickel cobalt sulfide nanowires, is developed for efficient, complementary water splitting. The spinel-type nickel cobalt oxide (NiCo2O4) ... -
A Framework to Manage through Control and Automation a semester long student Project assignment in e-Learning Environment
(2013 , Conference)Managing semester-long project assignments is not always an easy task since teachers need to keep track of many elements of the project that will reflect in a proper assessment of the students’ work. Integrating an LMS ...
