Improved mechanical and corrosion properties of nickel composite coatings by incorporation of layered silicates
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
Layered silicates as exfoliated montmorillonite are incorporated into nickel films by electrodeposition, enhancing both corrosion resistance and hardness. Films were deposited onto stainless steel from a plating solution ...
New Processing Technique To Improve Physical And Mechanical Properties Of Graphene Nanocomposites
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Nanocomposites are commonly used in many applications and new processing techniques are required to improve mechanical and physical properties of these materials. Graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) have high aspect ratio and ...
Anti-microbial Activity Of Graphene Oxide Against Bacteria And Fungi
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Graphene Oxide (GO) is a promising material for various applications. The team prepared GO from graphite and studied the interaction with different microorganisms. Anti-microbial properties were detected for the prepared ...

Mechanism of GaAs surface sulfidation
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2014 , Article)
The mechanism of GaAs sulfidation under illumination and potentiodynamic polarization was investigated in acidified thiourea (TU) electrolytes. Sulfidation generated smooth surfaces, as revealed by scanning electron ...
Thermal characterization of polymer matrix composites containing microencapsulated paraffin in solid or liquid state
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
This work focuses on the study of heat transfer mechanisms in composites materials which may be used for Latent Heat Thermal Energy Storage applications. These composites contain phase change material (PCM) which can absorb ...
Surface modification of low-density polyethylene with poly(2-ethyl-2- oxazoline) using a low-pressure plasma treatment
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is a suitable polymer for biomedical applications due to its good physiochemical properties, but its insufficient biocompatibility is often an issue. Therefore, biocompatible substances such ...
Salt water corrosion resistance of electrodeposited Ni-layered silicate nanocomposite coatings from Watts' type solution
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
Pure nickel and nickel-montmorillonite (Ni-MMT) composite coatings were produced using pulse current electrodeposition from Watts' type solution. Experimental results show that the codeposition of MMT particles into the ...
Polyaniline/polyvinyl alcohol blends: Effect of sulfonic acid dopants on microstructural, optical, thermal and electrical properties
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
This correspondence reports the preparation and performance of different polyaniline–polyvinyl blends (PANI–PVA) doped with sulfonated acids. PANI is prepared by in situ dispersion polymerisation, and a subsequent extensive ...
Reduced erbium-doped ceria nanoparticles: One nano-host applicable for simultaneous optical down- and up-conversions
(
Springer Nature
, 2014 , Article)
This paper introduces a new synthesis procedure to form erbium-doped ceria nanoparticles (EDC NPs) that can act as an optical medium for both up-conversion and down-conversion in the same time. This synthesis process results ...
