Binding energy, structural, and dielectric properties of thin film of poly(aniline-co-m-fluoroaniline)
(
Institute for Ionics
, 2018 , Article)
Semi-transparent and conducting thin film of poly(aniline-co-m-fluoroaniline) has been synthesized by a conventional oxidative copolymerization method using an aqueous solution of aniline, m-fluoroanilne as the monomers ...
Effect of expandable graphite on thermal and flammability properties of poly(lactic acid)-starch/poly(ɛ-caprolactone) blend systems
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
The effect of expandable graphite (EG) on the flammability and thermal stability of a poly(lactic acid) (PLA)-starch/poly(ɛ-caprolactone) (PCL) blend was investigated. The samples were prepared by melt-mixing and characterized ...
Dilution of seawater using dewatered construction water in a hybrid forward osmosis system
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
In this study, dewatered construction water was used for the first time as the feed solution in a combined pretreatment-forward osmosis process to dilute seawater (i.e. draw solution) for further desalination. It was found ...
Foamy phase change materials based on linear low-density polyethylene and paraffin wax blends
(
Springer Nature
, 2018 , Article)
Foamy phase-change materials (FPCMs) based on linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) blended with 30 wt.% of paraffin wax (W) were successfully prepared for the first time. The advantage of these materials is their double ...
Nanoscale studies of the early stages of scale formation in sour environments
(
one petro
, 2018 , Article)
The corrosion of carbon steel in environments containing hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a critical issue to the oil and gas industry. Although considerable research efforts have been carried out, there is not yet a complete ...
Light-controllable viscoelastic properties of a photolabile carboxybetaine ester-based polymer with mucus and cellulose sulfate
(
Springer Nature
, 2018 , Article)
In this study, the interaction of a photoswitchable carboxybetaine ester-based polymer with mucus and cellulose sulfate was elucidated, showing light-controllable viscoelastic properties. This polymer contains photolabile ...
Photochemical grafting of polysulfobetaine onto polyethylene and polystyrene surfaces and investigation of long-term stability of the polysulfobetaine layer in seawater
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and polystyrene (PS) films with hydrophilic surface were prepared by photochemical grafting of sulfobetaine-based copolymer containing photolabile moiety, and long-term stability of the ...
Advanced antifouling zwitterionic layer based impedimetric HER2 biosensing in human serum: Glycoprofiling as a novel approach for breast cancer diagnostics
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
There are two key novel components presented here behind identification of potential novel breast cancer (BCa) diagnostic approach: 1. application of photoimmobilizable zwitterionic hydrogels resisting non-specific protein ...
Influence of relative humidity on the electrical response of PEDOT:PSS based organic field-effect transistor
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
We have investigated the influence of relative humidity on the electrical response of a bottom gate organic field-effect transistor (OFET) with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(4-styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) as an ...
Indentation and bending behavior of electroless Ni-P-Ti composite coatings on pipeline steel
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Electroless Ni-P coatings have been adopted in many industrial applications due to their excellent wear and corrosion resistance. The unique properties and autocatalytic nature suggest a potential usage as a pipeline inner ...
