Stretchable Electrospun PVDF-HFP/Co-ZnO Nanofibers as Piezoelectric Nanogenerators
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2018 , Article)
Herein, we investigate the morphology, structure and piezoelectric performances of neat polyvinylidene fluoride hexafluoropropylene (PVDF-HFP) and PVDF-HFP/Co-ZnO nanofibers, fabricated by electrospinning. An increase in ...
Effect of cerium doping on the optical and photocatalytic properties of ZnO nanoflowers
(
Indian Academy of Sciences
, 2019 , Article)
Photocatalytic performances of the synthesized cerium doped (Ce-doped) ZnO nanoflowers are reported in this work. A microwave-assisted sol–gel method is adopted for the synthesis of the nanomaterial and its structural and ...
Analysis of road traffic crashes in the State of Qatar
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2019 , Article)
Road traffic crashes (RTCs) are globally acknowledged as increasing threat to society, because they can affect many lives when they result in severe injury or fatality. In the State of Qatar RTCs are getting more awareness ...
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 ...
Studies on the Electrical Properties of Graphene Oxide-Reinforced Poly (4-Styrene Sulfonic Acid) and Polyvinyl Alcohol Blend Composites
(
World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
In the present study, graphene oxide (GO)-reinforced poly (4-styrenesulfonic acid) (PSSA)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) blend composite films were prepared using colloidal blending technique at various concentrations of GO ...
Electrical and Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) shielding properties of hexagonal boron nitride nanoparticles reinforced polyvinylidene fluoride nanocomposite films
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
The hexagonal boron nitride nanoparticles (h-BNNPs) reinforced flexible polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanocomposite films were prepared via a simple and versatile solution casting method. The morphological, thermal and ...
Microstructure, wear and corrosion characteristics of Cu matrix reinforced SiC–graphite hybrid composites
(
SAGE Publications Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of SiC-graphite reinforcement on the properties of pure copper. Copper matrix composites with SiC-graphite reinforcement (0, 2.5,5, 7.5 and 10 wt.%) were prepared ...
Surface Modified Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles as Smart UV Sensors
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2019 , Article)
The present paper examines the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles and their surface modification via the microwave assisted sonochemical method along with its successful application in designing a smart UV sensor. The structure ...
Novel electrodeposited Ni-B/Y 2 O 3 composite coatings with improved properties
(
MDPI AG
, 2017 , Article)
Ni-B/Y 2 O 3 composite coatings were developed through an electrodeposition process to study the effect of addition of Y 2 O 3 particles on structure, surface, thermal, mechanical, and anticorrosion properties of Ni-B ...
