Effect of blend ratio and nanofiller localization on the thermal degradation of graphite nanoplatelets-modified PLA/PCL
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2019 , Article)
A variety of poly(lactic acid) (PLA)-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) samples with different PLA:PCL ratios, containing different contents of graphite nanoplatelets (GrP), were analysed in a thermogravimetric analyser (TG) under, ...
Degradation analysis in mixed (MAPbI3 and MAPbBr3) perovskite solar cells under thermal stress
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2019 , Article)
The current study provides an insight into the thermal stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and the factors causing their degradation. To this end, a systematic stability study was carried out on n-i-p type perovskite ...
Crystallization and dielectric behavior of PLA and PHBV in PLA/PHBV blends and PLA/PHBV/TIO 2 nanocomposites
(
BME-PT and GTE
, 2019 , Article)
The morphology, crystallization behavior and mechanical properties of PLA, PHBV and their blends and nanocomposites with TiO 2 as filler were investigated. An uncommon morphological change was observed with increasing PLA ...
Role of TiO2 and carbon nanotubes on polyethylene, and effect of accelerated weathering on photo oxidation and mechanical properties
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
In this work, LLDPE-based composite films were prepared by melt mixing followed by compression molding to investigate the role of titanium oxide nanoparticles (TONPs) and/or multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on the ...
Polyzwitterionic Hydrogels in Engines Based on the Antipolyelectrolyte Effect and Driven by the Salinity Gradient
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
In this paper, we propose and investigate an original approach to energy conversion based on polyzwitterionic hydrogels, which exhibit an antipolyelectrolyte effect that enables them to swell in salt water and shrink in ...
A review on porous polymer composite materials for multifunctional electronic applications
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2019 , Article Review)
This review is focused on the rapidly expanding field of porous materials for the sensor, actuator, energy storage and energy generation application. The synthesis methods to produce excellent porous composites and designs ...
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 ...
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 ...
