Electrospun PVDF graphene oxide composite fibre mats with tunable physical properties.
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
This article is aimed at a basic physical characterization of electrospun PVDF/graphene oxide (GO) composite non-woven fibre mats. The morphological characterization of the prepared fabrics was performed via SEM investigations. ...
Investigation of the physico-mechanical properties of electrospun PVDF/cellulose nanofibers.
(
Wiley
, 2016 , Article)
The electro-activity and mechanical properties of PVDF depends mainly on the b-phase content and degree of crystallinity. In this study, cellulose fibers were used to improve these characteristics. This could be achieved ...
Electrospun Copolyamide Mats Modified by Functionalized Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
In this article, we report the preparation and properties of electro-conductive mats based on the commercial copolyamide (Vestamelt X1010) and multiwall carbon nanotubes functionalized by amino groups. Vestamelt X1010 is ...
Sulfobetaines Meet Carboxybetaines: Modulation of Thermo- and Ion-Responsivity, Water Structure, Mechanical Properties, and Cell Adhesion
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
A procedure for the preparation of copolymers bearing sulfobetaine and carboxybetaine methacrylic-based monomers by free-radical polymerization is described and discussed. A combination of monomers affects the upper critical ...
TiO2/Halloysite hybrid filler reinforced epoxy nanocomposites
(
John Wiley and SonsInc.
, 2018 , Article)
TiO2 nanoparticles and Halloysite nanotubes were used together to modify epoxy matrix. They were introduced into the matrix using two different approaches: (a) both TiO2 nanoparticles and Halloysite nanotubes were incorporated ...
Anti-corrosive and oil sensitive coatings based on epoxy/polyaniline/magnetite-clay composites through diazonium interfacial chemistry
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2018 , Article)
Epoxy polymer nanocomposites filled with magnetite (Fe3O4) clay (B), named (B-DPA-PANI@Fe3O4) have been prepared at different filler loading (0.1, 0.5, 1, 3, 5 wt. %). The surface modification of clay by polyaniline (PANI) ...
Piezoresponse, mechanical, and electrical characteristics of synthetic spider silk nanofibers
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
This work presents electrospun nanofibers from synthetic spider silk protein, and their application as both a mechanical vibration and humidity sensor. Spider silk solution was synthesized from minor ampullate silk protein ...
Light-Responsive Hybrids Based on Carbon Nanotubes with Covalently Attached PHEMA- g-PCL Brushes
(
American Chemical Society
, 2021 , Article)
Carbon nanotube (CNT)-based materials allow for the direct conversion of light into heat and then into mechanical force in the so-called photo-mechanical effect. This effect has been observed almost solely in the form of ...
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 ...
