Development and properties of polymeric nanocomposite coatings
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Polymeric-based nanocomposite coatings were synthesized by reinforcing epoxy matrix with titanium nanotubes (TNTs) loaded with dodecylamine (DOC). The performance of the developed nanocomposite coatings was investigated ...
Understanding the Origin of the Ultrahigh Rate Performance of a SiO2-Modified LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 Cathode for Lithium-Ion Batteries
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO) is one of the most promising cathode materials for next-generation lithium-ion batteries for rapid charging–discharging applications. The surfaces of LNMO samples are coated with different amounts ...
Surface engineering of the PLA films for fabricating dexterous humidity sensors
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2018 , Article)
This study presents the surface engineering of the thin films of a biodegradable polymer, poly lactic acid (PLA), for its application in moisture/humidity sensors. The PLA films were deposited on the comb-like pre-patterned ...
Synthesis and characterisation of Ni–B/Ni–P–CeO2 duplex composite coatings
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2018 , Article)
Abstract: Binary (Ni–B, Ni–P) and duplex coatings (Ni–B/Ni–P, Ni–B/Ni–P–CeO2) with an inner Ni–B layer were electrodeposited on mild steel substrates. A comparison of the structural, surface, mechanical, and electrochemical ...
Microstructure and Mechanical Behavior of Microwave Sintered Cu50Ti50 Amorphous Alloy Reinforced Al Metal Matrix Composites
(
Minerals, Metals and Materials Society
, 2018 , Article)
In the present work, Al metal matrix composites reinforced with Cu-based (Cu50Ti50) amorphous alloy particles synthesized by ball milling followed by a microwave sintering process were studied. The amorphous powders of ...
Synthesis and Performance Evaluation of Pulse Electrodeposited Ni-AlN Nanocomposite Coatings
(
Hindawi Limited
, 2018 , Article)
This research work presents the microscopic analysis of pulse electrodeposited Ni-AlN nanocomposite coatings using SEM and AFM techniques and their performance evaluation (mechanical and electrochemical) by employing ...
Erosion behavior of API X120 steel: Effect of particle speed and impact angle
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
The dry erosion behavior of API-X120 pipeline steel was investigated, under the erosive interaction of aluminum oxide particulates, in a range of speed (43-167 m·s-1) and impact angle (30°-90°). Erosion behavior is ...
Scanning Electron Microscopic Studies of Microwave Sintered Al-SiC Nanocomposites and Their Properties
(
Hindawi Limited
, 2018 , Article)
Al-metal matrix composites (AMMCs) reinforced with diverse volume fraction of SiC nanoparticles were synthesized using microwave sintering process. The effects of the reinforcing SiC particles on physical, microstructure, ...
Organic Thin-Film Capacitive and Resistive Humidity Sensors: A Focus Review
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
