Sensing, Measuring and Modelling the Mechanical Properties of Sandstone
(
Springer-Verlag Wien
, 2018 , Article)
We present a hybrid framework for simulating the strength and dilation characteristics of sandstone. Where possible, the grain-scale properties of sandstone are evaluated experimentally in detail. Also, using photo-stress ...
Polymerization of 3-cyanopropyl (triethoxy) silane: A kinetic study using gas chromatography
(
John Wiley and SonsInc.
, 2018 , Article)
Gas chromatography (GC) was used to study the kinetics of the 3-cyanopropyl triethoxysilane (CTES) polymerization. The reaction is a consecutive complex reaction that depends mainly on the kinetics of the first hydrolyzed ...
Synthesis and evaluation of copper-supported titanium oxide nanotubes as electrocatalyst for the electrochemical reduction of carbon oxide to organics
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) is considered as the prime reason for the global warming effect and one of the useful ways to transform it into an array of valuable products is through electrochemical reduction of CO 2 (ERC). This ...
Dielectric properties of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanocomposites filled with green synthesized zinc sulphide (ZnS) nanoparticles
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2019 , Article)
In this study, zinc sulphide nanoparticles (ZnS NPs) have been synthesized by green synthesis approach. These ZnS NPs were used as nanofiller to fabricate polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) based nanocomposite films via solution ...
Developments and modifications in passive solar still: A review
(
Desalination Publications
, 2019 , Article)
Due to the increment in pollution as well as global warming, the scarcity of potable water is increasing day by day. There are several ways to obtain pure water, but solar desalination with use of solar still is the cheapest ...
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 ...
Organic nanostructure sensing layer developed by AAO template for the application in humidity sensors
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2019 , Article)
The present study demonstrates a novel nanoporous structure of aluminium 1,8,15,22-tetrakis 29H,31H phthalocyanine chloride (AlPcCl) prepared by template-assisted method for a humidity sensor. The nanoporous sensing layer ...
Superhydrophobic Leaf Mesh Decorated with SiO2 Nanoparticle-Polystyrene Nanocomposite for Oil-Water Separation
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
Here, we report a novel and simple approach to fabricate crater-like superhydrophobic leaf mesh for oil-water separation. Nanocomposite of SiO2 and polystyrene (SiO2-PS) deposited on a naturally dried Tectona grandis leaf ...
Calcium deficiency in hydroxyapatite and its drug delivery applications
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2018 , Article)
In this work, calcium deficient hydroxyapatites (HAPs) [Ca 10 ? x (PO 4 ) 6 (OH) 2 ] [where x = 0 ? 0.3] were synthesised by precipitation method and calcined samples were characterised by Fourier transformation infrared ...
Methanol Electro-Oxidation in Alkaline Medium by Ni Based Binary and Ternary Catalysts: Effect of Iron (Fe) on the Catalyst Performance
(
Pleiades Publishing
, 2019 , Article)
Pt free methanol electro oxidation catalysts with stable response are of interest to reduce the overall cost of the direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC). Here, nickel based bi and tri metallic catalysts have been prepared on ...
