Morphology and properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) filled with mesoporous silica (MCM-41) prepared by melt compounding
(
Springer
, 2016 , Article)
This paper reports on the morphologies of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/mesoporous silica (MCM-41) composites prepared by melt compounding with various MCM-41 contents in the range of 0.1–5 wt%, the interactions between ...
Influence of blending and blend morphology on the thermal properties and crystallization behaviour of PLA and PCL in PLA/PCL blends
(
Springer
, 2016 , Article)
In this paper, we reported on the influence of PCL on the cold crystallization behaviour of PLA in different PLA/PCL blends, and on the influence of blending with PLA on the PCL crystallization behaviour and kinetics. The ...
Effects of microstructures on hydrogen induced cracking of electrochemically hydrogenated double notched tensile sample of 4340 steel
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Quantitative fractographic characteristics of 4340 steel is demonstrated for a grain size range of 10-100 ?m and hardness range of 41-52 HRC. Double-notched tensile samples were electrochemically charged in-situ with ...
Halloysite Nanotube as Multifunctional Component in Epoxy Protective Coating
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
The current research explores the use of halloysite nanotube as a multifunctional filler in epoxy coating for carbon steel. Epoxy monomer loaded halloysite was incorporated into epoxy coating along with amine hardener ...
Comparative study between the rotor flux oriented control and non-linear backstepping control of a five-phase induction motor drive - an experimental validation
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2016 , Article)
Multiphase variable speed electric drives are employed in applications where the reduction in the total power per phase and the highest level of overall system reliability is required. Most of the literature on five-phase ...
Reduced graphene oxide filled poly(dimethyl siloxane) based transparent stretchable, and touch-responsive sensors
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
The ongoing revolution in touch panel technology and electronics demands the need for thin films, which are flexible, stretchable, conductive, and highly touch responsive. In this regard, conductive elastomer nanocomposites ...
Synthesis of Ordered Mesoporous Silica with Tunable Morphologies and Pore Sizes via a Nonpolar Solvent-Assisted Stöber Method
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
A facile nonpolar solvent-assisted Stöber method has been developed to synthesize ordered mesoporous silica materials with tunable pore size and diverse morphologies and mesostructures by using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide ...
Preparation and characterization of urea-formaldehyde microcapsules filled with paraffin oil
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Paraffin oil was encapsulated in a urea–formaldehyde polymer shell by in situ polymerization. The effect of modifying the fabrication parameters, specifically the emulsifier, the core material concentration, the stirring ...
Tailoring of the thermal, mechanical and dielectric properties of the polypropylene foams using gamma-irradiation
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
This study investigate the influence of gamma-irradiation (GI) doses from 0 up to 50 kGy on the polypropylene (PP) foams, mainly the impact on their structural and physical properties. It was found that structural properties ...
Sensitive detection and glycoprofiling of a prostate specific antigen using impedimetric assays
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
This study presents a proof-of-concept for the development of an impedimetric biosensor for ultra-sensitive glycoprofiling of prostate specific antigen (PSA). The biosensor exhibits three unique characteristics: (1) analysis ...
