Enhanced photocatalytic performance of WON@porous TiO2 nanofibers towards sunlight-assisted degradation of organic contaminants
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2018 , Article)
In the last few decades, TiO2 has been widely used in different types of photocatalytic applications. However, the relatively large optical band gap (∼3.2 eV), low charge carrier mobility and consequently its low quantum ...
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, ...
Morphology, nucleation, and isothermal crystallization kinetics of poly(butylene succinate) mixed with a polycarbonate/MWCNTs masterbatch
(
MDPI
, 2018 , Article)
In this study, nanocomposites were prepared by melt blending poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) with a polycarbonate (PC)/multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) masterbatch, in a twin-screw extruder. The nanocomposites contained ...
Polyaniline/Polystyrene Blends: In-Depth Analysis of the Effect of Sulfonic Acid Dopant Concentration on AC Conductivity Using Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy
(
