(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
In this work, a novel and cost-effective bentonite intercalated with polypyrrole Zinc oxide-silver nanocomposite (B-PPy/ZnO) hybrid material was prepared via in situ photopolymerization of pyrrole in the presence of silanized ...
Self-healing behavior of epoxy-based double-layer nanocomposite coatings modified with Zirconia nanoparticles
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
This work reports the self-healing behavior of epoxy-based double-layer nanocomposite coatings designed to mitigate corrosion in various industrial applications. Zirconia (ZrO2) nanoparticles were used as a carrier to load ...
Evaluation of pretreatment and membrane configuration for pressure-retarded osmosis application to produced water from the petroleum industry
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO) is a promising membrane technology for harnessing the osmotic energy of saline solutions. PRO is typically considered with seawater/river water pairings however greater energy can be recovered ...
