Thermoelectric Properties of nano structured Fe-Al Alloys
Abstract: Thermoelectric properties of Nano structured Fe-Al Alloys. Susil k Putatunda and Shashank Nellikuppam. Wayne State University, Thermoelectric materials have emerged as very important engineering materials in recent years because of their ability to convert [...]
The Perspective Applications of Graphene Oxide in the Construction Building Materials
With the rapid development of the infrastructure, Portland cement has widely been used for building and construction. High performance cement and concrete is urgently needed to satisfy the high-rise buildings, marine tunnel and cross-sea bridges. [...]
Luminiscent properties of europium-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate synthesized at room temperature
For many years the lanthanides have been considered as a series of complex, difficult to understand elements, however, research on them has not been adequate. In view of the many properties that have, in the [...]
Innovative 3D Glass Fiber Metal Laminate
Abstract A new assembled glass fiber metal laminate has a 3D E-glass fiber fabric core layer, which contains two bidirectional fabrics knitted together by vertical braided glass fiber pillars. Application of resin to core faces [...]
The fracture behavior of SiC/Cu interpenetrating phase nanocomposites: A molecular dynamics study
Owing to their high strength, good abrasion resistance, low density, high melting temperature, and other interesting characteristics, ceramics have been extensively used in a wide range of industries [1]. However, one of the major drawbacks [...]
Structural and Optical Properties of Rare Earth Nano-Crystalline Oxides Embedded in Polymethyl Methacrylate
In this study, various ratio and sizes of Nd2O3, Yb2O3 and Er2O3 nano-crystalline oxides were doped into polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) host material. PMMA is an amorphous, thermoplastic polymer with an optical transparency region from 300 [...]
Properties of Multifunctional Hybrid Carbon Nanotube/ Carbon Fiber Polymer Matrix Composites
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been studied extensively since their discovery and demonstrated at the nanoscale to have superior mechanical, electrical and thermal properties in comparison to micro and macro scale properties of conventional engineering materials. [...]
Nanofiller-modified microfibrillar composites: origin of complex effect of nanoparticles with different geometry
Kelnar I., Kratochvíl J., Padovec Z., Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, CZ
Microfibrillar composites (MFCs) are polymer – polymer composites prepared by drawing of suitable polymer blends, where application of various nanofillers have strong potential to eliminate basic disadvantage of MFC arising from limited parameters of polymer [...]
Durable Hydrophobic Coatings for Corrosion Protection of Metallic Materials
Luna has developed an exceptionally durable, transparent, fluid resistant coating for corrosion mitigation on selected metals and alloys. There have been many recent research and commercial efforts in the area of superhydrophobic or water repellent [...]
Facile Spray Coating in Preparing Anisotropic Composites
Anisotropy has been taken advantage in composites to achieve specific mechanical, electrical, magnetic and other functional properties. In composite mechanics, orientation of fiber in polymer matrix will reinforce the composites to the greatest potential along [...]
