Nanocharacterization Studies on Surface Modified Nanoporous Gold Films for Sensor Applications

Joshi M., Swastic S., Vemula J.K., Priydarshi K., Deshpande A., Ramanan S.R., Krishnan J.N., BITS Pilani, K. K. Birla Goa Campus, IN

Nano porous gold film is fabricated by electroless plating with Potassium Gold Cyanide as plating solution. E-beam deposited Cu substrates are chosen for plating experiments. SEM studies revealed the pore size to be 100+20 nm [...]

Polymer nanocomposites: an advanced material for functional fibers

Joshi M., Indian Institute of Technology, IN

The paper illustrates our development in the area of producing fibers from polymer nanocomposites both through melt and solution intercalation route. The polymers studied are Polypropylene, Polyethylene Polyurethane and Nylon. The naofillers used range from [...]

Carbon Nanofiber Reinforced Carbon/Polymer Composites

Joshi M., Bhattacharyya A., Indian Institute of Technology, IN

Conventional carbon fiber reinforced phenolic resins are widely used to prepare carbon/carbon composites due to their high carbon yield. Property enhancement of carbon fabric/phenolic composites is possible through carbon nanomaterial dispersion in the matrix. The [...]
