Irradiation effect on ethanol sensing response of zinc and tin composite oxide
Sensing response of synthesized composite oxide of zinc and tin to ethanol vapor before and after irradiation has been reported in this paper. Composite oxide powder has been synthesized by a chemical route followed by [...]
Manufacturing Tough Amorphous Thermoplastic-Graphene Nanocomposites
Nanocomposites have been studied for more than two decades because of their superior performance in comparison with traditional composites. However, few products made using nanocomposites are available commercially. Achieving uniform dispersion in the polymer matrix, [...]
Thermal and Thermomechanical Properties of Epoxy Resin / Carbon Black Nanocomposites
Kanapitsas A., Zois H., Stimoniaris A.Z., Delides C.G., Technological Educational Institute Of Lamia, GR
The main aim of the present work is to study the mechanical and thermal properties of nanocomposite materials based on epoxy resin (ER) matrix reinforced with carbon black (CB) nanoparticles. The filler concentration was systematically [...]
Manufacturing and Properties of Nanofiber Composites
Recently, a fiber composite for various industrial applications including automotive, aerospace and civil engineering is in the spotlight as a specialized-functional material such as high strength and modulus, high thermal resistance and high elasticity etc. [...]

Vinogradov A.V., Vinogradov V.V., Vinogradov A.V., Vinogradov V.V., Agafonov A.V., Institute of Solution Chemistry RAS, RU
In this work, we have obtained film heterostructures such as MeO/TiO2 possessing high photoactivity by low-temperature sol-gel method. We have succeeded in obtaining photoactive TiO2-based crystalline coatings, FeTiO3 and CoTiO3, without calcination and possessing an [...]
Viscosity Behavior of Magnetic Nanoparticle Filled Fluids and Impact Resistance of Their Fabric Composites
Ferromagnetic fluid(FMF) and magneto-rheological fluid(MRF) have been prepared from iron oxide and iron alloy nanoparticles, respectively, with a proper fluidic medium. In the FMF, chemically synthesized iron oxide particles having diameters of several nanometers were [...]
Extremely Stretchable Electrode based on Combination of Inkjet-Printed Silver and Conductive Composite for Stretchable Lighting Applications
We have studied stretchable electrode based on combination of inkjet-printed silver electrode and conductive composite materials for stretchable lighting device applications. Previous stretchable electrodes were mainly realized by either vacuum deposition or inkjet-printing of conductive [...]
Novel Metal-Matrix Composites with Integrally-Bound Nanoscale Carbon
Recent advances in nanomanufacturing have made it possible for large amounts (up to 6 wt.%) of nanoscale carbon to be retained as an integral second phase in metals such as aluminum and copper. The carbon [...]
