AbstractThree-dimensional butterfly-like Ni architectures were fabricated by a surfactant-assisted hydrothermal method. The Ni architectures, with lengths of about 20 μm and widths of 4-6 μm, were assembled from tens of Ni nanorods with the averaged diameter of about 200 nm. The Ni nanorods were coated by oxide shells…

AbstractCarbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a promising candidate material for use in lithium batteries due to 1D tubular structure, high electrical, thermal conductivities, and extremely large surface area. In this work, the MWCNTs were purified by dispersion in a mixture of HNO3 and H2SO4acids. The oxidized-MWCNTs were used…

AbstractCopper and cobalt aluminates were obtained through the use of chitosan as template. In this synthesis route, chitosan is eliminated by heating, and a porous material is produced. These oxides were used as supports for inulinase immobilization by adsorption process. Physical properties of produced particles wer…

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to study the effect of functionally graded material (FGM) layer around a notch in a plate in three dimensions. Using exponential law of variation of Young's modulus and a coefficient of Poisson constant, the stress concentration factor (SCF) depends on the gradation direction of the co…

Silica nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) synthesized by the sol–gel approach were engineered for size and surface properties by grafting hydrophobic chains to prevent their aggregation and facilitate their contact with the phase boundary, thus improving their dispersibility in lubricant base oils. The surface modification was…

When a capillary bridge of a constant volume is formed between two surfaces, the shape of the liquid bridge will change as the separation between those surfaces is varied. To investigate the variable forces and Laplace pressure of the capillary bridge, as the shape the bridge evolves, a pseudo-three-dimensional force…
