One poly- β-hydroxybutyrate producing bacterial from different microbial sources was isolated and characterized for their morphological, biochemical properties. Based on their 16S rDNA, it was identified as Bacillus cereus E6. The bacterial strain was screened for PHB production and compared for the intensity of fluor…
Investigations on the phase relation in the Pb-U-O ternary system have shown the formation of three lead uranium(VI) oxides: PbUO4, Pb3UO6, and Pb3U11O36. We present here the synthesis, thermal expansion, low- and high-temperature heat capacity, and thermal diffusivity of two representative phases (PbUO4 and Pb3UO6 ur…
It is a great challenge to maintain thermally stable luminescence of red phosphors in white light-emitting diodes (LEDs), because of the large Stokes shift. For the purpose of overcoming this challenge, this work elucidates the intrinsic mechanism of the thermal quenching luminescence of CaAlSiN 3:Eu 2+ . The empty 5d…
The main goal of research presented in this paper was the material and radiological characterization of high volume fly ash concrete (HVFAC) in terms of determination of natural radionuclide content and radon emanation and exhalation coefficients. All concrete samples were made with a fly ash content between 50% and 7…
Combined effect of Carbon and Nitrogen levels and isothermal holding temperature on the microstructure, precipitation and the tensile properties of Vanadium microalloyed steels with 0.05 weight percent Vanadium were studied. Two different Vanadium steels, one having higher Carbon and lower Nitrogen content, HCLN steel…
This review work addresses the recent advances in solving more comprehensive Hamiltonians. The generalized tight-binding model is developed to investigate the feature-rich quantization phenomena in emergent 2D materials. The mutli-orbital bondings, the spin-orbital interactions, the various geometric structures, and t…
We have calculated the Casimir-Polder interaction (CPI) of a micro-particle with a sheet on the basis of the Klimchitskaya-Mostepanenko theory. We find the result that for non-trivial susceptibility values of the sheet and micro-particle, there is crossover between attractive and repulsive behavior. The transition dep…
Graphene oxide (GO) and reduced GO (rGO) are the only variants of graphene that can be manufactured at the kilogram scale, and yet the widely accepted model for their structure has largely relied on indirect evidence. Notably, existing high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) studies of graphene oxide…
Abstract In the past years, research has been focused on biodegradable materials to replace petroleum based plastics for food packaging application. For this purpose, biopolymers are considered the most promising material because of their biodegradable nature and long shelf life properties like resistance to chemical…
A combination of the high damage tolerance of TRIP-steel and the extremely low thermal conductivity of partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ) can provide controlled thermal-mechanical properties to sandwich-shaped composite specimens comprising these materials. Sintering the (TRIP-steel-PSZ)/PSZ sandwich in a single step…
In this work we use computer simulations to explain the variety of crystal orientations observed at interfaces between MgO and Mg when Mg single crystals are oxidized. Using first-principles density functional theory simulations we investigate the interfacial stability of MgO//Mg interfaces, and find that a combinatio…
Abstract Lead-free (1− x )Sr 0.1 Bi 0.45 Na 0.45 TiO 3 − x Bi 0.5 Li 0.5 TiO 3 ( x = 0−0.4) ceramics were successfully prepared by a solid-state reaction technique. The effects of amount of Bi 0.5 Li 0.5 TiO 3 on structure and electrical properties were examined. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that all…
Abstract The effect of Cu nanoparticle ( NP ) content (0.3–3.0 wt%) on antibacterial, thermal, and rheological properties of PVC composites prepared by melt blending method was investigated. The composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy ( SEM ) with energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy ( EDX ), tra…
ABSTRACT The mechanical blending of polypropylene (PP) and low density polyethylene (LDPE) is an economical and simple method for producing new polymeric materials for specific applications. However, the reduction in strain‐at‐break of the blend is one of its main shortcomings. In this study, PP/LDPE foamed parts were…
ABSTRACT Alumina tiles are textured by a laser beam to obtain improved hydrophobic characteristics at the surfaces. Since the textured surfaces are optically opaque, the resulting surfaces are copied and replicated by polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Some of the texture features such as whiskers‐like structures with compl…
Pr3+-doped CaTiO3 perovskite is a promising phosphor compound with the possibility of use in several technological applications. In this paper, we report the substitution of Ca2+ ions with La3+ ions in order to promote Ca vacancies to further enhance photoluminescence (PL). CaTiO3:Pr,La samples were prepared by the po…

A new bacterial strain was isolated from Atlantic rainforest in Brazil for polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production utilizing crude glycerol from biodiesel industry (CG) and it was identified as Pandoraea sp. MA03. Shake flask experiments were performed at 10–50 g L−1 carbon source and showed the best values of poly(3-hy…
Dramatic enhancements in the figure of merit have been obtained in bulk thermoelectric materials by doping, band engineering, and nanostructuring. Especially, in p-type thermoelectrics, high figure of merits near 2.0 have been reported in a few papers through the reduction in lattice thermal conductivity and the advan…
