Wood polymer composites (WPC) based on nano SiO 2 and nanoclay were prepared by the impregnation of melamine formaldehyde‐furfuryl alcohol copolymer, 1,3‐dimethylol 4,5‐dihydroxy ethylene urea, a crosslinking agent, and a renewable polymer. Surface modification of SiO 2 and formation of composites were characterized b…
We extend the theory of interfacial plasmon-phonon scattering to top-gated single-layer graphene. As with bottom-gated graphene, interfacial plasmon-phonon (IPP) modes are formed from the coupling between the graphene plasmon and the surface polar phonon modes in the top and bottom oxides. We study the effect of the t…
Quantum confinement plays an important role in the optical properties of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). In this work, we combine experiment and modeling to systematically investigate the size dependence of the degenerate two-photon absorption (TPA) of below-band-gap radiation in CdSe QDs. The TPA coefficient β at 8…
Abstract Two commercial Alkali Surfactant Polymer (ASP) floods became operational in the Taber area of Alberta, Canada in 2006 and 2008. Both of these floods used NaOH as the Alkali. Throughout the course of both projects extreme scale deposition was observed in downhole production equipment, gathering systems, and in…
In heterogeneous catalysis, a catalytic process takes place at finite temperature and at finite pressure of the atmosphere of the reactant gases. By applying ab initio atomistic thermodynamics to the model case of free Au2 and clusters in an atmosphere of O2 and CO, we derive all the thermodynamically possible reactio…
We report that the continuous assembly of polymers (CAP) approach, mediated by ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), is a facile and versatile technology to prepare engineered nanocoatings for various biomedical applications. Low-fouling coatings on particles were obtained by the formation of multicomposition…
ABSTRACT Biodegradable stereocomplex‐type poly( l ‐lactide) (PLLA)/poly( d ‐lactide) (PDLA)/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) nanocomposites are prepared via simple melt blending method at PDLA loadings from 5 to 20 wt %. Formation of the stereocomplex crystals in the nanocomposites is confirmed by the phase trans…
Transparent conductive and flexible Mg and Ga co-doped ZnO (MGZO) thin films were prepared on poly-ethylene terephthalate (PET) by RF magnetron sputtering technique at room temperature. The effects of different working pressures on the structural, chemical, morphological, optical and electrical properties of MGZO thin…
Polished pieces of a glass with the composition 2BaO·TiO 2 ·2.75SiO 2 (fresnoite + 0.75SiO 2 ) were annealed at 790–970 °C and subsequently analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) including electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). Surface morphologies and textures of samples annea…
Powders composing of La 2 Zr 2 O 7 ( LZ ) and ( Zr 0.8 Y 0.2 ) O 1.9 (10 YSZ ) phases (volume ratio = 1:1) were synthesized by using a sol‐spray pyrolysis method. The effects of annealing temperature on the grain size and lattice parameter of the LZ –10 YSZ powders were investigated. XRD results showed that the grain…
Three new series of symmetric dimers containing a naphthoyloxybenzyl (NB), benzoyloxynaphthyl (BN), and naphthoyloxysalicyl (NS) mesogenic core linked to an alkylene spacer via an imino group were synthesized. The effects of the variant spacer parity as well as the variant core structure on the mesomorphic properties…
Hydrogen-permselective asymmetric silicon carbide (SiC) membranes were prepared in this study by incorporating highly porous SiC nanofibers into the membrane structure using a sacrificial interlayer-based technique. The resulting membranes were characterized with permeation studies, nitrogen adsorption experiments, an…
Biodegradable poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL)/silica nanocomposites containing 1–9 wt% silica nanoparticles were prepared by melt compounding in this work. The rheology, mechanical properties, and biodegradation were investigated. PCL/silica nanocomposite shows a high percolation threshold, which is between 7 and 9 wt%. On…
ABSTRACT Highly filled graphite polybenzoxazine composites as bipolar plate material for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) are developed. At the maximum graphite content of 80 wt % (68 vol %), storage modulus was increased from 5.9 GPa of the neat polybenzoxazine matrix to 23 GPa in the composite. Glass t…
In this work, zinc borate was used as a flame retardant in ethylene vinyl acetate/magnesium hydroxide or aluminum hydroxide flame-retardant formulations. High content zinc borate leads to significant improvements of flame retardancy through limiting oxygen index, UL-94 and cone calorimeter experiments. The protective…
Poly( L ‐lactide) (PLLA)/poly( D ‐lactide) (PDLA)/clay nanocomposites are prepared via simple melt blending method at PDLA loadings from 5 to 20 wt%. Formation of the stereocomplex crystals in the nanocomposites is confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry and wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD). The internal str…
Abstract Substantial improvements of the absolute photoluminescence quantum yield (QY) for surfactant‐free silicon nanocrystals (Si‐ncs) by atmospheric pressure microplasma 3‐dimensional surface engineering are reported. The effect of surface characteristics on carrier multiplication mechanisms is explored using trans…
Snake grass fibers are subjected to various chemical surface modifications such as alkali, benzoyl peroxide, benzoyl chloride, potassium permanganate and stearic acid. These fibers are utilized to fabricate the longitudinal oriented fiber-reinforced composites at 40% weight fraction of fiber. The mechanical properties…
ABSTRACT In recent years, there have been significant interests among scientists around the world to design smart coatings that combine the standard desirable mechanical and chemical resistance properties with additional functionalities such as oil and water repellency, hydrophobicity, self‐cleaning and gas barrier pr…
Precise spatial control of materials is the key capability of engineering their optical, electronic, and mechanical properties. However, growth of graphene on Cu was revealed to be seed-induced two-dimensional (2D) growth, limiting the synthesis of complex graphene spatial structures. In this research, we report the g…
