Product miniaturization has become a trending technology in a broad range of industries and its development is being pushed by the requirements for complexity and resolution of micromanufactured products. However, there still exists a gap in the manufacturing spectrum for complex three-dimensional (3D) structure gener…
Using the first-principles calculations, the structural features, mechanical properties, formation enthalpies, electronic properties and hardness of osmium carbides with various stoichometries have been investigated systematically. The structural stability, thermodynamic stability together with mechanical stability sh…
ABSTRACT Novel all‐polyamide composite (APC) has been developed to replace traditional coated fabrics with good interfacial adhesion and enhanced recyclability. The composite is fully recyclable since it contains no other materials except polyamide. APC was prepared by partially dissolving a polyamide fabric by treatm…
In this work, titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanofibers were synthesized by a combination of electrospinning and calcinations process using a solution that contained poly(vinyl pyrolidone)(PVP) and titanium isopropoxide. Titanium isopropoxide/PVP composite fibers were investigated at different titanium isopropoxide concentra…
Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) composites containing graphene oxide (GO) functionalized with PVA were synthesized via the esterification of the carboxylic groups of GO. The presence of PVA-grafted GO (PVA-g-GO) in the PVA matrix induced strong interactions between the chains of the PVA matrix and allowed the PVA-g-GO to be…
We present a comprehensive study of the hydrostatic pressure dependence of the vibrational properties of tetracene using periodic density-functional theory (DFT) within the local density approximation (LDA). Despite the lack of van der Waals dispersion forces in LDA we find good agreement with experiment and are able…
In this study, the influence of wood fiber content (40, 50 and 60 wt.%) and coupling agent concentration (3 and 5 wt.%) on the mechanical properties of wood-plastic composites (WPCs) was investigated. Two types of plastic (high-density-polyethylene (HDPE) and recycled high-density-polyethylene (rHDPE)) were used as po…
Second-phase particles and small porosities are known to favour fatigue crack initiation in high-strength aluminium alloys 2050-T8 and 7050-T7451. Using high-resolution X-ray tomography (320 nm voxel size), with Paganin reconstruction algorithms, the probability that large clusters of particles contain porosities coul…
PbTe1-x Se x alloys are of special interest to thermoelectric applications. Inelastic x-ray scattering determination of phonon dispersion and lifetimes along the high symmetry directions for PbTe1-x Se x alloys are presented. By comparing with calculated results based on the virtual crystal model calculations combined…
The Stokes and the anti-Stokes Raman spectra from the high energy carbon-carbon stretching modes in graphene and diamond are studied, with a focus on their intensity dependence on the excitation laser power. For diamond, the experiment was performed on a 50 μm slice of chemical vapour deposition grown single crystal u…
Bi2Te3 thermoelectric thin films were deposited on the flexible polyimide substrates by RF magnetron co-sputtering of a Bi and a Te targets. The influence of the substrate temperature and RF power on the microstructure, chemical composition, and the thermoelectric properties of the sputtered films was investigated by…
The nonzero thickness of single-layer (SL) ${\mathrm{MoS}}_{2}$ manifests in electron states forming classes of states that are even and odd with respect to reflections through the central plane. These states are energetically well separated: In particular, we show that pristine SL ${\mathrm{MoS}}_{2}$ exhibits two ba…
Recently, a novel method emerged to determine the oxygen storage degree of three way catalysts (TWC) by a microwave-based method. Up to now, this method has been investigated only in lab-scale reactors or under steady state conditions. This work expands those initial studies. A TWC-coated gasoline particulate filter w…
Trapping of interstitial (e.g. carbon) atoms is driven by the reduction in energy in the system. Diffusion of interstitials, together with their trapping in dislocation cores and/or grain boundaries, is studied by the thermodynamic extremal principle. In addition to the total Gibbs energy, a well-established formulati…
Zwitterionic polycarboxybetaine (PCB) materials have attracted noticeable interest for biomedical applications, such as wound healing/tissue engineering, medical implants, and biosensors, due to their excellent antifouling properties and design flexibility. Antifouling materials with buffering capability are particula…
Nanostructured polymer-semiconductor hybrid materials such as ZnS-poly(vinyl alcohol) (ZnS-PVA), ZnS-starch and ZnS-hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (Zns-HPMC) are synthesized by a facile aqueous route. The obtained nanocomposites are characterized using various techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electr…
Nanoporous gold (NPG) has been synthesized by electrochemical de-alloying a new precursor, amorphous Au30Cu38Ag7Pd5Si20 (at.%), starting from melt-spun ribbons. Ligaments ranging from 75 to 210 nm depending on the de-alloying time were obtained. Analytical and electrochemical evidence showed the ligaments contain resi…
We report the thermal conductivity and specific heat measurements at temperatures down to 0.3 and 0.4 K, respectively, for synthetic Cu–S based minerals, namely, tetrahedrite Cu10Zn2Sb4S13 with rattling Cu atoms and colusite Cu23Zn3V2Sn6S32 without the rattling mode. Because both are semiconducting and diamagnetic, th…
We present an equivalent conductivity method for analyzing metasurface-based structures, which relies on the derivation of equivalent conductivity containing the properties such as the geometry, periodicity, and the surrounding materials. Using this approach, one can calculate the equivalent conductivity for a single…
Fibrous proteins, such as silk, elastin and collagen are finding broad impact in biomaterial systems for a range of biomedical and industrial applications. Some of the key advantages of biosynthetic fibrous proteins compared to synthetic polymers include the tailorability of sequence, protein size, degradation pattern…
