The Ti-doped SnO2(110) surface has been investigated by using first-principles method with a slab model. The geometrical optimizations and band-structure calculations have been performed for four possible doping models. Our results indicate that the substitution of Ti for sixfold-coordinated Sn atom at the top layer i…

Abstract In this work, composites of an EVA polymer matrix and short sisal fiber were characterized. The physical‐morphological as well as chemical interactions between EVA and sisal were investigated. When the samples were prepared in the presence of dicumyl peroxide, the results suggest that crosslinking of EVA as w…

Abstract In this work, we synthesized poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/expanded graphite (EG) nanocomposites by a new polymerization method. The volume electrical conductivity of the nanocomposite prepared by this way is very high (when the content of EG is about 8 wt %, the conductivity could reach 60 S/cm). The stru…

This paper introduces a process to synthesize well aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) from ethanol flames by using a uniform electric field generated from a DC power supply. It has been found that (1) comparing with the other processes a small electric field is enough to align CNTs; (2) the synthesis process becomes more…
