CdS nanoparticles with different sizes ranging from 2.5 nm to 300 nm and nanorods with aspect ratio -32 were synthesized by simple solvothermal process with a view to explore the effect of size and shape on the optical properties of these nanoforms. Solvent, temperature and the Cd source played important role in deter…
The objective of this study (Part II) paper is to develop a dry actuator for wider application than the wet actuator. To form a dry actuator, a carbon nanofiber (CNF) actuator is based on a solid polymer electrolyte (SPE). The SPE film is prepared from polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), an ion-exchange material, a plasti…
Abstract We have previously presented the effect of adhesion-promoter resins, used in the belt compound of tires, on the mechanical properties of the rubber compounds. We have also proposed that the presence of certain adhesion-promoting resins could lead to the formation of a copper sulfide adhesion layer that might…
ZnO thin films were deposited at different repetition rates of 5 Hz and 10 Hz by pulsed laser deposition. X-ray diffraction (XRD) full widths at half maximum (FWHMs) of (002) ZnO peak in ZnO thin film deposited at 5 Hz and 10 Hz was 0.22 and <TEX>$0.26^{\circ}$</TEX>, respectively. The grain size of ZnO thin film depo…
We consider the ESR of Co2+ in different environments: in an regular octahedron (Co2+ in a MgO crystal), in a deformed octahedron (Co2+ in single crystals and powder samples of NH4NiPO4.6H2O) or in a trigonal bipyramid (Co2+ in powders of Co2(OH)PO4 and Co2(OH)AsO4). We study the effect of the non-cubic crystal fields…
On-line partial discharge (PD) measurements are an efficient method for detecting certain insulation defects of cables. These include defects in cable joints and terminations, and defects due to mechanical impact. Noninvasive, efficient, and widely applicable, portable on-line PD measurement techniques are strongly fa…
The adsorption and covalent immobilization of human immunoglobulin (HIgG) and lysozyme (LYZ) on surface-modified poly(tert-butyl methacrylate) PtBMA films have been evaluated using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), ellipsometry and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Surface modification of PtBMA (UV irradiation) aff…
The long-capillary method was used to measure chemical diffusion in molten AlNiCe alloys. The interdiffusion coefficients were determined for a mean concentration of Al87Ni10Ce3 at 1273 K and for a mean concentration of Al77Ni20Ce3 at 1373 K. The absence of major convection disturbances and of macro-segregation was de…
This work investigates the application of artificial neural network modeling (ANN) to model the relationships between fiber, yarn, and fabric properties and the pilling propensity of single jersey and rib pure wool knitted fabrics based on the ICI Pilling Box method. Validation of the model on an independent validatio…
O desempenho e o custo de compósitos podem ser alterados por hibridização e, neste sentido, é relativamente comum o uso combinado de fibras e reforços minerais no desenvolvimento destes materiais. No presente trabalho o desempenho mecânico de compósitos poliéster insaturado/ tecidos híbridos sisal-vidro foram investig…
We have performed photoelectron emission microscopy measurements with hard X-rays (HX-PEEM) and have shown that HX-PEEM has a spatial resolution higher than 106 nm for observing the sample surface and can detect signals from a Au layer buried under a 50-nm-thick Co layer. These results mean that HX-PEEM has a probing…
A novel preparation technique for a nanostructured anode for a solid oxide fuel cell is investigated. By mixing nanometer-sized NiO and YSZ powders in a pH-controlled aqueous media, a fine mixture of nanoparticles is successfully obtained through heterocoagulation. The anode prepared from thus prepared mixture has a l…
The inhibitive effect of thiosemicarbazide on the corrosion of cold rolled carbon steel in acidic media has been studied. For this investigation, a standard potentiodynamic polarisation technique was used to determine the corrosion rate and the inhibition efficiency and also to find out which adsorption isotherm gover…
Electrical transport behavior of Ca3MnxCo4−xO9 (0⩽x⩽1.28), prepared by sol-gel process, was investigated at temperatures from 300K down to 5K. The results indicate that dc conductivity σ and carrier concentration decay exponentially with decreasing temperature below ∼75K and ∼100K for Ca3MnxCo4−xO9 with x=0 and 0.03,…
We are continuing an effort to quantitatively measure the influence of processing variables on the structure of polypropylene melt blown webs. In this paper, we report experimental measurements of the influence of die-to-collector distance, primary airflow rate, die temperature, collector speed and resin throughput ra…
The synthesis of ultrafine magnetic material with large saturation magnetisation and high coercivity has received much attention, owing to its wide applications. The reduction of nanocrystalline Fe 2 O 3 into metallic iron was studied. The iron oxide precursor was synthesised by thermal evaporation of iron acetate and…
Sm Co 7 − x Cr x (x=0–0.6) magnets have been synthesized by mechanical alloying and subsequent annealing. A small amount of Cr favors the formation of Th2Ni17-type 2:17 phase and increasing the Cr content can extend the temperature range in which the hexagonal 2:17 phase remains stable. The coercivities of the SmCo7−x…
Films with specific nanoroughness were designed by "virtual coating" to yield ultrahydrophobicity while the light scatter remained below an application-relevant threshold. Examples of coating experiments demonstrate the realization of predicted properties.
This paper describes the first attempt in fabrication of three-dimensional macroporous composites of chitosan and natural coralline material with pore sizes of 300-400 microm, exceeding the upper pore size limit of 250 microm obtained with freeze-dried chitosan-based scaffolds. Natural coral particulates of less than…
The doping distribution of Tm3+ ions in a transparent oxyfluoride glass ceramic has been investigated. Optical absorption, luminescence, and excitation measurements have been performed in order to determine the environment in which Tm3+ ions and the infrared emissions they give rise to are located. An interesting resu…
