Novel Electroceramic: Polymer Composites - Preparation, Properties and Applications

Polymer/Carbon-Based Hybrid Aerogels: Preparation, Properties and Applications

Aerogels are synthetic porous materials derived from sol-gel materials in which the liquid component has been replaced with gas to leave intact solid nanostructures without pore collapse. Recently, aerogels based on natural or synthetic polymers, called polymer or organic aerogels, have been widely explored due to their porous structures and unique properties, such as high specific surface area...

Preparation and Properties of Magnesium Porous Materials for Medical Applications

Magnesium is a biocompatible and biodegradable metal which possesses suitable mechanical properties for load-bearing applications in orthopaedics. Moreover, magnesium ions, the products of magnesium corrosion, improve growth of the new bone tissue. Implementation of the porosity into these materials compromises values of mechanical properties closer to the values of nature bone and allows the i...

mechanical properties of non-woven polyester fibers and polymer-modified bitumen composites

blown bitumen (110/10) was mixed with heavy vacuum slops (h.v.s), 60/70 penetration grade bitumen and recycled isotactic polypropylene (ipp) at different levels. the resulting resins were used to impregnate non-woven poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibers to form composites. the modulus and penetration grade of the resulting bituminous resins were determined. it was found that these bituminous res...
