Improving Radar Absorbing Capability of Polystyrene Nanocomposites: Preparation and Investigation of Microwave Absorbing Properties

Microwave absorbing materials are usually designed to solve protection against electromagnetic interference in wireless communication systems and high frequency circuit mechanisms. In this research polystyrene (PS) nanocomposites containing various nano-fillers were successfully synthesized. The novelty of this work is comparing of three various nanostructures: non-metallic conductive graphene ...

Isotherm Studies for Performance Evaluation of Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) Based Polymer Composite Nanofiltration Membranes for Desalination

Composite Nanofiltration membranes were fabricated by incorporating Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) and Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) membranes. A suspension was prepared by dispersing CNT (30 minutes of sonication) in Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) solvent for 0.5 mg/ml. This suspension after vacuum filtration dispersed over PVDF membrane of pore size 0.22μm. Excess DMSO was removed by washing using Ethano...

Microwave-Absorbing Properties of Rice Starch

In the food industry, research into the characteristics of microwave-heated materials has focused on dielectric properties. However, the lack of studies on microwave-absorbing properties has hindered the application of microwave technology. The aim of the present study was to investigate the microwave-absorbing properties of rice starch. It should be noted that this was the first time that the ...

A thermally sensitive energy-absorbing composite functionalized by nanoporous carbon

Composite materials, especially polymer matrix composites, have been intensively studied for energy absorption applications. When the temperature is close to or higher than the glass transition temperature (Tg), the polymer matrix is usually viscoelastic. With an external loading, either dynamic or quasi-static, the relaxation of the network polymer chains would cause a considerable energy diss...
