Preparation of Nitrogen-Doped Graphene By Solvothermal Process as Supporting Material for Fuel Cell Catalysts

Development of efficient electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is one of the most important issues for optimizing the performance of fuel cells and metal-air batteries. The introduction of nitrogen into carbon nanostructures has created new pathways for the development of non-precious electrocatalysts in fuel cells. In this work, nitrogen-doped graphene (NG) was synthesized by a ...

Evaluation of Alternative Types of Supporting Materials for Betel (Piper betle L.) Cultivation

A study was conducted in Intercropping at Betel Research Station, to evaluate alternative types of supporting materials for betel (Piper betle L.) cultivation. Coir ropes were the most suitable supporting material to achieve higher yield and quality betel. The durability of coir ropes was high in comparison to other supporting materials and the use of coir ropes as a supporting material was the...

Supporting Polyvinylchloride Polymeric Blend Membrane with Coated Woven Fabric

Blend reverse osmosis membranes were fabricated using polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with cellulose acetate (CA) as polymer blends. Tetrahydrofuran (THF) and N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) were used as solvents. The membrane polymer solution was cast on a coated woven fabric support material. The prepared membranes have been characterized by SEM and mechanical properties. SEM r...

Regeneration of hemisectioned spinal cords with and without supporting materials.

Nerve regeneration in hemisectioned spinal cords with and without supporting materials was examined in rats. Cell migration and newly formed capillaries surrounded by laminin-positive materials appeared at the lesioned site 7 days postoperatively. Reactive astrocytes increased at the lesioned site and extended into the spinal cord within 3 weeks. However, cell reactions decreased by 4 weeks and...
