In this research, myristic-palmitic acid(MA-PA)/ nano silicon dioxide(nano-SiO2) was modified by adding carbide(nano-SiC) with high thermal conductivity. The MA-PA/nano-SiO2 composite phase change material (PCM) prepared impregnating the MA-PA eutectic mixture as PCM into nano-SiO2 supporting material. Nano- SiC added to improve conductivity of PCM. Leakage experiments demonstrated that optimal...

Assisted by the aerosol co-deposition approach, Prussian blue (PB)-TiO2 composite film can be in-situ formed in one step. The architecture of this film is constructed by two layers: PB-TiO2 nano-particles as a ground layer and individual PB micro-cubes as a top layer. Together with the strong electrocatalytic ability from regular PB morphology, TiO2 can denote its high catalysis in H2O2 detecti...

Polyethersulfone (PES) is a common material used for ultrafiltration (UF) membranes, which has good chemical resistance, high mechanical properties, and wide temperature tolerances. The hydrophobic property of the PES membrane seriously limits its application. Cellulose fibrils are composed of micro-sized and nano-sized elements, which have high hydrophilicity, strength, and biodegradation. A c...

The 3D printed antibacterial polymer products were rapidly sintered to obtain by selective laser sintering with highly dispersed Nano-silver modified Kaolin powder and polyamide/polypropylene composite engineering material. preparation method of not only shortens the period, but also guarantees precision quality product as well slow-release function Nano-silver.

Poly(o-anisidine) molybdophosphate was expediently obtained by sol-gel mixing of Poly(o-anisidine) into the inorganic matrices of molybdophosphate, which was allowed to react with silver nitrate to the formation of poly(o-anisidine) molybdophosphate embedded silver nano composite. The composite was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, UV-Vis Spectr...

The photocatalytic degradation of gaseous toluene was investigated on TiO2 nanoparticles coated on reduced graphene oxide. Reduced graphene oxideTiO2 composite (RGO-TiO2) was synthesized via two step processes. The prepared RGO-TiO2 composite was characterized using SEM, XRD, and UV-visible spectra. A significant increase in light absorption to visible light was observed by RGO-TiO2 compared wi...

In the present study, small scale effect on critical buckling loads of triangular nano- composite plates under uniform in-plane compression is studied. Since at nano-scale the structure of the plate is discrete, the size dependent nonlocal elasticity theory is employed to develop an equivalent continuum plate model for this nanostructure incorporating the changes in its mechanical behavior. The...
