Magnesium hydroxide nanostructures as an effective flame retardant were synthesized by a facile and rapid microwave reaction. The effect of different surfactants such as cationic, anionic and polymeric on the morphology of magnesium hydroxide nanostructures was investigated. Nanostructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform in...

Icing on surfaces such as cables or high-voltage insulators may often lead to severe safety issues power outages in cold winter conditions. Conventional methods used tackle icing problems include mechanical deicing, where the ice is scraped broken, and chemical deicers ethylene glycol are used. However, best approach addressing these prevent formation first place. Research past few decades have...

Abstract Advanced materials with various micro-/nanostructures have attracted plenty of attention for decades in energy storage devices such as rechargeable batteries (ion- or sulfur based batteries) and supercapacitors. To improve the electrochemical performance batteries, it is uttermost important to develop advanced electrode materials. Moreover, cathode material also that restricts efficien...

tm3+, yb3+ and tm3+/yb3+ doped lavo4 nanostructures were synthe-sized for the first time by using the hydrothermal method with the aid of la(ch3co2)3 as  lanthanum source in presence of oleic acid as surfactant. the products were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), transmission electron microscopy (tem), photoluminescence (pl) spectroscopy and uv–vis di...
