This study investigates the separation based on adsorption of the binary gas mixture of hydrogen withbiogas (gases: CO2, CH4, O2, N2) and inert gases (gases: He, Ne, and Ar) using single-walled ((7,7), (15,15),(29,29), (44,44), (58,58) and (73,73) SWBNNTs), double-walled ((11,11)@(15,15), (7,7)@(22,22) DWBNNTs)and triple walled ((8,8)@(11,11)@(15,15) and (7,7)@(15,15)@(22,22) ...

In order to improve the yield of BN nanotubes prepared by ball milling annealing method, a small amount magnesium was used as catalyst synthesized boron nitride nanotubes. The results showed that with high yield, purity and uniform size were synthesized. morphology BNNTs is bamboo-like cylinder-shaped. diameter them about 50 150 nm most are 100nm. length dozens microns. existence end particles ...

Single-wall boron nitride nanotubes samples synthesized by laser vaporization of a hexagonal BN target under a nitrogen atmosphere are studied by UV and visible Raman spectroscopy. We show that resonant conditions are necessary for investigating phonon modes of BNNTs. Raman excitation in the UV (229 nm) provides preresonant conditions, allowing the identification of the A1 tangential mode at 13...

there is a worldwide interest in using fibers of different types in concrete mixtures. in this regard, as the use of pet fibers has gradually increased during the last decade, this study aims to investigate the effects of pet fibers on the mechanical properties of hardened concrete and the workability of fresh concrete. to this end, different contents of pet fibers (pc= %0, %0.5, %1 and %1.5) a...

Influence of Aluminum, Gallium, Indium- Doping on the Boron-Nitride Nanotubes (BNNTs) investigated with density functional theory (DFT) and Hartreefock (HF) methods. For this purpose, the chemical shift of difference atomic nucleus was studied using the gauge included atomic orbital (GIAO) approch. In the following, structural parameter values, electrostatic potential, thermodynamic parameters,...

This study proposes boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) reinforced hydroxyapatite (HA) as a novel composite material for orthopedic implant applications. The spark plasma sintered (SPS) composite structure shows higher density compared to HA. Minimal lattice mismatch between HA and BNNT leads to coherent bonding and strong interface. HA-4 wt% BNNT composite offers excellent mechanical properties-120%...

In this work the fracture toughness of epoxy resin has been improved through the addition of low loading of single part and hybrid nanofiller materials. Functionalised multi-walled carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs) was used as single filler, increased the critical strain energy release rate, GIC, by 57% compared to the neat epoxy, at only 0.1 wt% filler content. Importantly, no degradation in the ten...

the idea of combining low weight and good mechanical properties has led to efforts to develop a new light fiber/metal laminate (fml) in the last decade. fmls are hybrid composites consisting of alternating thin layers of metal sheets and fiber-reinforced epoxy prepregs. in this study, the effect of fiber orientation on tensile properties of this material is investigated both analytically and ex...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of experimental determination of fiber bed permeability variation with porosity. Flow measurement experiments were designed to measure fiber mat permeability for fiber beds with various fiber volume fractions. Woven fiberglass, chopped fiberglass, and carbon fiber mats were used as reinforcements. The effects of reinforcement type and porosity on fiber ...
