Flattened carbon nanotubes (flCNTs) are a promising form of composite material reinforcement because their capacity for self-assembly and packing efficiency, which could ultimately lead to improved thermo-mechanical properties relative current state-of-the-art materials. An important design parameter materials is the choice polymer matrix , as characteristics reinforcement/polymer interface can...

Even before considering their introduction into the mouth, choice of materials for optimization prosthesis depends on specific parameters such as biocompatibility, solidity, resistance, and longevity. In first part this two-part review, we approach various mechanical characteristics that affect choice, which are closely related to manufacturing process. Among currently available, it is mainly p...

The incorporation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) within polymer hosts offers a great platform for the development advanced thermoelectric (TE) composite materials. Over years, several CNT/polymer formulations have been investigated on an effort to maximize TE performance. Meanwhile, studies focused decay dynamics charged excitons CNTs itself and therefrom derived structures, aiming investigate life...

Poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) is a high-performance thermoplastic with distinctive combination of corrosion resistance, thermo-oxidative stability and outstanding physical mechanical properties at high temperatures. A pertinent step forward in the development this has been inclusion electrically conductive fillers to expand its functionality. In review an overview research on PEEK composites ...
