various kinds of chemicals are used in papermaking to enhance paper properties and to improve efficiency of the production process. in the presence of cationic starch as an anionic charge catcher, effects of nano silica/cationic polyacrylamide complex on retention, drainage time, water volume drained by dynamic drainage jar and properties of paper recycled from old corrugated container were inv...

In this paper, the study of efficient bonding characteristics of AA6014 and AA1050 metal strips is carried out for Accumulative Roll Bonding (ARB) process. Among various Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) techniques, ARB process is widely used due to its ability to produce ultra-fine grained ( UFG) or nanostructured bulk material. It has been observed that, if the experimental pressure and corres...

In this work, the synthesis of porous structure of cadmium oxide with multilayered sheet-like morphology in nano-meter size using adipic acid as soft template by solvothermal/thermal decomposition process is reported. Chemical analyses exhibited that the formation of porous sheet-like structure is originated from bidentate coordination mode of adipate units to Cd-center. It was found that the c...

Synthesis of nano-scale fast ion conducting cubic Li Report Title A solution-based process was investigated for synthesizing cubic Li7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO), which is known to exhibit the unprecedented combination of fast ionic conductivity, and stability in air and against Li. Sol–gel chemistry was developed to prepare solid metal–oxide networks consisting of 10 nm cross-links that formed the cubic ...

Using molecular dynamics simulations, we investigated an integrated bio-nano interface consisting of a β-sheet protein stacked onto graphene. We found that the stacking assembly of the model protein on graphene could be controlled by water molecules. The interlayer water filled within interstices of the bio-nano interface could suppress the molecular vibration of surface groups on protein, and ...

Although silicon technology has been the main driving force for miniaturizing device dimensions to improve cost and performance, the current application of Si to soft electronics (flexible and stretchable electronics) is limited due to material rigidity. As a result, various prospective materials have been proposed to overcome the rigidity of conventional Si technology. In particular, nano-carb...
