polyvinyl butyral (pvb) was synthesized by condensation reaction of polyvinyl alcohol (pva) with butanal in aqueous medium containing an effective emulsifier and an inorganic acid as catalyst. the product was characterized by, ir, tg and dtg techniques. percentage of vinyl alcohol groups in the pvb was determined by a chemical method according to a standard method. some clear and soft film samp...

In this work, polypyrrole/ZnO nanocomposite (PPy/ZnO NC) was produced through synthesis of polypyrrole polymer in the presence of ZnO nanoparticles. The corrosion behavior of polyvinyl butyral coatings without and with different weight percentages of nanocomposite on the surface of 7075 Al alloy was investigated in 3.5% NaCl solution at different immersion times using electrochemical impedance ...

Abstract Corrosion and icing are common problems in aerospace wind power fields. In order to improve the thermal hydrophobic properties of epoxy-based anticorrosive coatings expand application various working environments, modified graphene oxide (GO) was introduced into prepare GO/polyvinyl butyral/epoxy resin nanocomposite coatings. The preparation process coating optimized by response surfac...

In the present work, four polymeric nanocomposite PNC coatings were prepared with different concentrations of yttrium aluminum garnet nanoparticles YAG-NPs in polyvinyl butyral PVB matrix. The corrosion protection of the PNC coatings applied on the carbon steel surface was investigated in 1.0 M HCl solution by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy EIS. The YAG-NPs were synthesized by pulse ele...

morphological changes in polyvinyl butyral (pvb) electrospun nanofibres can be acquired by preparation of pvb spinning solution in different solvents.  accordingly, three solvents, including ethyl alcohol, n-butanol and isopropanol, with diverse physical properties (e.g. boiling point, density, dipole moment and dielectric constant) were used to prepare polyvinyl butyral (pvb) spinning solution...

Porous polyvinyl butyral and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)polystyrene sulfonate fibers (porous PPPS-f) non-porous PPPS-f solid fibres were fabricated via electrospinning. The microwave absorption characteristics investigated for single bi-layered structures.

Micromarkers with five photoluminescence colors were developed as tracers for shadowing pursuits. The markers are colorless powders with particle diameters of several tens to several hundreds of micrometers, prepared using a cryogenic sample crusher. They were visualized using red, green, yellow, magenta or cyan photoluminescence under ultraviolet light at approximately 365 nm. The markers were...
