We present a general study on a high performance supercapacitor based on intercalated reduced graphene oxide with carbon black nanoparticles. Graphene oxide sheets were synthesized by oxidation and exfoliation of natural graphite and were reduced using hydroiodic acid in the presence of carbon black nanoparticles. Graphene paper was fabricated by one-step procedure via simultaneous reducing and...

To prevent serious electromagnetic interference, a single-layer and double layer wave-absorbing coating employing complex absorbents composed of carbon black with epoxy resin as matrix was prepared. The morphologies of carbon black /epoxy composites were characterized by scanning electron microscope  and atomic force microscope, respectively. The carbon black  particles exhibit obvious polyarom...

the present study aimed at evaluating the effect of aerobic exercise in carbon black particulates air pollution on tlr4 and tnf-α gene expression in male rats. 24 male wistar rats (mean body mass 279.29+26.97 gr) were randomly divided into 4 groups: a) control, b) aerobic exercise, c) pollution, d) exercise+pollution. a particulates injector and falounak chamber were used to expose the rats to ...

the enhanced dispersion of organophilic layered silicates improves the mechanical properties of polymer/ silicate composites. in this work, a hybrid filler system consisting of cloisite 15a organoclay (oc) and carbon black (cb) was used to improve the properties of the tire tread compounds. the physical and mechanical properties of compounds were assessed by measurement of their cure properties...

one of the most important stages in sugar industry that making wastewater and contamination is the water obtained to washing of co2 in mazoot furnace and related pumps. amount of water consumption in this stage is about 30 to 35 percent of weight of sugar beet, so amount of this stream is considerable. mixing of carbon black and water compose the colloid in liquid phase. these colloids do not s...

Polysulfide is well known elastomer for use in aerospace applications due to providing flexible coating and chemically resistant sealants. In this work, the effects of carbon black content on curing behavior of polysulfide elastomer were investigated and Rheological properties for samples with different filler content 15, 20 and 25 phr were evaluated by rheometric mechanical spectrometer RMS. A...

this research work is devoted to the investigation on the use of silica on the fatigue-to-failure property of a tire tread compound. a reference compound was frst designed in which 60 phr carbon black was used as the reinforcing fller. while keeping the total of fller content to be constant as 60 phr, three additional compounds with 5, 10 and 20 phr silica were then manufactured. the classical ...

Atmospheric black carbon has long been recognized as a public health and environmental concern. More recently, black carbon has been identified as a major, ongoing contributor to anthropogenic climate change, thus making historical emission inventories of black carbon an essential tool for assessing past climate sensitivity and modeling future climate scenarios. Current estimates of black carbo...

In this paper, new various morphologies of boron carbide were successfully synthesized using carbon black, activated carbon and boron oxide precursors as well as using cobalt nanoparticles as catalysts. Almost the whole morphology of synthesized boron carbide are consisted of smooth nanowires and nanobelts. With decreasing the carbon black particles size from 29 nm to 13 nm (29, 23, 17 and 13),...
