Core@double‐shell structured multifunctional phase change microcapsules based on modified graphene oxide Pickering emulsion
New multifunctional phase change microcapsules with paraffin (Pn) as core and GO and lead tungstate (PbWO4) as double‐shell were designed by modified GO Pickering emulsion, and the effect of GO...
Thermally drawn biodegradable fibers with tailored topography for biomedical applications
There is a growing demand for polymer fiber scaffolds for biomedical applications and tissue engineering. Biodegradable polymers such as polycaprolactone have attracted particular attention due to...
Rheological study of EPDM/silicone rubber blends phase inversion and characterization of resultant mechanical and thermal properties
This study was committed to the characterization of the rheological, thermal, mechanical, and morphological properties of ethylene‐propylene‐diene monomer (EPDM)/silicone rubber (SR) blends....
Acrylic‐based fire‐retardant coatings for steel protection: Employing the concept of in situ ceramization
Traditional intumescent coatings are widely used as passive fire‐protective coatings for steel structures as they are capable of expanding in the range of 20–50 times the original...
Thermomechanical and tribological properties of spark plasma sintered bearing steel/cBN(Ni) composites for engineering applications
This study attempt to investigate microstructural, thermomechanical and tribological properties of low-temperature sintered cBN and Ni-coated cBN reinforced bearing steel composites. Ultrasonic probe...
Ultra-light, heat-resistant, flexible and thermal insulation graphene-fluororubber foam prepared by using N2 as a blowing agent
Developing light-weight fluororubber foam is a challenging task mainly because of its high density and the easy shrinkage of foam. A promising approach to overcome this challenge is the use of...
Adsorption of Cu (II)and Co (II) from aqueous solution using lignosulfonate/chitosan adsorbent
In practical application, the adsorption capacity, adsorption kinetics, recycling and production cost of adsorbent affect the application of adsorbent. In this study, porous lignosulfonate/chitosan...
Thermally conductive and electrically insulating alumina-coated graphite/phthalonitrile composites with thermal stabilities
Alumina-coated graphite (Al2O3@graphite) core-shell particles were firstly synthesized by a liquid-phase chemical precipitation with the aid of sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SDS) surfactant using an...
Innovative sandwich panels made of wood bio-concrete and sisal fiber reinforced cement composites
This paper presents the results of the development of innovative sandwich panels made by combining wood bio-concretes and long sisal fibers reinforced composites. An experimental study of the wood...
