Ex-situ sensitization of ordered TiO2 nanotubes with CdS quantum dots
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
Ordered titania nanotubes (pore diameter approximate to 90 nm and wall thickness approximate to 10 nm) were obtained by the anodization technique and used for the ex-situ deposition of cadmium sulfide quantum dots (CdS ...
Lead immobilization by geopolymers based on mechanically activated fly ash
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
In this paper, the effectiveness of geopolymers based on initial and mechanically activated fly ash in immobilization of lead was investigated. Fly ash (FA) was firstly mechanically and then alkali activated at room ...
Polycrystalline (Y0.7Gd0.3)(2)O-3:Eu3+ ceramics fabricated by Spark Plasma Sintering: Densification and microstructure development
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Using Spark Plasma Sintering it is possible to produce polycrystalline ceramics of very fine microstructure and good mechanical properties. This work presents the fabrication of such ceramics using Eu3+-doped (Y0.7Gd0.3)(2)O-3 ...
Enhanced thermo-mechanical properties of acrylic resin reinforced with silanized alumina whiskers
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
The acrylic resin reinforced with silanized alumina whiskers with self-healing (SH) agents was synthesized. The self-healing system consisted of microcapsules with the healing agent dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) and modified ...
Conventional and spark-plasma sintering of cordierite powders synthesized by sol-gel methods
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
Cordierite powders synthesized by colloidal and alkoxide sol-gel methods were conventionally and spark-plasma sintered. The powders for the sintering investigations were obtained by calcination of the gels at a temperature ...
Composite nanostructured hydroxyapatite/yttrium stabilized zirconia dental inserts - The processing and application as dentin substitutes
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
The objective of the study was to process nano-structured hydroxyapatite/yttrium-stabilized zirconia bioceramic and to investigate the possibilities of its application as dentin replacement in the form of dental inserts. ...
The dependence of the photocatalytic activity of TiO2/carbon nanotubes nanocomposites on the modification of the carbon nanotubes
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Nanostructural TiO2/modified multi-wall carbon nanotubes photocatalysts were prepared by hydrolysis of Ti(iso-OC3H7)(4) providing chemical bonding of anatase TiO2 nanoparticles onto oxidized- or amino-functionalized ...
Visible-light active mesoporous, nanocrystalline N,S-doped and co-doped titania photocatalysts synthesized by non-hydrolytic sol-gel route
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Visible-light active mesoporous N,S-doped and co-doped anatase TiO2 powders were synthesized by non-hydrolytic sol-gel route, starting from TiCl4 and Ti((OPr)-Pr-i)(4) dissolved in cyclohexane or dimethyl sulfoxide, later ...
Highly ordered macroporous gamma-alumina prepared by a modified sol-gel method with a PMMA microsphere template for enhanced Pb2+, Ni2+ and Cd2+ removal
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The adsorption performance of three-dimensionally ordered macroporous (3DOM) gamma-alumina was investigated for enhanced Pb2+, Ni2+ and Cd2+ removal. The synthesis was based on a modified sol-gel method using a colloidal ...
Substrate preheating and structural properties of power plasma sprayed hydroxyapatite coatings
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of substrate preheating on the structural properties of hydroxyapatite coatings (HACs) deposited by using the high power (52 kW) laminar plasma jet. The deposition ...
