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 ...
Preparation of low cost alumina nanofibers via electrospinning of aluminium chloride hydroxide/poly (vinyl alcohol) solution
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
Alumina nanofibers are very suitable materials for use as reinforcement in a great variety of high performance composite materials. Nanosized alumina fibers were prepared from the aluminum chloride hydroxide/poly (vinyl ...
Crystallization and sinterability of glass-ceramics in the system La2O3-SrO-B2O3
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Glasses with a constant B2O3 and an increasing La2O3 content in the system La2O3-SrO-B2O3 were obtained by the usual melt quenching procedure. The crystallization and sinterability of the glasses were investigated by hot ...
Preparation and characterization of poly(vinyl butyral) electrospun nanocomposite fibers reinforced with ultrasonically functionalized sepiolite
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
This study presents an investigation of the effects of the processing conditions on the uniformity, morphology and structure of patterned nanofibrous mats of electrospun poly(vinyl butyral)/sepiolite (PVB/Sep) nanocomposite ...
Comparative study of CeO2 nanopowders obtained by the hydrothermal method from various precursors
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
The effects of common precursors used in the synthesis of CeO2 nanopowders were investigated, and the structural and spectral properties of the resulting products were compared. Two cerium (III) salts, i.e., Ce(NO3)(3)center ...
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 ...
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 ...
Influence of different pore-forming agents on wollastonite microstructures and adsorption capacities
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
In this study, porous macro- and micro-cellular wollastonite-based ceramics was synthesized. A ceramic precursor, methylhydrocyclosiloxane, together with micro-sized CaCO3, was used as a starting material. After 20 min of ...
Mg/Cu co-substituted hydroxyapatite - Biocompatibility, mechanical properties and antimicrobial activity
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
The aim of this study was to improve the mechanical properties and to optimize antimicrobial activity of hydroxyapatite (HAP) by simultaneous doping with Mg and Cu ions in order to obtain material that would be able to ...
Bioactive glass-ceramics prepared by powder sintering and crystallization of polyphosphate glass containing strontium
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Melt-quenching method was employed for obtaining a glass-ceramic with the following composition 42P(2)O(5). 40CaO.5SrO.10Na(2)O.3TiO(2) (mol%) glass. The crystallization and sintering behavior of glass have been studied ...
