In this paper, a new structure is provided for the dispersion compensating photonic crystal fibers in order to broaden the chromatic dispersion and increase the dispersion compensating capability in a wide wavelength range. In the structure, putting a combination of circular holes and a star structure in the inner core clad causes the dispersion coefficient profile to be broadened, and addition...

it is possible to develop new biodegradable active packaging by coating biopolymers on paper-based packaging material and also incorporating proper antimicrobial agents into coating structure. in this study bacterial contamination of two commercial cardboard were evaluated.in order to manufacture an appropriate antibacterial packaging material, coating of chitosan-poly vinyl alcohol blends with...

Cellulose was modified by polystyrene (PS) and polyacrylonitrile (PAN) via free radical and living radical polymerization, and then cellulose was used as the matrix in the preparation of polymer/clay nanocomposite, through a solution intercalation method. For this purpose, first, the graft polymerization of styrene (St) onto cellulose fibers was performed by using suspension polymerization and ...

catalytically graphitized electrospun carbon nanofibers adorned uniformly with fine nickel nanoparticles were successfully prepared. the procedure was based on the electrospinning technique and the use of nickel precursor to create both graphitized nanofibers and nickel nanoparticles under a relatively low-temperature heat treatment. the x-ray diffraction and raman results clearly proved cataly...

hdpe monofilaments were obtained using different extruders and drawn by post-extruder equipments. after solidification, drawn and undrawn monofilaments (draw ratio 7:1) were irradiated with 10 mev electron beams in air at room temperature at 25, 50, 75, 100 and 125 kgy dose ranges to induce a network structure. hdpe crosslinking was studied on the basis of gel content measurements. the fibers w...
