in the present study, ni-p-cnt composite coating was successfully fabricated via electroless plating. scanning electron microscopy (sem) was used to characterize the coatings. the effect of cnts concentration in the bath on its content in the composite coatings was studied. furthermore, the corrosion behaviour of the coatings with different contents of cnts was evaluated using tafel polarizatio...

in this study, the potential use of nano-coatings for food packaging industry has been investigated. therefore, this study has been presented in three sections: the application of nanocoatings in the food industry, natural, edible and biodegradable nano coatings. the use of nanoscale or multiatomic coatings have presented specific features in the packing industry. coatings which have shown thei...

Recently, there is a need for fostering the critical reflective side of L2 teacher education. This study investigated the implications of personal narrative (PN) and reflective journal (RJ) writing for Iranian EFL teachers’ reflective writing. Sixty (36 women and 24 men) in-service secondary school EFL teachers were selected based on the convenience sampling from Iran. L2 teachers equally divid...

while many international organisations have independent evaluations, including the international monetary fund (imf) and world health organization (who), uniquely the world bank in its 2015 world development report sought to ascertain the potential biases that influence how its staff interpret evidence and influence policy. here, we describe the world bank’s study design, including experiments ...

poly (lactide-co-glycolide)/bioactive glass/hydroxyapatite (pbgha) and poly (lactide-co-glycolide)/ bioactive glass (pbg) nanocomposite coatings with bone. materials and methods: sol-gel derived 58s bioactive glass nanoparticles, 50/50 wt% poly (lactic acid)/poly (glycolic acid) and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles were used to prepare the coatings. the nanocomposite coatings were characterized by ...
