to evaluate the effect of drought stress and foliar application of ascorbic acid on the growth and yield parameters of two varieties of sunflower pilot plant in the province of alborz as a split factorial in a randomized complete block design with four replications and treatments include: water stress (s) in three levels (s1) 70 mm evaporation from pan class a, (s2) 110 mm evaporation from pan ...

Blend hydrogels composed of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCh) and poly (acrylonitrile) (PAN) were synthesized via crosslinking method. Several analyses were made to investigate both physical and thermal properties of CMCh/PAN hydrogels like; FTIR, scanning electron microscope, XRD and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). TGA results showed that CMCh/PAN hydrogels are thermally more stable than CMCh an...

practical applications of conducting polymers such as polyaniline as membranes are particulary limitedbecause of their poor mechanical properties. however by mixing polyaniline with some conventional insulatingpolymers such as nylon and preparation composite films through solvent casting or blending, it seems to be asuitable way in order to increase the mechanical properties of the conducting p...

Highly orientated polypyrrole (PPy)-coated polyacrylonitrile (PAN) (PPy-PAN) nanofiber yarn was prepared with an electrospinning technique and in-situ chemical polymerization. The morphology and chemical structure of PPy-PAN nanofiber yarn was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and fou...

Polyacrylonitryle (PAN) fibers are used on a large scale in textile industry but, some sorts of PAN fibers are valuable precursors for specific carbon fiber (CF) due to their best fitness to the purpose e.g. for high strength CF or for active CF. The application of PAN as precursors of CF is based on its specific structure and texture. Thus, the properties of PAN base CF strongly depend on PAN ...

We present PAN-on-Demand, a self-organizing wireless personalarea network (PAN) that balances performance and energy concerns by scaling the structure of the network to match the demands of applications. PAN-on-Demand autonomously organizes co-located mobile devices with one or more commodity radios such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to form a network that enables data sharing among those devices. It ...
