a series of polystyrene hybrid nanocomposites have been fabricated with varying amounts of tio2 viz., 0, 0.5 and 1 % w/w along with 3% ts by in-situ polymerization method. the influence of surface modified tio2 nanoparticles on the thermal properties of ps matrix was examined using thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry. thermal characteristics of the polystyrene/ts/tio2 hybrid ...

in this work, thermal degradation behavior of a fuel-rich energetic mixture containing epoxy binder was studied by thrmogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry under dynamic nitrogen atmosphere at different heating rates. variation of the thermal degradation activation energy of the mixture was evaluated by differential and integral isoconversional methods via akts software p...

We report theoretical calculations of the thermal conductivity of superfluid He impregnated into high-porosity aerogel and compare these results with available experimental data.

Polycrystalline Platinum Nanofilms Q. G. ZHANG, B. Y. CAO, X. ZHANG, M. FUJII and K. TAKAHASHI, J. Phys.: Condens. Matter, 2006, 18, (34), 7937–7950 The thicknesses of the studied polycrystalline Pt nanofilms (1) ranged from 15.0–63.0 nm and the mean grain sizes varied from 9.5–26.4 nm. The thermal conductivities of (1) measured by a direct electrical heating method are greatly reduced from the...

Measurement of thermal conductivity of rocks is important to understand the thermal properties of earth materials, the characteristics of terrestrial heat flow, and the formation of oil. In this paper we report thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, and heat capacity data for 12 conglomerate, sandstone, and gypsum-bearing samples from the Paleogene Kuqa River profile in Kuqa, China. Samples...

The evolution of the thermal conductivities of the unidirectional, 2D woven and 3D braided composites during the CVI (chemical vapor infiltration) process have been numerically studied by the finite element method. The results show that the dual-scale pores play an important role in the thermal conduction of the CVI-densified composites. According to our results, two thermal conductivity models...
