Mesoporous NiO nanosheets were directly grown on three-dimensional (3D) carbon cloth substrate, which can be used as binder-free anode for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). These mesoporous nanosheets were interconnected with each other and forming a network with interval voids, which give rise to large surface area and efficient buffering of the volume change. The integrated hierarchical electrode...

Liquid water is pushed through flow channels of fuel cells, where one surface is a porous carbon electrode made up of carbon fibers. Water drops grow on the fibrous carbon surface in the gas flow channel. The drops adhere to the superficial fiber surfaces but exhibit little penetration into the voids between the fibers. The fibrous surfaces are hydrophobic, but there is a substantial threshold ...

In 1988, Carbon-14 findings from three Accelerator Mass Spectrometer (AMS) Labs independently dated a sample removed from the Shroud of Turin: unarguably the most widely studied linen cloth in history. The dates reported ranged between 126

Hierarchical mesoporous NiCo2O4 nanoneedle arrays on carbon cloth have been fabricated by a simple hydrothermal approach combined with a post-annealing treatment. Such unique array nanoarchitectures exhibit remarkable electrochemical performance with high capacitance and desirable cycle life at high rates. When evaluated as an electrode material for supercapacitors, the NiCo2O4 nanoneedle array...

Zorflex is a new type of antimicrobial dressing composed of 100% activated carbon cloth. It attracts and binds bacteria to its surface, enabling them to be safely removed at dressing change. It has no reported toxic effects and can be used on either a short-or long-term basis. This article describes 4 case studies in which patients with recalcitrant chronic venous leg ulcers that were prone to ...

Photo-reproductive processes for copying architectural and engineering drawings first became common in the 1880s with the introduction of the blueprint. While processes on paper have become increasingly identifiable in recent years, those on cloth remain less familiar. Tracing cloth is a plain woven, heavily sized fabric used as a durable and translucent support for ink tracings. Because of its...

A single plasma process involving three consecutive steps has been developed for producing high gas flow catalytic nanostructures on the electrodes of proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells (FC). Using a high density helicon radio frequency (13.56 MHz) plasma, nickel is sputtered onto a porous carbon support. Changing the background gas from argon to methane/hydrogen allowed 2 μm long, 37 nm...

In this work, for eliminating the (RR1346), considered to be a waste in wastewater from dye industries electrochemical advanced oxidation process has been used. Graphene oxide coated carbon cloth (GO/CC) and Fe3O4 /GO coated carbon cloth (Fe3O4/GO/CC) electrodes has been fabricated by synthesized GO and Fe3O4 nanoparticles. Characteristic properties such as surface morphology as the main reason...

A low cost poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) phase inversion coating was developed as a cathode diffusion layer to enhance the performance of microbial fuel cells (MFCs). A maximum power density of 1430 ± 90 mWm 2 was achieved at a PVDF-HFP loading of 4.4 mg cm 2 (4:1 polymer:carbon black), with activated carbon as the oxygen reduction cathode catalyst. This power dens...
