In the present study, the effect of material and process parameters on the morphological and hardness properties of friction stir process (FSP) acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) were investigated. For this purpose, firstly ABS polymeric sheets were injection molded. Then a slot with predetermined depth and width was created on sheets using a horizontal milling machine. Nano type (nanoclay, ...

The paper presents the results of research work to assess thermal conductivity mortar incorporating a novel carbon-based nano-material (CBN). data from laboratory tests served as starting point in training an artificial neural network (ANN) based on Levenberg–Marquardt backpropagation algorithm that was used predict values at later ages. CBNs were essential precursors multi-walled carbon nano-t...

the study was carried out to develop an efficient approach for prediction the genotoxicity of carbon nanotubes. the experimental data on the bacterial reverse mutation test (ta100) on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) was collected from the literature and examined as an endpoint. by means of the optimal descriptors calculated with the monte carlo method a mathematical model of the endpoint...

In the process of crude oil desalination, the aim is to separate dispersed phase of brine from oil phase. The project aim is the use of carbon nano-adsorbent for remov-al of salt from crude oil that, unlike other methods of salt separation from crude oil currently used, is a simple, inexpensive method with good ability to remove salt from crude oil. In this study, first, four types of carbon ad...

We describe, for the first time, the sequential structural changes of bundles of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWNTs) as a function of heat treatment temperature. DWNTs (inner diameters >0.9 nm) are structurally stable up to 2000 C. Above 2100 C, the outer walls of adjacent DWNTs start coalescing into large diameter tubes. At temperatures higher than 2100 C, three different types of structure...

In the last years carbon nanotubes have attracted increasing attention for their potential applications in the biomedical field as diagnostic and therapeutic nano tools. Here we investigate the antimicrobial activity of different fully characterized carbon nanotube types (single walled, double walled and multi walled) on representative pathogen species: Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus, Gram...

nano fillers are part of new studies to enhance various properties of fluids and solids. for example, adding nanoparticles as an enforcement in nanocomposites or as an additive to improve thermal or electrical properties in nano-fluids are of extreme importance in science and industry. there are numerous methods to uniformly disperse nanoparticles in fluid and solid phase. one of the well-used ...

Covalently functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were prepared by grafting well-defined thermo-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) via click reactions. First, azide-terminated poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (N3-PNIPAM) was synthesized by reversible addition fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization, and then the N₃-PNIPAM moiety was connected onto MWNTs by click...
