Abstract Technical control of filler distribution in polymer composites has been great interest because the structural modulation embedded assembly leads to superior property enhancement with reduced amounts filler. However, sophisticated technologies fillers, including alignment, assembly, filler-to-filler connection and localization nanocomposites, still pose challenges. Herein, we introduce ...

Nanowire is a cylindrical nano-structure with nanometer dimensions. In this research, the studied nanowire was made from the magnetic triple Ni-Fe-Co alloy. We utilized ordered porous anodic aluminum oxide as a template for the nanowire deposition. The nanowire arrays were electrodeposited in the cylindrical pores of the oxide layer by AC potential in a simple sulfate bath. Then the relation ...

Abstract Polymer composites are recently introduced as flexible candidates for modern electronic devices. Transition metals oxides incorporated PVDF polymer composite thin films were successfully synthesized and investigated an optical response. The effect of ZnO NiO nanoparticles fillers is studied in this work. Experimentally pure doped uniform evenly distributed by sol-gel based spin coating...

The addition of nano-fillers has been widely proposed as a method to enhance the dielectric properties high voltage polymeric insulation, though there are mixed reports in literature. Here potential silica nano-particles extend time failure specifically through resistance electrical tree growth epoxy resin is determined. benefit silane treating before compounding clearly established with regard...

Additions of high modulus nano particles to Aluminum alloys offer the potential to develop a lightweight composite with high mechanical properties. It is extremely difficult to disperse nano-sized ceramic particles uniformly in molten metal. In order to investigate the effect of nano-alumina on the microstructure and mechanical properties of composite, a new method was used in stir casting to a...
