in this research fe-tio2 nanocomposites with different molar ratios of fe/ti were prepared as nano-photocatalyst using a modified sol-gel process at ambient temperature. crystallographic properties of nanocomposites were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd). surface morphology and mean particle size of nanocomposites were specified by field emission scanning electron microscopy (fesem) and ...

the aim of this work is to probe the influence of nanoclay and turmeric spends content on microcrystalline of vinyl ester hybrid nanocomposites. a series of vinyl ester hybrid nanocomposites have been fabricated with varying amounts of ts viz., 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 % w/w along with 2% nanoclay. the microcrystalline parameters such as crystallite size and lattice strain of vinyl ester hybrid na...

novel collagen-based hydrogel nanocomposites were synthesized by graft copolymerization of acrylamide and maleic anhydrid in the presence of different amounts of montmorillonite, using methylenebisacrylamide (mba)and ammonium persulfate (aps) as crosslinker and initiator, respectively. the optimum amount of clay on the swelling properties of the samples was studied. it was found that the hydrog...

in this work, a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (tpue) model based on polytetramethylene glycol, toluene diisocyanate and 1,4-butanediol was selected and synthesized. according to this model two types of polyurethane nanocomposites were prepared by in situ polymerization and melt intercalation procedures. the organo-modified nanoclay was used in nanocomposites samples in 0.4 weight percent...

abstract: in this study, al 2 o 3 –sic nanocomposites have been fabricated by mixing of alumina powder containing 0.05% weight magnesium oxide and silicon carbide nano powders, followed by hot pressing at 1650 0 c. the mechanical properties of al 2 o 3 -sic nanocomposites containing different volume fraction (2.5, 5, 7.5, 10 and 15%) of nano scale sic particles were investigated and compared wi...

This paper investigates the morphology, thermal, and electrical properties of LDPE (low-density polyethylene)-based nanocomposites after thermal aging. The FTIR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) spectra results show that thermo-oxidative reactions occur in neat LDPE and LDPE/SiO₂ nanocomposites when the aging time is 35 days and in LDPE/MgO nanocomposites when the aging time is 77 days....

In this study, reduced graphene oxide (RGO)/polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) nanocomposites were prepared by employing in situ polymerization and solution blending methods. In terms of mechanical properties, RGO loading increased the Young’s modulus but decreased the elongation at break for RGO/PMMA nanocomposites. Tensile strength for solution blended RGO/PMMA nanocomposites increased after addi...

In this research, Novel UV curable conductive nanocomposites containing urethane acrylate and PANi-Co3O4 nanocomposite have been prepared. At first, PANi- Co3O4 nanocomposites have been synthesized and then PUA-PANi-Co3O4 nanocomposites films were prepared by ultraviolet radiation. UV-Vis and FT-IR studies confirm that there was strong chemical interaction between PANi and Co3O4 nanoparticles, ...

The nonbiodegradable and nonrenewable nature of plastic packaging has led to a renewed interest in packaging materials based on bio-nanocomposites (biopolymer matrix reinforced with nanoparticles such as layered silicates). One of the reasons for unique properties of bio-nanocomposites is the difference in physics at nanoscale as compared to that at macroscale. Therefore, the effect of nanoscal...
