Electronic structure, chemical bonding features, and electron charge density of the double-cubane single crystal [Sb7S8 Br 2] (AlCl4)3
(American Institute of Physics, 2011-05-16)
The present calculations were performed using all-electron full potential linearized augmented plane wave method based on the density functional theory. We have optimized the structure of the double-cubane single crystal ...
Tensile properties, swelling, and water absorption behavior of rice-husk-powder-filled polypropylene/(recycled acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber) composites
(Society of Plastics Engineers, 2011-09)
The effect of rice husk powder (RHP) on the tensile properties, swelling, water absorption, and morphology of polypropylene (PP)/[recycled acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBRr)]/RHP composites was studied. Composites ...
Chemical modification of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites: The effect of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane on mechanical and thermal properties
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2011-01)
Chitosan was used as filler in polypropylene (PP) polymer. In order to improve compatibility between chitosan and PP, chitosan was chemically modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (3-APE). The results show that the ...
Investigating the possibility of utilization of kaolin and the potential of metakaolin to produce green cement for construction purposes-A review
(INSInet Publication, 2011-09)
Geopolymers are inorganic alkali aluminosilicate gels, formed from reaction of mineral clays or aluminosilicate-bearing industrial wastes, and treated with alkali silicate solution at 40-80°C. Geopolymers have been studied ...
Comparative study on thermal, compressive, and wear properties of palm slag brake pad composite with other fillers
(Trans Tech Publications, 2011)
The attractive performance-to-cost ratio associated with the incorporation of waste material in composite formulations used to produce brake pads has stimulated the idea of exploring the possible incorporation of additional ...
Wettability, electrical and mechanical properties of 99.3Sn-0.7Cu/Si 3N4 novel lead-free nanocomposite solder
(Trans Tech Publications, 2011-07-04)
A nanocomposite solder alloy with 99.3Sn-0.7Cu base alloy was successfully fabricated using the powder metallurgy route which consists of blending, compaction and sintering. Varying amount of nano size silicon nitride ...
The effect of silane treatment on processing characteristic and swelling behavior of polypropylene/recycled acrylonitrile butadiene rubber/rice husk powder composites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2011-03-22)
The effect of silane treatment on processing characteristic and swelling behavior of recycled acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBRr)/polypropylene (PP)/rice husk powder (RHP) composites has been studied. Polypropylene/recycled ...
Mechanical and thermal properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene composites: The effect of acrylic acid
(Society of Plastics Engineers, 2011-06)
The mechanical properties, morphology, and thermal properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites have been studied. The effect of the chemical modification of chitosan by acrylic acid treatment was also ...
Theoretical investigation for Li2CuSb as multifunctional materials: Electrode for high capacity rechargeable batteries and novel materials for second harmonic generation
(Elsevier B.V., 2011-07-28)
Based on the first-principles electronic structure calculations, we predict that Li2CuSb should be good electrode materials for high capacity rechargeable batteries and novel materials for second harmonic generation. This ...
Electronic band structure and optical properties of titanium oxyphosphates Li0.50Co0.25TiO(PO4) single crystals: An ab-initio calculations
(Elsevier Inc., 2011-08)
From the refined atomic positions obtained by Belmal et al. (2004) using X-ray diffraction for Li0.50Co0.25TiO(PO4), we have performed a structural optimization by minimizing the forces acting on the atoms keeping the ...
