Refractories are defined as "non-metallic materials having those chemical and physical properties that make them applicable: for structures, or as components of systems, that are exposed to environments above 1,000 °F (...

Abstract This study examines the flow and heat transfer behavior of a tri-hybrid nanofluid over an exponentially stretching/shrinking surface, incorporating the influences of thermal radiation, viscous dissipation, inter...

Abstract The study aimed to develop cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) from pumpkin seed hull waste, referred to as pumpkin seed hull cellulose nanocrystals (PSHCNCs), and further evaluated the effect of incorporation (2.5–1...

Abstract This study presents the synthesis, characterization, and application of silanized nano-biochar (SNB) derived from palm kernel shell for the development of high-performance low-density polyethylene (LDPE) composi...

Abstract A novel biphasic Dy2Hf2O7-HfO2 composite was synthesized via a solid-state reaction route for potential thermal barrier coating (TBC) applications. X-ray diffraction confirmed that the reaction between Dy2O3 and...

Abstract A high rate of urbanization is a common manifestation of developing countries, including Ethiopia. This high rate of urbanization in Ethiopia is significantly altering the country’s energy balance. The study e...

Sisal nanowhiskers were used as novel reinforcement to obtain nanocomposites with polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) as matrix phase. They are seen as attractive materials due to the widespread availability and low cost of the sis...

Abstract The conversion of solar radiation into thermal energy has gained increasing attention due to the growing demand for renewable sources of heat and electricity. Nanofluids, owing to their enhanced heat transfer ca...
