Different basic materials, such as K-L zeolite, K-Al2O3, K-Mg/Al mixed oxide and MgO, were used as supports of Pt-catalysts for the dry reforming of methane (DR) reaction. The effects of the distribution of basic strengt...

Abstract The accurate characterization of anisotropy for additively manufactured materials is of vital importance for both high-performance structural design and printing processing optimization. To avoid the repetitive ...

Abstract This paper presents an electromagnetic characterization of aircraft composite materials, as well as numerical and experimental analyses of its effects on the antenna performance. Two uncalibrated S-parameters ch...

Abstract The technique of electromagnetic characterization of materials in free space allows for the measurement of constitutive properties without making contact with the material being measured. Characterization method...

Polyisoprene (PI), whether naturally or synthetically produced, is used in rubber compounds for many applications, such as tires, belts, and shoes. The effect of Nano ternary silica (NTS) addition on the thermal and mech...

In this paper, we employ the nonlinear optical microscopies of coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering spectroscopy, two-photon excitation fluorescence, and second harmonic generation to characterize the properties of two-...

We present a new kernel of N2 isotherms in γ-alumina, the metastable phase of α-alumina, most used in industrial applications. The dedicated kernel proposal, existing in the literature, uses cylindrical pores, as well ...

3D printing is transforming soft robotics by enabling complex geometries, rapid iteration, and cofabrication of structure, actuation, and sensing. Central to this progress are functional materials that provide stretchabl...

Driven by new two-dimensional materials, great changes and progress have taken place in the field of ultrafast photonics in recent years. Among them, the emerging single element two-dimensional materials (Xenes) have als...

Spectroscopy is a technique that analyzes the interaction between matter and light as a function of wavelength. It is the most convenient method for obtaining qualitative and quantitative information about an unknown sam...

This research aimed to explore the callogenesis, characterization, and antioxidant potential of Acacia nilotica callus and seed silver nanoparticles. The callus induction was accomplished using plant growth hormones. The...

Abstract Polyoxymethylene methacrylate (PMMA) is widely used in ophthalmic biomaterials. Misuse of PMMA in extreme environments is likely to damage the ocular surface and intraocular structures. The surface characterizat...

This study describes the synthesis and characterization of polymer-based nanocomposites to fabricate absorber materials for solar thermal collectors. Heat generation by nanosized silver particles (NSP) under irradiation ...

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their derivatives are found to be promising lithium-ion battery (LIB) anodes, yet their complex lithium storage mechanisms and kinetic behaviors remain insufficiently understood. In th...
