Gold nanoparticles and their arrays are some of the most studied nanomaterials, with promising applications in many fields such as electronics, optoelectronics, catalysis and biology. In order to protect bare gold nanoparticles from... more
I n this work, the grafting of maleic anhydride onto two types of linear low density polyethylene with hexene-1 comonomer (LLDPE-H1) and butene-1 comonomer (LLDPE-B1), in the presence of styrene monomer (St) and dicumyl peroxide initiator... more
The carbon nanotube (CNT) represents one of the most unique inventions in the field of nanotechnology. CNTs have been studied closely over the last two decades by many researchers around the world due to their great potential in different... more
Due to the chemical similarity to natural calcified tissues (bones and teeth) of mammals, calcium orthophosphates (abbreviated as CaPO 4) appear to be good biomaterials for creation of artificial bone grafts. However, CaPO 4 alone have... more
M elt free-radical grafting reactions between ethylene-propylene-dieneterpolymer (EPDM) and glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) were investigated in a batch mixer (170°C, 60rpm). Effect of dicumylperoxide (DCP) initiator and GMA functionalizing... more
To date, water pollution is a global top agenda that requires ongoing evaluation and revision of water resource management at all levels. It occurs when pollutants are directly or indirectly discharged into the water bodies without the... more
Functionalization of graphene oxide leads improvement in thermal stability and flame retardancy. Acid chloride terminated N-[4-(chlorocarbonyl)phenyl]maleimide (Cl-CPMI) was synthesized to decorate hydroxyl group in graphene oxide (GEO)... more
Atactic polystyrene (PS) was chemically modified with maleic (MAH), succinic (SAH), and phtalic (PhAH) anhydrides. Styrene was copolymerized with acrylic (AA) and methacrylic acids (MA). Amount of carboxyl groups (%) bound to polymers was... more
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) exhibit excellent mechanical, electrical, and magnetic properties as well as nanometer scale diameter and high aspect ratio, which make them an ideal reinforcing agent for high strength polymer composites. However,... more
