Sodium niobate can be used as precursor of flexible composites with great properties aiming the use in devices that combine properties like piezoelectricity and photoluminescence. In this work, we obtained NaNbO3 fiber-like ...

Glass from computers’ LCD monitor screens were recovered, ground and used as filler for Polyamide-6. The composites contained 10 wt% of glass particles. Two particle sizes were tested: glass particles smaller than 106 μm ...

In order to study the effect of fruit pulp on the structure of fruit jams, they were modeled as composites with a high-methoxyl pectin (HMP) gel matrix filled with apple particles. The effect of particle concentration (0, ...

The corrosion behaviour of metal matrix composites (MMCs) is strictly linked with the presence of heterogeneities such as reinforcement phase, microcrevices, porosity, secondary phase precipitates, and interaction products. ...

The corrosion behaviour of metal matrix composites (MMCs) is strictly linked with the presence of heterogeneities such as reinforcement phase, microcrevices, porosity, secondary phase precipitates, and interaction products. ...

Polypropylene (PP) composites with different carbon-based fillers such as graphite (G), thermally reduced graphene oxide (TrGO), and carbon nanotubes (CNT) were prepared by the melt mixed method and the effect of the ...

We propose to employ deformed commutation relations to treat many-body problems of composite particles. The deformation parameter is interpreted as a measure of the effects of the statistics of the internal degrees of ...

Sisal fibers were added to wood particle composites to enhance their toughness. The selected matrix was a commercial styrene diluted unsaturated polyester thermoset resin. Fracture tests were carried out using single-edge ...
