Structure and Properties of Reactively Extruded Opaque Post-Consumer Recycled PET
(MDPI, 2021-10-14)
The recyclability of opaque PET, which contains TiO2 nanoparticles, has not been as well-studied as that of transparent PET. The objective of this work is to recycle post-consumer opaque PET through reactive extrusion with ...
Printability Study of a Conductive Polyaniline/Acrylic Formulation for 3D Printing
(MDPI, 2021-06-23)
There is need for developing novel conductive polymers for Digital Light Processing (DLP) 3D printing. In this work, photorheology, in combination with Jacobs working curves, efficaciously predict the printability of ...
Spin excitations of individual magnetic dopants in an ionic thin film
(IOP, 2022-10)
Individual magnetic transition metal dopants in a solid host usually exhibit relatively small spin excitation energies of a few meV. Using scanning tunneling microscopy and inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy (IETS) ...
Attaining Toughness and Reduced Electrical Percolation Thresholds in Bio-Based PA410 by Combined Addition of Bio-Based Thermoplastic Elastomers and CNTs
(MDPI, 2021-09-05)
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were added to provide electrical conductivity to bio-based polymer blends with improved toughness (based on commercially available Pebax thermoplastic elastomers and bio-based polyamide ...
Synthesis, Structure, Crystallization and Mechanical Properties of Isodimorphic PBS-ran-PCL Copolyesters
(MDPI, 2021-07-09)
Isodimorphic behavior is determined by partial inclusion of comonomer segments within the crystalline structure and arises from the comparatively similar repeating chain units of the parental homopolymers. Isodimorphic ...
Simulating Terahertz Field-Induced Ferroelectricity in Quantum Paraelectric SrTiO3
(American Physical Society, 2022-10)
Recent experiments have demonstrated that light can induce a transition from the quantum paraelectric to the ferroelectric phase of SrTiO3. Here, we investigate this terahertz field-induced ferroelectric phase transition ...
H atom scattering from W(110): A benchmark for molecular dynamics with electronic friction.
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022-08)
Molecular dynamics with electronic friction (MDEF) at the level of the local density friction approximation (LDFA) has been applied to describe electronically non-adiabatic energy transfer accompanying H atom collisions ...
Sustainable oxygen evolution electrocatalysis in aqueous 1 M H2SO4 with earth abundant nanostructured Co3O4
(Nature, 2022)
Earth-abundant electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) able to work in acidic working conditions are elusive. While many first-row transition metal oxides are competitive in alkaline media, most of them ...
Temperature modulated DSC for composition analysis of recycled polyolefin blends
(Elsevier, 2022-09)
Post-consumer plastic waste contains blends of numerous types of polyethylene (PE) and isotactic polypropylene (i-PP), whose recycling is challenging due to the complexity of this waste stream. A comprehensive knowledge ...
Supernucleation Dominates Lignin/Poly(ethylene oxide) Crystallization Kinetics
(American Chemical Society, 2022)
The effect of lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) on the crystallization kinetics of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) is examined. Lignin from spruce and ionic isolation was used to prepare LNPs with a number-averaged diameter of 85 nm ...
