In the present work a thorough investigation of how small amounts of multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNTs), nanodiamonds (NDs), and combinations between them affect the properties and performance of polypropylene (PP) is presented. An improvement on the mechan ...
A new hole-transport material (HTM) based on the 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety (H1) was prepared through a single-step synthetic pathway starting from commercially available products. Thanks to a deep HOMO level, H1 was used as HTM in CH3NH3PbBr3 perovskite sola ...
Nowadays, the production in fine chemical and pharmaceutical industry is mostly carried out in large scale batch reactors having typically dimensions of a few meters to satisfy the demand of the market. Even though this technology has been widely used and ...
To measure the degree of reaction of slag in blended pastes, five methods were studied. Selective dissolution and differential scanning calorimetry are shown to be unreliable, SEM-BSE-IA-mapping is time consuming, but does provide good results with a reaso ...
We report the synthesis, structure, and physical properties of single crystals of CePt2In7. Single crystal x-ray diffraction analysis confirms the tetragonal I4/mmm structure of CePt2In7 with unit cell parameters a = 4.5886(6) Å, c = 21.530(6) Å and V = 45 ...
The paper considers Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of light in a cavity with a medium. In the framework of a two-level model we show the effect of gaseous medium on the critical temperature of light condensation in the system. Transition of the system to ...
The modelling platform mu ic [1] has been used to investigate the mechanisms occurring during the hydration of alite. It is shown that it is possible to obtain a good simulation of the hydration kinetics through the implementation of two mechanisms: a diss ...
This project deals with the study of a quasi-isothermal scroll compression/expansion obtained by spray injection of water. The spray injection process is first described from the theoretical point of view as it concerns the droplets formation and breakup p ...
Most processes in the chemical industry involve potentially hazardous steps. It is thus of critical importance to perform risk assessments and to know the thermal behavior of the chemicals at stake. A widely used thermal analysis, differential scanning cal ...
We studied the temperature dependence of heat capacity C-P(T) of a quasi-one-dimensional magnetic system beta-TeVO4, in a zero magnetic field and a temperature region of 0.1 K
