Development of Composites with a Self-Healing Function
2015
This research aimed to realize experimentally the facilevascular self-healing system in epoxy glass fibre reinforced composite. Using flexiblepolytetrafluoroethylene tubes as removable preforms, the channels were embeddedinto both neat epoxy resin and unidirectional glass-fibre reinforced epoxy laminate.Room temperature curable epoxy resin with a surfactant and an amine-basedhardener were the components of the binary healing agent. The specimens oftapered double cantilever beam geometry were subjected to Mode I fracture tests.Fracture of specimens released the healing agent from channels and triggeredself-healing process of the crack. Tested neat epoxy resin specimensdemonstrated recovery o…
The Synthesis, Characterization and Sintering of Nickel and Cobalt Ferrite Nanopowders
2012
The NiFe2O4 and CoFe2O4 ferrites were synthesized by two methods – chemical sol-gel self-combustion method and the high frequency plasma chemical synthesis and magnetic properties, crystallite size, specific surface area of synthesized products are characterized. Nanopowders synthesized in the high frequency plasma are with specific surface area in the range of (28 – 30) m2/g (the average particle size (38 – 40) nm, crystallite size ~40 nm). The ferrite nanopowders obtained by sol-gel self-combustion method have the specific surface area of (37 – 43) m2/g (average particle size (26 – 31) nm, crystallite size (10 – 20) nm). All synthesized nanopowders were sintered via pressure-less sinterin…
Augmentation of weld penetration by flux assisted TIG welding and its distinct variants for oxygen free copper
2021
Abstract A comparative study to investigate the influences of single component fluxes on the depth-to-width ratio (DWR) of oxygen free copper was carried out with novel variants of tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding namely Activated TIG (A-TIG), Flux Bounded TIG (FB-TIG) and Flux Zoned TIG (FB-TIG) processes. The experiments to identify the fluxes delivering the higher DWRs in A-TIG welding among thirteen distinct fluxes were followed by the trials with FB-TIG and FZ-TIG employing those identified DWR fluxes. The fluxes which outperformed with all the techniques were MoO3 & MgO. Reversed Marangoni and arc constriction mechanisms were perceived to be opt for such an increase in DWR. Metallurgi…
Structural characterization and optical constants of p-toluene sulfonic acid doped polyaniline and its composites of chitosan and reduced graphene-ox…
2020
Para-Toluene sulfonic acid doped polyaniline (PANI), PANI/chitosan composites, PANI/reduced graphene-oxide composites and a ternary composite comprising of PANI, chitosan and reduced graphene-oxide have synthesised via oxidative polymerisation of aniline by Ammonium peroxydisulfate (APS). FTIR, XRD, FESEM and UV-VIS techniques were performed for the confirmation of the successful synthesis. The fundamental optical parameters such as, complex refractive index, complex dielectric constants and optical conductivity of the PANI and the composites were investigated in the UV-VIS-NIR range. The results show a clear dependence on the constituent component such as sulphur as well as the absorbance …

Single-molecule magnet properties of a monometallic dysprosium pentalene complex
2018
The pentalene-ligated dysprosium complex [(η8-Pn†)Dy(Cp*)] (1Dy) (Pn† = [1,4-(iPr3Si)2C8H4]2−) and its magnetically dilute analogue are single-molecule magnets, with energy barriers of 245 cm−1. Whilst the [Cp*]− ligand in 1Dy provides a strong axial crystal field, the overall axiality of this system is attenuated by the unusual folded structure of the [Pn†]2− ligand. peerReviewed

Nanocomposites: Síntesis, caracterización y aplicaciones
2018
En las últimas décadas la nanotecnología ha avanzado a una velocidad vertiginosa, haciendo posible la manipulación de las propiedades de los materiales al controlar la materia a niveles nanométricos y logrando metas impensables hasta hace unas pocas décadas. Sin embargo, al tratarse de una ciencia relativamente reciente, queda mucho potencial por explotar. Es indispensable un avance científico multidisciplinar para lograr superar con éxito las actuales limitaciones tecnológicas para que continúe el progreso. Para ello serán indispensables tanto la obtención de nuevos materiales con propiedades manipulables, como el desarrollo de métodos de fabricación que permitan integrar estos materiales …
Statistique de l'efficacité de blindage de matériaux composites pour la 5G: méthodes avancées d'échantillonnage
2020
International audience; Cette proposition présente une méthodologie pour l'estimation statistique du niveau de protection offert par des matériaux composites constitués par des fibres de carbone sur une large gamme de fréquences contenant la bande 5G. La variabilité géométrique des nanostructures de carbone (essentiellement en termes de formes et de dimensions) impose, dans un premier temps, une caractérisation fréquentielle précise de la distribution statistique des propriétés diélectriques des matériaux. La propagation, dans un second temps, des incertitudes précédentes au niveau de l'efficacité de blindage des matériaux apporte des contraintes particulières quand aux méthodes statistique…
Effect of Stacking Sequence and Sodium Bicarbonate Treatment on Quasi-Static and Dynamic Mechanical Properties of Flax/Jute Epoxy-Based Composites
2019
The present paper deals with the investigation of quasi-static and dynamic mechanical response of epoxy-based composites reinforced with flax and/or jute plain weave fabrics. In order to evaluate the influence of the stacking sequence, two monolithic laminates reinforced with flax or jute fibers and two hybrid flax/jute laminates were manufactured through the vacuum infusion technique. Furthermore, an eco-friendly and cost-effective surface treatment based on fiber soaking in a sodium bicarbonate solution was employed to improve the fiber-matrix adhesion. The mechanical characterization (by means of quasi-static flexural, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis and Charpy impact tests) allowed …
