Urea-formaldehyde resin (UFR), a thermosetting resin, is used to prepare ultrafiltration membranes because of its excellent mechanical properties and filtration performance. Herein, a porous ultrafiltration membrane is prepared by coating a mixture o...
Despite their broad biomedical applications in orthopedics and dentistry, metallic implants are still associated with failures due to their lack of surface biofunctionality, leading to prosthesis-related microbial infections. In order to address this...
Our research aim is to develop a new composite material via electrospinning and dip coating methodology. Among bioabsorbable polymers, Polylactic acid (PLA) is viewed as a suitable base material for biomedical usages such as drug delivery and wound d...
As a vital component in the valve train of internal combustion engines (ICEs), the cam/tappet pair undergoes high mechanical and thermal loads and usually works in a mixed and boundary lubrication regime. This leads to considerable friction loss and...
The recently discovered yttrium oxyfluoride (YOF) coating has been found to be a highly promising plasma-resistant material which can be coated onto the inner wall of the dry etching chambers used in the manufacturing of the three-dimensional stackin...
Accurate reference dielectric functions play an important role in the research and development of optical materials. Libraries of such data are required in many applications in which amorphous semiconductors are gaining increasing interest, such as i...
Here we show that when the temperature exceeded 1200 °C, the tensile strength drops sharply with change of fracture mode from fiber pull-out to fiber-break. Theoretical analysis indicates that the reduction of tensile strength and change of fract...
The flame resistance of applied coating materials affects the safety of innovative technological solutions. Silicone-containing polymeric materials are one of the most economical solutions in the field of coatings due to the effect of the unique comb...
Free radical polymerization is often performed by thermal initiation but also more and more by light-assisted polymerization processes. This second approach allows the polymerization to be carried out under mild conditions (under air, upon blue light...
Enhancement of stability, durability, and performance of thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems providing thermal insulation to aero-propulsion hot-section components is a pressing industrial need. An experimental program was undertaken with thermally...
