The environment presently contains greater amounts of heavy metals due to human activities, causing toxicity, mutagenicity, and carcinogenicity. This study evaluated a chitosan (CS) composite material combined with 1,3-dichlorocetone to extract heavy...

An integral part of daily dental practice is preparing and polishing placed composite restorations. When these procedures are performed, significant amounts of composite dust are released from the grinding material. This systematic review aims to enh...

Auxetic honeycomb structures, known for their exceptional mechanical properties, are widely used as sacrificial layers to protect critical targets from extreme explosive loads. However, conventional double arrowhead auxetic honeycomb-core structures...

The global reserve of sand has significantly decreased, and sand washing is predominantly favored due to its simplicity and low operational costs, but this method poses significant environmental risks like landslides, making its reuse essential for s...

The oxidation and recession of carbon-fiber-reinforced ultrahigh-temperature ceramic matrix composites (C/UHTCMCs) fabricated via reactive melt infiltration (RMI) using Zr-Ti alloys with three different compositions are evaluated via an arc-jet tunne...

This study deals with the evaluation of impact-damaged sandwich composites using different fiber types (carbon, glass, and Kevlar), where the outer layers, or “skins”, were made from the same type of fiber, while the inner layer, or &ldqu...

Traditional humidity sensors frequently face challenges, especially in environments with fluctuating temperatures, which can compromise their efficiency, stability, and reliability. Therefore, there is an urgent demand to fabricate low-cost and high-...

Structural degradation in liquid environments can hinder the applications of polymer composites as structural materials. In this work, we study the impacts of methanol on surface cracking and the propagation of pre-formed cracks in UV-irradiated poly...

This study explored the use of boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) as reinforcing fillers to enhance the mechanical properties of polymer-derived carbon matrix composites. BNNT-reinforced carbon matrix composites containing 0.5–5 wt% BNNTs were fab...

In this study, we investigated the biocompatibility and antibacterial efficiency of hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide/ceftazidime (HAp/GO/CFZ) coatings obtained by the Matrix-Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (MAPLE) technique for arthroplasty implants....
