Non-Metallic Material Science

Abstract:

The kinetics of free-radical crosslinking co-polymerization (FRCCP) of acrylic acid (AA) with both methacrylic acid (MA) (PAMA hydrogel ) and maleic acid (MAL) (PAMAL hydrogel) was investigated under the conditions of isothermal conventional heating (CH) and under the conditions of microwave heating (MWH) with controlled cooling.   The kinetics curves of FRCCP of PAMA and PAMAL...

Abstract:

Cholesteric liquid crystal (Ch-LC) exhibits many remarkable optical properties due to formation of a macroscopic helical structure. A low amount of monomer (5wt.%) is dispersed into cholesteric liquid crystal and get polymerized under UV radiations to form polymer stabilized cholesteric texture (PSCT). The thermo-chromic response made this device suitable for the developing applications in thermal... More

Abstract:

Freshwater scarcity is a critical challenge that human society has to face in the 21^st century. Desalination of seawater by reverse osmosis (RO) membranes was regarded as the most promising technology to overcome the challenge given that plenty of potential fresh water resources in oceans. However, the requirements for high desalination efficiency in terms of permeation... More
