Journal ArticleDOI
Water absorption and states of water in semicrystalline poly(vinyl alcohol) films
TL;DR: In this paper, wide angle X-ray studies indicate that diffusion of water into semicrystalline samples of the polymer gradually destroys the crystalline regions of the polyvinyl alcohol, although water is found to not inhabit intact crystallites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphology, thermal relaxations and mechanical properties of layered silicate nanocomposites based upon high-functionality epoxy resins
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the possibility of improving the mechanical properties of high-functionality epoxy resins through dispersion of octadecyl ammonium ion-modified layered silicates within the polymer matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrogen-doped nanoporous carbon/graphene nano-sandwiches: Synthesis and application for efficient oxygen reduction
Jing Wei,Yaoxin Hu,Yan Liang,Biao Kong,Jin Zhang,Jingchao Song,Qiaoliang Bao,George P. Simon,San Ping Jiang,Huanting Wang +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a zeolitic-imidazolate-framework (ZIF) layer-protected carbonization route is developed to prepare N-doped nanoporous carbon/graphene nano-sandwiches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermoplastic toughening of epoxy resins: a critical review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the importance of the thermoplastic endgroups, the material's morphology, the ductility of the matrix and the chemical structure of the material.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controllable corrugation of chemically converted graphene sheets in water and potential application for nanofiltration
TL;DR: A combination of AFM, SEM and permeation experiments suggests that the amplitude of corrugation of chemically converted graphene (CCG) sheets in water can be readily controlled by hydrothermal treatment, leading to a new class of permeation-tuneable nanofiltration membranes.
