Polylactic acid (PLA)/halloysite nanotube (HNT) composite mats: Influence of HNT content and modification

TL;DR: The influence of HNT content and modification was investigated comprehensively, based on several characterisation techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, mechanical testing, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of ultrasound sonication in nanoclay clusters of nanoclay/epoxy composites

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of ultrasound sonication in intercalated nanoclay clusters were discussed and the hardness of nanoclays/epoxy composites samples made under different sonication time was examined to compare their mechanical performances.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical and flammability characterisations of biochar/polypropylene biocomposites

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of increasing amount of biochar to neat polypropylene continuously improved its tensile modulus and flexural strength/modulus, and the peak heat release rate and smoke production of the biocomposites were significantly reduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ternary graphene-carbon nanofibers-carbon nanotubes structure for hybrid supercapacitor

TL;DR: In this article, a hierarchical ternary carbon aerogel structure is designed by integrating graphene (Gr), carbon nanofibers (CNFs), and carbon nanotubes (CNTs).
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of FBG Sensors for SHM in Aerospace Structures

TL;DR: In this article, the use of the fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors for structural health monitoring (SHM) in aerospace fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) structures is discussed.
