Journal ArticleDOI

Polyethylene multiwalled carbon nanotube composites

TL;DR: In this article, the electrical conductivity and linear viscoelastic behavior of polyethylene (PE) multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with weight fractions ranging from 0.1 to 10 wt% were prepared by melt blending using a mini-twin screw extruder.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of Si incorporation on the electrochemical and nanomechanical properties of DLC thin films

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of Si addition on the bonding structure, nanomechanical and corrosion behaviour of the diamond-like carbon (DLC) films was investigated by Raman and X-ray photoelectron (XPS) spectroscopy,nano-indentation, potentiodynamic and electrochemical impedance spectrography (EIS).
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical stability, corrosion performance and bioresponse of amorphous diamond-like carbon for medical stents and guidewires

TL;DR: In this article, a-Si:H interlayer was used to increase the hydrogen content and the estimated sp(3) fraction but reduced the film hardness, which can help reduce the risk of adhesion failure or film cracking.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility of a high strength steel X80

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility of a high strength steel grade (X80) and showed that hydrogen induces several kinds of damages including decohesion along ferrite/pearlite interfaces and microcracks initiations on the specimens external surface.
Journal ArticleDOI

A study of microstructure and nanomechanical properties of silicon incorporated DLC films deposited on silicon substrates

TL;DR: Silicon incorporation into DLC films prepared by plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) was studied by a combination of surface analysis methods and nanomechanical measurements; namely XPS, Raman spectroscopy and nanoindentation as discussed by the authors.
