Understanding the demixing behavior and structure-property correlation in graphene oxide containing LCST blends
A number of researchers have studied about the effects of different nanoparticles on the phase separation of LCST polymer blend systems. Many nanoparticles such as carbon nanotubes and silica have been incorporated in ...
Evolution of plasma electrolytic oxidation coatings formed on AM50 Mg alloy utilizing various alkaline electrolytes with and without glycerol additive and its corrosion behavior
The widespread application for Mg and its alloys are severely restricted mainly due to its relatively low strength and ductility and poor corrosion behaviour, particularly in the aqueous environment. The plasma electrolytic ...
Optimization of parameters in SiC production via Acheson Process – a hot model study
Silicon carbide (SiC) is produced industrially in a heat resistance furnace using quartz (silica) and raw petroleum coke (RPC) as the raw material. In this process, commonly known as the Acheson Process, a large current ...
Effect of microstructure and texture on the dwell fatigue behaviour of titanium alloys
Ever since the failure of the fan blades of the Rolls Royce gas turbine engine that powered the Lockheed Martin tristar aircraft in 1972, ambient temperature dwell fatigue (DF) in titanium alloys has received considerable ...
Structure-Property correlation in epoxy composites containing carbonaceous nanoparticles
Epoxy is widely used as thermosetting materials in carbon fiber composites due to its combined superior thermal and mechanical properties which makes them a potential candidate for myriad applications. But epoxy suffers ...
Co-continuous microstructures through spinodal decomposition in ternary systems: A phase field study
We have studied spinodal decomposition which leads to a three-phase microstructure in ternary
alloys using computer simulations based on the ternary Cahn-Hilliard equations. All the alloys
we have studied are in the same ...
Lanthanide Photoluminescence: A Tool for Analyzing Local Heterogeneity in Ferroelectrics and Scope for High Performance Optical Thermometry
Rare-earth doped phosphors are fascinating both from scientific and technological standpoints because of the great scope it offers for spectral tuning, enabling a large variety of applications: from simple road markers to ...
Application of Mesoporous Silica nanoparticles as a nano-carrier for the treatment of HCV and HIV infections
Carrier-mediated drug delivery systems have emerged as a powerful tool for the treatment of various diseases, especially, in the field of viral infection. The therapeutic index of traditional and novel anti-virals are ...
Pseudo-binary and Pseudo-ternary diffusion couple methods for understanding the growth of interdiffusion zone between bond coat and superalloys
Ni-based superalloys are widely used in jet engine applications. Bond coats are applied to these alloys for protection during service in a very harsh environment at high operating temperature. The addition of Pt to the ...
Mass Transport in Cu-Interlayer-Si Systems under Various Thermo-Electro-Mechanical Excursions
This work falls in general area of the electro-thermo-mechanical driven mass transport in Cu-Si systems, which often finds relevance while accessing reliability issues pertaining to thin film interconnects in microelectronic ...
