Self-diffusivity, hydrogen bonding and density of different water models in carbon nanotubes
(2008)In this paper, the density, hydrogen bonding and self-diffusivity of water confined in carbon nanotubes are investigated. Molecular dynamics is used to simulate a large variety of nanotubes with various water models. Our ...

Shear-induced nanometer and micrometer structural responses in nanocomposite hydrogels
(2010)The structural responses of a polymer-clay nanocomposite hydrogel to an imposed shear field are investigated from the nanometer to the micrometer length scales. The effects of polymer molecular weight and concentration of ...

Structural Characterization and Thermoelectric Properties of Hot-Pressed CoSi Nanocomposites
(2014)Fabrication of nanocomposites by introduction of SiO2 metal oxide nanoparticles into a cobalt silicide thermoelectric matrix is studied. The CoSi matrix material was prepared through solid-state synthesis, and the nano-SiO2 ...

Thermal conductivity and degradation behavior of HDPE/graphene nanocomposites: Pyrolysis, kinetics and mechanism
(2017)Graphene-filled high-density polyethylene nanocomposites varying filler’s size (5, 10 and 25 × 10−6 m in diameter) were prepared by the melt-mixing method, and their thermal properties are then investigated by TG, Py–GC/MS ...

Thermoelectric properties of nanocrystalline PbTe synthesized by mechanical alloying
(2010)In this work, nanocrystalline lead telluride powder was synthesized from high-purity elements by mechanical alloying by means of a planetary ball-milling procedure. The milling medium was tungsten carbide, and the diameter ...
