Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Aluminum Alloy-Based Nanocomposites Produced by the Addition of AL-TI5-B1 to the Matrix MeltHashem F. El-Labban, M. Abdelaziz, Essam R.I. MahmoudThe present study is an attempt to produce aluminum matrix nanocomposites using a certain aluminum alloy (which its melt has high fluidity) as a matrix material and reinforced with hard and stable fine (nano-sized) precipitates. Therefore, Al-Ti5-B1 master alloy and Al-Si alloy of high silicon content were proposed for preparation of such nanocomposites. Three nanocomposites were prepared by adding Al-Ti5-B1 … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 9 Jan 2014 · 7,123 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDielectric Properties of Ni0.2Zn0.8Fe2O4-Polypropylene CompositesTan Foo Khoon, Jumiah Hassan, Nurhidayaty Mokhtar et al.Problem statement: In the last decade, the studies and investigation on polymer-based composites have drawn significant attention owing to improvement in their mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical and pharmaceutical properties as compared with pure polymer. Approach: Different compositions of Ni0.2Zn0.8Fe2O4 (NZF) and Polypropylene (PP) can alter the useful properties of polymer-based composites. Hence, the determination toward significant percentage of NZF added … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,947 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNematic and Smectic Mesophase from Calamitic Bisazobenzene Liquid Crystal: Synthesis and Characterization of 1- Methoxyhexyloxy-4'-(4-Phenylazo) Azobenzene Hybrid MoleculeSidik Silong, Abdulsalam Abubakar Salisu, Muhamad Zaki Ab Rahman et al.A new hybrid calamitic liquid crystal material with rod-shape bisazobenzene moieties as a core has been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic methods. The mesomorphic properties were investigated by differential scanning colorimetry, polarizing optical microscopy and X-Ray diffraction. The rod-shaped molecule 1- methoxyhexyloxy-4`-(4-phenylazo)azobenzene was prepared by diazotization of 4-phenylazoaniline, coupling with phenol and subsequent etherification of 1-Bromohexyloxy-4`-(4-phenylazo)azobenzene in methanol. The presence … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,980 accessesView PDF Cite
