Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleRecent Progress in Self-Cleaning Materials with Different Suitable ApplicationsSiavash Hosseinpour Chermahini, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Saeid Eslamian, Vijay P. SinghSelf-cleaning properties have received significant attention for the importance of their potential. Coatings at Nano-scales offer possibilities of using materials for self-cleaning surfaces. Recent efforts have begun to focus on the kinds of materials including metals, semiconductors and polymers. Such materials can have enormous potential in only a few applications. Moreover, the production of these materials requires high costs with … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 25 Apr 2018 · 9,132 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleApplication of Titanium Dioxide Self-Cleaning Coatings on Photovoltaic Modules for Soiling Related Losses ReductionAnnalisa Andaloro, Francesco FrontiniSeveral studies have assessed the influence of soiling deposition on Photovoltaic (PV) modules front-cover with regards to performance losses over time. In fact, soiling phenomena in PV systems are ascribed as responsible for medium and long-term yield reduction up to 16% over the first-year of outdoor exposure. Provided that PV technology is a low yield energy production source, maintaining module … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 5 Feb 2017 · 7,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSmart Retrofit Solutions of Buildings toward a Low Carbon WorldErdem Cuce, Pinar Mert CuceIn this short communication, energy-efficient, eco-friendly and low-cost solutions for existing buildings are considered in a holistic manner toward low/zero carbon building concept of near future. Buildings are still responsible for about 40% of total primary energy consumption in the world, hence decisive measures need to be taken promptly due to growing significance of environmental issues driven by fossil fuel … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Aug 2018 · 7,169 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis of Nanoparticles of Mixed Oxides Containing Titanium Cerium Silver and Silicon: Phase TransformationAkkarat Wongkaew, Waree Jansome, Supachai Khemchan et al.Problem statement: Titanium dioxide is a well known material using with self-cleaning application. This is due to its properties after exposed to UV light: Superhydrophilicity and photocatalysis. The addition of other oxides could prolong these properties without continuing exposed to UV. However, titanium dioxide phase is essential. In order to obtain these properties, titanium dioxide needs to be in anatase … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,824 accessesView PDFCite
