… assing 20μm. Comprehensive laboratory tests were performed to determine the impact of different types and particle sizes of fillers on the engineering and mechanical properties of fine mastics and stone mastic asphalt mixture. The results indicate that the application of industrial by-products used as fillers improves …

… ghly ordered arrays of crystalline wurtzite microstructure with mixed orientation. An increase in average particle size of the prepared membranes from 1.25 to 3 µm with increasing CeO2 percent was observed indicating the vital role of CeO2 as secondary phase in improving the crystallinity of the coated films formed. De …
… r signals traversing intermediate layered precipitation media, taking into account the random behavior of particle size, orientation, shape and concentration distributions. Based on a rigorous solution of the volumetric multiple-scattering integral equations, the formalism offers the capability of treating the potentia …
… O doping percent was observed. The increase of ZnO doping percent showed a marked decrease in the average particle size of MgO powder as a result of the replacement of some Mg2+ by Zn2+ which has similar ionic radius as Mg2+. This decrease in particle size of MgO was also related to the decrease of the degree of MgO cr …
A graphite-like carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanosheet sample was synthesized from a melamine precursor by a method of simple direct heating in a semi-closed system followed by thermal oxidation etching at 550 °C for 12 h. The sample was labelled as (g-C3N412h) and was systematically characterized. Moreover, the results wer …

… o obtain the desired product. By using a lower temperature of preparation, the product obtained shows nanosize particles, with sizes lower than 100 nanometers. In contrast, the ceramic route (or solid state reaction) using higher temperatures leads to bigger particles size that are out of the nanosize range. Also, some …
The synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), using plant extracts, bacteria, fungi and yeasts, and their antimicrobial activities have been widely investigated and well documented. However, pullulan AgNPs and their antimicrobial activities have not received much attention. The objective of this study was to synthesiz …
… dy was to use stir casting to create aluminum matrix nanocomposites with a uniform dispersion of TiO2 nanoparticles to evaluate their effect on the performance of aluminum-based products. Microstructural analysis significantly reduced the grain size, with an average drop of 18.2%. This suggests that the TiO2 nanopartic …
