Abstract: Kevlar pulp treated with low-temperature plasma and nano cellulose fibrils (NCFs) have been introduced as reinforcements in the preparation for composite insulating paper with low relative ...

Edited* by Mary K. Estes, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX, and approved September 4, 2012 (received for review April 18, 2012) Here, we show that E. faecalis V583 produces a composite phage, ...

Abstract: The decay-like fracture is an emerging mode of abnormal mechanical failure of composite insulators the study of which is still in its infancy. The degradation of epoxy resin of glass fiber ...

Composite fiber materials are superior materials due to their high strength and light weight. Composites reflect the properties of their constituents, which is proportional to the volume fraction of ...

As a new type of membrane material, graphene oxide (GO) can easily form sub-nanometer interlayer channels, which can effectively screen salt ions. The composite membrane and structure with a high ...

Under high temperature, aqueous film forming foam extinguishing agent has poor flame retardancy and low fire efficiency. In order to solve this problem, talc was introduced into foam to form composite ...

The promise of lithium–sulfur batteries for future electric transportation and stationary energy storage is being limited by their poor cycling stability. Previous approaches to improvement often ...

Despite its short history, diffraction-unlimited fluorescence microscopy techniques have already made a substantial imprint in the biological sciences. In this review, we describe how stimulated ...

This article describes the design of piezoresistive thin-film sensors based on single-layer graphene decorated with metallic nanoislands. The defining characteristic of these composite thin films is ...
