Polymethyl methacrylate based open-cell porous plastics for high-pressure ceramic casting
(Elsevier, 2004-11)
The aim of the present study is to investigate the microstructure-property relation in polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)-based porous mould materials used for high-pressure casting of ceramic articles. For this purpose, porous ...
Development of Si-O-C based ceramic matrix composites produced via pyrolysis of a polysiloxane
(Trans Tech Publications, 2004)
Pyrolytic conversion of a preceramic polymer, poly(phenyl)siloxane has been investigated to develop ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) at low temperatures with high dimensional stability. Furthermore, the thermal transformation ...
Features of electron and phonon processes in GaSb-FeGa1.3 eutectics
(IOP Publishing, 2003-11)
Eutectic alloys of GaSb-FeGa1.3 were prepared by the vertical Bridgman method. A microstructure with the needle-shaped metallic FeGa1.3 phase oriented in a specific direction and uniformly distributed within the GaSb matrix ...
Investigating the effects of a polyester preforming binder on the mechanical and ballistic performance of E-glass fiber reinforced polyester composites
(Elsevier, 2003)
An experimental investigation was carried out to determine the effects of a preforming binder on the mechanical properties and ballistic performance of E-glass-fiber/polyester composite systems. The glass preforms were ...
Effect of aluminum closed-cell foam filling on the quasi-static axial crush performance of glass fiber reinforced polyester composite and aluminum/composite hybrid tubes
(Elsevier, 2007)
The effect of Al closed-cell foam filling on the quasi-static crushing behavior of an E-glass woven fabric polyester composite tube and thin-walled Al/polyester composite hybrid tube was experimentally investigated. For ...
Artificial neural network (ANN) prediction of compressive strength of VARTM processed polymer composites
(Elsevier, 2005-08)
A three layer feed forward artificial neural network (ANN) model having three input neurons, one output neuron and two hidden neurons was developed to predict the ply-lay up compressive strength of VARTM processed E-glass/ ...
Effects of glass-fiber sizings on the strength and energy absorption of the fiber/matrix interphase under high loading rates
(Elsevier, 2001-02)
The interphases of various sized E-glass-fiber/epoxy-amine systems were tested at displacement rates in the range 230-2450 μm/s by a new experimental technique (dynamic micro-debonding technique). By this method, the ...
Porous nanocomposites prepared from layered clay and PMMA [poly(methyl methacrylate)]
(Elsevier, 2007-02)
The aim of the present work is the preparation of PMMA based porous nanocomposites that contain clay (montmorillonite, MMT) platelets as reinforcements within the cell walls of the porous structure. To render the clay ...
Preparation and characterization of Fe2O3-TiO2 thin films on glass substrate for photocatalytic applications
(Elsevier, 2006-04)
Fe2O3-TiO2 coatings were successfully prepared on glass slide substrates using sol-gel method for photocatalytic applications. The phase structure, thermal, microstructure and surface properties of the coatings were ...
Mode I and mode II fracture toughness of E-glass non-crimp fabric/carbon nanotube (CNT) modified polymer based composites
(Elsevier, 2008-12)
In this study, mode I and mode II interlaminar fracture toughness, and interlaminar shear strength of E-glass non-crimp fabric/carbon nanotube modified polymer matrix composites were investigated. The matrix resin containing ...
