Raman spectroscopy is now an extremely important technique for the analysis of carbon-
based materials. It is demonstrated how it can be used to give a unique insight into …

Graphene has emerged as one of the promising nanoscale components of polymer
nanocomposites owing to its exceptional properties. The 2D graphene material, when …

We demonstrate that peat moss, a wild plant that covers 3% of the earth's surface, serves as
an ideal precursor to create sodium ion battery (NIB) anodes with some of the most attractive …

Monolithic epoxy, because of its brittleness, cannot prevent crack propagation and is
vulnerable to fracture. However, it is well established that when reinforced—especially by …

Carbon based nanofillers (graphene and carbone nanotube) are widely used as reinforcing
agents with epoxy based nanocomposites. The aim of paper is to review mechanical …

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) porous scaffolds based on agarose/chitosan/graphene
oxide (ACGO) composite were prepared by the freeze-drying technique. The prepared …

Emerging two-dimensional (2D) materials such as transition metal dichalcogenides offer
unique and hitherto unavailable opportunities to tailor the mechanical, thermal, electronic …

Graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) have received immense attention from the global scientific
research community in the 21st century due to their two-dimensional planar structure, high …

The delicate architecture of hybrid/mixed metal oxides with different working mechanisms
can display synergistically improved effects in energy storage applications. Herein, we …

Expandable graphite (EG) weighing 3 wt%, 5 wt% and 7 wt% was incorporated into 20 wt%
natural fiber (NF) reinforced epoxy and these composites were characterized using Bunsen …
