Abstract: The paper is a short surwey of the R&D activity of Laboratory for Ceramic Fuel Cells at Frantcevych Institute for Problems of Materials Science, Ukraine, on their way from cubic zirconia powder development to creation and elaboration of Ceramic (Solid Oxide) Fuel Cells. Such the research topics, which are important for the further development of Ceramic Fuel Cells, like 1Ce10ScSZ zirconia powders, formation
Abstract: Tri-bore hollow fiber (HF) membranes with a triangular outer geometry were fabricated from polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and explored for water deoxygenation. The representative membranes were hydrophobic and porous as seen from the contact angle of 94o and the porosity of 75%. The maximum load, elongation at break and the tensile stress of the tri-bore HF membranes were 3.90 N, 37.81% and 1.27 MPa
Abstract: Ag-C nanofibers membranes were fabricated using electrospinning method by combing with preoxidation and carbonization processes, the structures, morphologies and electrical performances,were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and four probe instrument. And the influence of carbonization process with different carbonized temperatures on the structures, morphologies and
Abstract: Transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) have become an integral part of modern life through their essential role in touch screen technology. The growing demand for cheap and superior transparent conducting layers, primarily driven by the smart phone market, has led to renewed efforts to develop novel TCOs. Currently, the most widely used material for transparent conducting applications is Sn-doped indium oxide(ITO)
Abstract: Glass ionomer dental cements are widely used in dentistry due to the high adhesion to the teeth, low contraction during the setting reaction, continuous release of fluoride ions and biocompatibility. The cements are made of an inorganic polymeric oxide mixed with a mixture of organic acids, i.e.,
Abstract: Transparent conducting oxides are essential component in large number of modern devices. Coprecipitation, sol-gel synthesis, hydrothermal and solvothermal methods are the common methods use to synthesize transparent conducting oxide (TCO) materials
Abstract: Increasing energy demand, environmental pollution, and soaring CO2 emissions necessitate the exploitation of renewable sources of energy. Lignocellulosic biomass is a naturally abundant resource that can be considered
Abstract: In this study, ferric citrate complexes (Fe-Cit) have been successfully synthesized from citric acid monohydrate (C6H8O7·H2O) and Iron (III) nitrate nonahydrate (Fe(NO3)3·9H2O) in the basic solution at pH~8.
Abstract: Gas separation membranes for CO2 capture becomes steadily more attractive due to its high energy efficiency, relatively low cost and low environmental impact. Different types of membrane materials such as common polymers,
