Investigation on interlaminar fracture toughness and failure mechanisms of MWCNTs reinforced thermoplastic composites

This study demonstrates that incorporating multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) into Elium/UHMWPE thermoplastic composites, particularly when dispersed with a non-ionic aromatic surfactant (TNWDIS) to prevent agglomeration, significantly enhances interlaminar fracture toughness through synergistic mechanisms like crack bridging and improved interfacial adhesion, achieving up to 152.61% improvement in Mode II toughness at optimized loadings.

Improving the Interfacial Adhesion of ZnO Coatings on Colorless Polyimide via Surface Modification

This study demonstrates that modifying colorless polyimide surfaces with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) significantly enhances the interfacial adhesion of ZnO protective coatings through multi-site bidirectional anchoring, thereby effectively preventing atomic oxygen erosion and maintaining high optical transmittance for aerospace applications.

Comparative Adsorption Mechanisms of Coconut-Shell and Corn-Stalk Biochars for Cd²⁺, Pb²⁺, and Zn²⁺ in Aqueous Solutions

This study demonstrates that while both coconut-shell and corn-stalk biochars effectively remove Cd²⁺, Pb²⁺, and Zn²⁺ through chemisorption and heterogeneous multilayer adsorption with a preference for Pb²⁺, the corn-stalk biochar exhibits superior maximum adsorption capacity due to its richer oxygenated functional groups and mineral components.

Stabilization Mechanism and Rheological Behavior of Temperature- and Salinity-Resistant Gels Based on AM/AMPS Polymers

This study investigates the stabilization mechanisms and rheological behaviors of AM/AMPS-based gels with varying AMPS content, revealing that while higher AMPS content (60%) enhances thermal stability, lower AMPS content (30%) yields stronger plugging pressure due to a more brittle rheological profile, thereby providing critical insights for optimizing gel properties for high-temperature, high-salinity oilfield water shutoff applications.
