Abstract The dielectric properties of nanocomposites composed of epoxy resin host and aluminum nitride (AlN) and boron nitride (BN) nanofillers have been studied in the frequency domain from 10-2 to 106 Hz at different temperatures. The introduction of the ceramic AlN and BN nano ...
Abstract The improvement of heat conduction in electrical power equipment has become a very important issue. Thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers, which are mainly used for their insulating properties, have a relatively low thermal conductivity. One approach to change this is ...
Combining polymers with small amounts of stiff carbon-based nanofillers such as graphene or graphene oxide is expected to yield low-density nanocomposites with exceptional mechanical properties. However, such nanocomposites have remained elusive because of incompatibilities betwe ...
Amorphous titanium oxide nanoparticles were prepared from titanium isopropoxide. In situ measurements reveal an extraordinary high capacity of 810 mAh/g on the first discharge. Upon cycling at a charge/discharge rate of 33.5 mA/g, this capacity gradually decreases to 200 mAh/g af ...
