Review on Graphene Oxide Composites
Abstract: Addition of inert nanomaterials to cement composites is gaining interest. Graphene Oxide is one such inert additive which can impart modifications in cement hydration, improve strength and durability of cement based materials. Research on graphene oxide (GO) is intensified in the recent years for its versatile applications emanating from its very small particle size. This comprehensive review will provide the fundamentals of GO and understand the effects of GO addition …

Effect Of Capping Agents And Annealing On The Optical Properties Of (Cd0.8-Zn0.2)S And (Cd0.8-Zn0.2)S:Eu Films Prepared By CBD Technique
Abstract: Thin films of (Cd0.8-Zn0.2)S and (Cd0.8-Zn0.2)S:Eu are prepared by Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD) technique on glass substrates at 60ºC temperature by adding Mercaptoethanol and Methanol as capping agents(CA). The films were annealed at 400°C for two minutes and their optical properties were studied. The effect of the presence of capping agents and annealing was investigated. The optical constants such as refractive index, extinction coefficient, optical and electrical conductivity, real and …

Study of Mechanical Properties of Aluminum Nanocomposites using Auto Ignition Technique
Abstract: Al2O3 - high ZrO2 nanocomposite was synthesized by auto-ignition technique using metal nitrate and citric acid with a ratio of citrate: nitrate equal to 1:1.5. The precursor zirconium oxynitrite was derived from precipitation of zirconium oxycloride followed by dissolution of gel in nitric acid. The thermal decomposition behaviour of the gel was studied in order to study the decomposition behaviour and to determine the crystallization temperature. The effect of calcination …
