Enhancing Performance of Hybrid Natural Fiber Reinforced Polymer: Insights into Processing, Characterization and Machining
Abstract: Natural fibre reinforced polymer composites (N-FRP) have gained popularity in recent years as an alternative to regular polymer composites, owing to growing environmental concerns. Natural fibers are becoming increasingly popular due to their outstanding properties such as flexibility, strength, compatibility with living creatures, and impact resistance. A notable application of natural fibers is in the medical industry, with the goal of producing cost-effective, sustainable, and long-lasting products. Combining different fibers …

Corrosion and Corrosion Protection of Cast iron due to Bio-organism
Abstract: Cast iron is a high tensile strength metal. It is generally used for making tools, pipe fitting, electrical fitting equipment and rail track. It interacts with corrosive substances to develop electrochemical cell on their interface. Corrosive substances are acids, bases, salts, bio-wastes, particulates and pollutants. These substances produce hostile medium for materials. These harmful wastes discharge by industries, households, agricultural, urbanization, development of infrastructure, construction works, thermal power stations, hydropower, …

Na-Air Battery: The Battery of the Future—A Review
Abstract: Metal-ion batteries came into the limelight with the invention of Zn-ion battery as early as 1878, but its commercial viability came into picture in 1990 and lithium-ion cell in 1977. Since then, a number of metals have been experimented upon and similar rechargeable secondary storage batteries like Al-ion, Na-ion, Sn-ion, Mg-ion, K-ion have been developed. In this type of battery, electrochemical dynamics involves the movement of only one kind of …

Electroactive Graphene–Polymer Nanocomposites for Self-Sustaining and Multifunctional Flexible Devices
Abstract: Graphene–reinforced polymer–composites were developed and systematically investigated to explore their multifunctionality in flexible electronic applications. The study specifically aims to correlate graphene-induced structure–property–function relationships with electroactive performance and self-sustaining behaviour in flexible devices. The hybridization of electroactive polymers—polyaniline (PANI), poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): polystyrene sulphonate (PEDOT:PSS), and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)—with graphene nanoplatelets enabled simultaneous enhancement of electroactivity, energy-harvesting, and sensing functionalities. Morphological studies confirmed uniform graphene dispersion at 5 wt.% loading, forming continuous …

Thermal Behavior and Insulation Strategies for Li-FeS₂ Thermal Batteries: An ANSYS Simulation Study
Abstract: Thermal batteries are special electrochemical systems in which a great amount of energy is delivered during a relatively short period of time. The holding time of the thermal battery's working temperature and cell temperature define its discharge life. Thermal batteries have their advantages comparing other type of batteries, so they are used for several purposes including military field. Thermal batteries usually operate in the internal temperature range of 400 to …
