Spring 2010
Electrical resistivity is an important indicator of metal thin film quality. In this study, the influence of argon working pressure on the properties of metal thin films was evaluated, and the thickness effect on the resistivity of metal thin films was investigated. The sputtered thin film...

THE INTERACTION BETWEEN DEPLETION FLOCCULATION AND MOLECULAR LIQUID-LIQUID PHASE SEPARATION MECHANISMS
DownloadSpring 2018
There is growing interest in the formulation and application of nano colloids + non-adsorbing polymer in fields of nanomedicine, hydrocarbon production, and environmental science. Successful applications rely on a detailed understanding of the related fluid thermophysical and thermochemical...

The Investigation of Lanthanum Strontium Chromite (LSC) Based Perovskite Anodes for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs)
DownloadFall 2016
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) can be fueled with diverse raw natural gases which usually contain a carbon source and significant amount of H2S. Both of them severely deactivate the Ni-YSZ cermet anode materials and limit their wide applications. Therefore, the potential anode catalysts developed...

The Mechanism of Floc Formation by Hydrodynamic Cavitation and Its Application on Fine Particle Flotation
DownloadFall 2018
In recent decades, hydrodynamic cavitation has been used to enhance fine particle flotation recovery in mineral engineering. Such an increase was mainly attributed to the generation of flocs/aggregates of fine particles during the hydrodynamic cavitation process. However, the mechanism of floc...

The Microstructure, Morphology and Mechanical Properties of Rapidly Solidified Al-10wt%Si Alloy
DownloadSpring 2018
Hypoeutectic Al-Si alloys are widely used in both the automotive and aerospace industries, due to their strong corrosion resistance, good castability and relatively high strength-to-weight ratio. Despite this wide use, these alloys have a major limitation related to the Si phase that forms...

Spring 2011
Polymers of various types are added to crude oils and oil products to prevent wax deposition, break water-in-oil emulsions, reduce drag in pipelines and to stabilize asphaltenes. In mixtures where a polymer does not adsorb on colloids, two stable liquid phases can arise due to depletion...

Fall 2013
In this thesis, a cellulose nanofibril (CNF) preparation method in the biorefinery platform is described, and the product is characterized and compared to commercially available varieties. CNF is a bundle of cellulose microfibrils with diameter in 5-100 nanometer range and length reaching to...

The Quasi-Steady-State Approximation for Computational Acceleration of Single Particle Modeling in Polyolefin Processes
DownloadFall 2024
In the field of polymer reactor engineering, accurately modeling the complex kinetics and mass transfer mechanics of a supported-catalyst reaction is essential for designing efficient and scalable polymerization processes. However, mesoscale modeling, which involves detailed single-particle...
