The results show that the Young＇s moduli and tensile strength of graphene obviously decrease after Ni coating. The results also show that the mechanical properties of Al matrix can be obviously increased by embedding a single graphene sheet. From the simulation, we also find that the Young＇s modulus and tensile strength of the Ni-coated graphene/Al composite is obviously larger than those of the uncoated graphene/Al composite. The increased magnitude of the Young＇s modulus and tensile strength of graphene/Al composite are 52.27% and 32.32% at 0.01 K, respectively, due to Ni coating. By exploring the effects of temperature on the mechanical properties of single graphene sheet and their embedded Al matrix composites, it is found that the higher temperature leads to the lower critical strain and tensile strength.展开更多

As a result, when fiber content varies from 0.03% to 0.14%, though the synthetic fiber has more influence on low strength-grade concrete than on high strength-grade concrete, it makes little difference to the mechanical behavior of concrete in general. Test results and applications in construction show that the synthetic fiber can enhance the energy-absorbing capacity and deformation performance of concrete effectively.展开更多

A composite is formed in two or more phases （i.e., organic and inorganic phases）. A composite that has specified energy band gap, electrical conductivity, and tensile strength can be used as semiconductor material. The objective of this research was to study the effect of production methods, concentration and type of metal oxide filler （TiO2, A1203, Fe203, and ZnO） on structure, energy band gap, and electrical conductivity of composites. Composites were prepared using a melt intercalation process with tapioca as a matrix and addition of 1%, 3%, 5o and 7% filler concentrations, and sonication processing time in interval of 40, 50, and 60 min. Structure and morphology of the composite were analyzed using FT-IR, XRD, SEM, and TEM. UV-vis was used to measure the energy band gap while electrical conductivity was measured using a potentiostat through determination of resistivity. In addition, tensile strength and elongation were measured by ASTM 822-02. The energy band gap of the tapioca/metal oxide composite was between 4.9-1.62 eV. Electrical conductivity showed a percolation thresholds for concentrations of 3%-5% TiO2, A1203, and Fe203 and 7% ZnO. The tapioca/ZnO composite with 5% ZnO and 50 min of processing time showed a maximum tensile strength of 74.84 kgf/cm2, 6% elongation, 1.27 - 10^-7ohm^-1cm^-1 electrical conductivity and energy band gap of 3.27 eV. The characteristics described show that the tapioca/metal oxide composite can be used as a semiconductor material.展开更多
