Thermally Conductive Polyethylene/Expanded Graphite Composites as Heat Transfer Surface: Mechanical, Thermo-Physical and Surface Behavior by Patrik Sobolčiak (4401364)

“…This enhanced surface wettability was retained over a long time with only a 9% and 18% decrease in RF and corona plasma-treated samples’ surface energy after two months. …”

CD146, a novel target of CD44-signaling, suppresses breast tumor cell invasion by Allal Ouhtit (14153256)

“…More interestingly, activation of CD44 decreased cellular CD146 and increased soluble CD146 through CD44-dependent activation of MMP. …”

Polyaniline/Polystyrene Blends: In-Depth Analysis of the Effect of Sulfonic Acid Dopant Concentration on AC Conductivity Using Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy by Noora Al-Thani (14147829)

“…Increasing CSA resulted in a decrease in the AC conductivity of the blends. This behaviour was explained in terms of the availability of a lone pair of electrons of the NH groups in the polyaniline, which are typically attacked by the electron-withdrawing sulfonic acid groups of CSA. …”

Dividend policy and corporate investment under information shocks by Harakeh, Mostafa

Effect of sintering temperature of NBT–6BT lead-free ceramics on the structural, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties by Slimani, Ahmed

“…The XRD results show that the 850 °C is the best calcination temperature, where the NBT-6BT ceramic had the largest crystallite size with a dense sample, 96% of the theoretical value. However, the density decreased significantly with increasing the calcination temperature above 850 °C due to the secondary phase formation. …”

Effect of anions on the structural, morphological and dielectric properties of hydrothermally synthesized hydroxyapatite nanoparticles by Lakshmanaperumal Sundarabharathi (14152482)

“…The εʹ and dielectric loss (εʹʹ) values for the HA nanoparticles decrease with increase in the applied frequency as well. …”

Crumpled MXene nanosheets for sensing of ascorbic acid in food, biological fluids, and erythrocytes in-vitro microenvironment by Shabi Abbas Zaidi (4234354)

“…The developed electrochemical sensor was used to determine the AA in various actual samples such as juice, urine, serum, and erythrocytes spiked with AA with excellent recoveries in the 94–103 % range. …”

Fluid-Structure-Acoustic coupling analysis for external laminar and turbulent fluid flows by Tohid, Adibi

“…The results indicate that the transmission loss is 27% more at the elastic plate’s highest position. By decreasing the length of the elastic plate by 50%, the mean transmission loss is reduced by 9%. …”
