The world is filled with electronics devices that use batteries and supercapacitors, such as laptops, cellphones, and cameras, creating the need for the efficient and effective production of good energy storage devices. The depletion of fossil fuels demands alternative sources of energy, which prompted the creation of solar cell (PV) technologies and fuel cells. The introduction of graphene oxides to these technologies help improve the performance of various energy storage and conversion devices. This book provides a broad review of graphene oxide synthesis and applications in various energy storage devices. The chapters explore various fundamental principles and the foundations of different energy conversion and storage devices with respect to their advancement due to emergence of graphene oxide, such as supercapacitors, batteries and fuel cells. This book will enable research towards improving the performance of various energy storage devices using graphene oxides and will be a valuable reference for researchers and scientists working across physics, engineering, and chemistry on different types of graphene oxide-based energy storage and conversion devices.
This book explores the revolutionary impact of nanomaterials in energy storage, medicine, environmental remediation, and materials science. It highlights the potential of diverse materials, from sodium-ion battery cathodes to plant-derived silver nanoparticles for water remediation. The book also examines nanotechnology's role in enhancing animal nutrition, advancing mesoporous silica nanoparticles for drug delivery, and integrating industrial waste like fly ash into polyurethane for sustainability. The study of metal oxide nanowires for optoelectronics further illustrates nanomaterials' transformative power. Through innovative synthesis and characterization, the book presents nanotechnology as a key driver of sustainable development, offering valuable insights for researchers, professionals, and students in materials science, environmental sciences, and nanotechnology.
Advances in Nanocomposites - Synthesis, Characterization and Industrial Applications was conceived as a comprehensive reference volume on various aspects of functional nanocomposites for engineering technologies. The term functional nanocomposites signifies a wide area of polymer/material science and engineering, involving the design, synthesis and study of nanocomposites of increasing structural sophistication and complexity useful for a wide range of chemical, physicochemical and biological/biomedical processes. "Emerging technologies" are also broadly understood to include new technological developments, beginning at the forefront of conventional industrial practices and extending into anticipated and speculative industries of the future. The scope of the present book on nanocomposites and applications extends far beyond emerging technologies. This book presents 40 chapters organized in four parts systematically providing a wealth of new ideas in design, synthesis and study of sophisticated nanocomposite structures.
With the rapid developments in microchips, mobile communication and satellite communication, electromagnetic interference (EMI) or Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) has received significant attention to ensure high performance of electronic items and to avoid any adverse effect on human health. EMI is one of the main factors that weaken electronic system performance and is considered as a modern form of environmental pollution. Many efforts have been made to reduce EMI, including industrial regulations and R&D funding.The expansion of the IT industry has promoted the development of microwave absorbing materials (MAMs) and EMI shielding materials to improve the resistance of smart devices to...
This textbook aims to ensure that advances in medical textiles are addressed and that recent developments are able to be appreciated and understood not only by medical practitioners and healthcare personnel but also by textile scientists and technologists. The idea is to stimulate collaborative research and development in the field of medical textiles and to equip researchers with an understanding of the steps they need to take to ensure that their efforts, be they to develop new devices for implantation or items for external application, are carried out in such a way as to improve their effectiveness and enhance the prospects for their implementation. Attention is drawn to the need to impro...
Theoretical, computational, and experimental electromagnetic modeling and characterization This engineering and scientific handbook offers extensive coverage of electromagnetic modeling and characterization of composite materials from the theoretical, computational, and experimental points of view. You will get unique data for non-conducting dielectrics, semiconducting, conducting, and magnetic materials, and composites composed of two or more molecularly distinct compounds. The goal of the book is to contribute to current and visionary electromagnetic composite applications and extend the existing database for composites. Electromagnetic Composites Handbook: Models, Measurement, and Characterization is presented in a clear, hierarchical style, progressing from basic concepts through simple and more complex models, and finally to data verifying the models. Provides a large collection of tabulated data for more than 300 complex composite materials Information presented will aid in the development of multifunctional material designs The data is a direct extension from Arthur Von Hippel's landmark Dielectric Materials and Application
