Abstract: The barrier properties of composite membranes containing either zero-valent iron nanoparticles or powdered activated carbon mixed into an aqueous clay suspension and sandwiched between two sheets of high-density polyethylene ...

Abstract: To improve the performance of polymer-based containment barriers with respect to the breakthrough of chlorinated solvents, a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) membrane containing zero-valent iron

Abstract: Zero-valent iron particles are an effective remediation technology for ground water contaminated with halogenated organic compounds. In particular, nanoscale zero-valent iron is a promising material for remediation because ...

Abstract: The next generation aircraft engines are designed to be lighter and stronger than engines currently in use by using carbon fiber composites. In order to certify these engines, ballistic impact tests and computational ...
