Time to read: 6 min While electric motors drive vastly different applications, their core function remains the same—to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. Numerous articles highlight the characteristics of each unique motor on the market, but they can be simplified into two overarching categories: AC (alternating current) motors and DC (direct current) motors. Each […]

During a new study, the effect of monofunctional, difunctional, and trifunctional reactive epoxy diluents (RDs) on curing of epoxy resins by amine hardeners was studied. It was determined that curing of the epoxy resins containing difunctional RD was characterised by the lowest activation energy Ea. The shortest gelation time under curing was characteristic for the […]

In a recently published study, multi-type nanoparticles in superhydrophobic PU-based coatings were studied towards self-cleaning, self-healing and mechanochemical durability. Mechanochemical durability is a key limited factor for superhydrophobic coatings to produce the real applications in some important fields. Herein, the superhydrophobic PU-based coatings were firstly synthesised with silica particles (F-SiO2) and carbon nanotube (F-CNT) as […]
