In the pursuit of high power and energy density electrochemical energy storage
technologies, hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs) have drawn increasing research attention due …

In this work, 2D Mo and Ti MXenes (Mo 2 TiC 2 and Ti 3 C 2) were synthesised from the
chemical etching of their MAX phases (Mo 2 TiAlC 2 and Ti 3 AlC 2). The physicochemical …

During the micro-injection molding process, the lifetime of mold inserts is severely limited by
high-pressure impact conditions and demolding friction. To investigate the tribological …

The superhydrophobic surface can be used to separate castable concrete materials and
moulds instead of waste oil which has the risk of contamination. In this study, a low cost …

The development of nanoribbon-like structures is an effective strategy to harness the
potential benefits of graphenic materials due to their excellent electrical properties …

Supercapacitors have attracted increasing research interest in the search for high-power
and high-energy-density energy storage systems, because they combine the exceptional …

To improve the anti-sticking performance of tire molds, six types of coatings (ie, nano-
ceramic coating, bilayer waterborne polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coating, fluorinated …

In micro-injection molding, polymer/mold interface adhesion may cause severe deformation
or damage of micro features on the molded products. To reduce the interface adhesion and …

There is a wide application field for anti-adhesive and hydrophobic coatings, stretching from
self-cleaning surfaces over anti-graffiti and release coatings to demolding aids in the …

Background: Micro-texturing is an increasingly used technique that aims at improving the
functional behaviour of components during their useful life, and it is applied in different …
