Recycling End-of-life Polycarbonate in Steelmaking; Study of Carbon Dissolution in Molten Iron
M. Hussein N. Assadi, Veena Sahajwalla
The scarcity of fossil fuels as carbon resources has motivated the steelmaking industry to search for new carbon sources such as end-of-life polymeric products. Using $\textit{ab i…
High-Density Polyethylene Degradation into Low Molecular Weight Gases at 1823 K: An Atomistic Simulation
Leyla Ramin, M. Hussein N. Assadi, Veena Sahajwalla
Using molecular dynamics simulation, we present a comprehensive study of the volatile thermal degradation of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) across a temperature range of 300 K to…
Polymers' surface interactions with molten iron: a theoretical study
M. Hussein N. Assadi, Veena Sahajwalla
Environmental concerns are the chief drive for more innovative recycling techniques for end-of-life polymeric products. One attractive option is taking advantage of C and H content…
Extraordinary water adsorption characteristics of graphene oxide
B. Lian, S. De Luca, Y. You +6
The laminated structure of graphene oxide (GO) confers unique interactions with water molecules which may be utilised in a range of applications that require materials with tuneabl…
On the mechanism of gas adsorption for pristine, defective and functionalized graphene
Y. You, J. Deng, X. Tan +5
Defect is no longer deemed an adverse aspect of graphene. Contrarily, it can pave ways of extending applicability of graphene. Here, we discuss the effects of three types of defect…
