Biodiesel production requires several distinct processes and technologies, each striving to convert raw materials like vegetable oils, animal fats, or recycled greases into a renewable fuel. The most widely used method is transesterification, where the triglycerides in the feedstock react with an alcohol, typically methanol or ethanol, in the prese
Mechanical Performance Enhancement in CNT Polymer Composites
Polymer composites reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) demonstrate significant enhancements in mechanical properties. The incorporation of CNTs, due to their exceptional stiffness, can lead to a substantial boost in the composite's flexural strength, modulus, and impact resistance. This augmentation stems from the synergistic combination betwee
