Journal Article
Elnabawy, E., Sun, D., Shearer, N., & Shyha, I. (2023). Electro-blown spinning: New insight into the effect of electric field and airflow hybridized forces on the production yield and characteristics of nanofiber membranes. Journal of Science: Advanced Materials and Devices, 8(2), Article 100552. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsamd.2023.100552

Electro-blown spinning (EBS) is an emergent hybridized nanofibers formation technology. Recently, there has been a great interest in introducing this novel method for producing sub-micron, and nanofibers into several applications. For the first time,...

Effect of SDS on the dispersion stability of YSZ particles in an Electroless nickel solution (2013)
Journal Article
Nwosu, N. O., Davidson, A. M., & Shearer, N. W. (2013). Effect of SDS on the dispersion stability of YSZ particles in an Electroless nickel solution. Chemical Engineering Communications, 200(12), 1623-1634. https://doi.org/10.1080/00986445.2012.757549

Optimum particle dispersion is an essential feature for composite coatings carried out on the autocatalytic electroless nickel plating platform. In this regard, the potential influence of an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), on the d...
