Evaluation of mechanical, physical, and morphological properties of epoxy composites reinforced with different date palm fillers

The present study deals with the fabrication of epoxy composites reinforced with 50 wt% of date palm leaf sheath (G), palm tree trunk (L), fruit bunch stalk (AA), and leaf stalk (A) as filler by the hand lay-up technique. The developed composites were characterized and compared in terms of mechanical, physical and morphological properties. Mechanical tests revealed that the addition of AA improves tensile (20.60–40.12 MPa), impact strength (45.71–99.45 J/m), flexural strength (32.11–110.16 MPa) and density (1.13–1.90 g/cm3). The water absorption and thickness swelling values observed in this study were higher for AA/epoxy composite, revealing its higher cellulosic content, compared to the other composite materials. The examination of fiber pull-out, matrix cracks, and fiber dislocations in the microstructure and fractured surface morphology of the developed materials confirmed the trends for mechanical properties. Overall, from results analysis it can be concluded that reinforcing epoxy matrix with AA filler effectively improves the properties of the developed composite materials. Thus, date palm fruit bunch stalk filler might be considered as a sustainable and green promising reinforcing material similarly to other natural fibers and can be used for diverse commercial, structural, and nonstructural applications requiring high mechanical resistance

Synthesis of Novel Heteroatom-Doped Porous-Organic Polymers as Environmentally Efficient Media for Carbon Dioxide Storage

The high carbon dioxide emission levels due to the increased consumption of fossil fuels has led to various environmental problems. Efficient strategies for the capture and storage of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide are crucial in reducing their concentrations in the environment. Considering this, herein, three novel heteroatom-doped porous-organic polymers (POPs) containing phosphate units were synthesized in high yields from the coupling reactions of phosphate esters and 1,4-diaminobenzene (three mole equivalents) in boiling ethanol using a simple, efficient, and general procedure. The structures and physicochemical properties of the synthesized POPs were established using various techniques. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) images showed that the surface morphologies of the synthesized POPs were similar to coral reefs. They had grooved networks, long range periodic macropores, amorphous surfaces, and a high surface area (SBET = 82.71–213.54 m2/g). Most importantly, they had considerable carbon dioxide storage capacity, particularly at high pressure. The carbon dioxide uptake at 323 K and 40 bar for one of the POPs was as high as 1.42 mmol/g (6.00 wt %). The high carbon dioxide uptake capacities of these materials were primarily governed by their geometries. The POP containing a meta-phosphate unit leads to the highest CO2 uptake since such geometry provides a highly distorted and extended surface area network compared to other POPs

Sr promoted Ni/W–Zr catalysts for highly efficient CO₂ methanation: unveiling the role of surface basicity

This study explores the employment of CO2 methanation for carbon dioxide utilization and global warming mitigation. For the first time, in this work, we combine the interesting properties of the WO3–ZrO2 support and the benefits of Sr to improve the performance of Ni-based catalysts in this reaction. Sr loading on 5Ni/W–Zr samples is increased to 3 wt %, resulting in improved surface basicity through strong basic site formation. After 300 min, the 5Ni + 3Sr/W–Zr catalyst exhibits high activity and stability, achieving 90% CO2 conversion and 82% CH4 yield compared to 62 and 57% on 5Ni/W–Zr. Limited sintering and absence of carbon deposits are confirmed by temperature-programmed oxidation, XRD, Raman, and TEM analyses at 350 °C for 300 min. Sr promotion creates additional CO2 adsorption and conversion sites, enhancing the catalytic performance.<br/

COx -free H2 Production via Catalytic Decomposition of CH4 over Fe Supported on Tungsten oxide-activated Carbon Catalyst: Effect of Tungsten Loading

Production of COx-free H2 from CH4 (a major global warming contributor) over cheap catalysts is a dominant task for the scientific community to accomplish environmental-friendly clean H2 energy sources. Herein, a tungsten oxide-activated carbon-supported Fe catalyst is prepared by impregnation method, characterized by X-ray diffraction, surface area-porosity measurement, temperature programmed reduction/oxidation and thermogravimetry analysis. 30wt.%Fe supported tungsten oxide incorporated activated carbon catalyst is found superior to 30 wt% Fe supported on activated carbon incorporated tungsten oxide due to higher surface area and high concentration of reducible catalytic active sites. 30wt.%Fe impregnated over 25 wt%WO3-75 wt%activated carbon support catalyst has the highest concentration of reducible surface-active species and it had excellent performance among other tungsten oxide incorporated catalysts. The catalyst showed 66.04% CH4 conversion, 63.12% H2 yield and YH2 /CCH4 > 0.9 initially which didn’t fall below 35 % up to 160-minutes. Improper matching between the rate of carbon formation and the rate of diffusion over a highly crystalline 30Fe50W50Ac catalyst resulted in rapid deactivation
