ON the hypothesis of the existence of ‘free electrons’ in metals, Drude, Lorentz, and recently Sommerfeld have explained the Wiedemann and Franz law, namely, that the ratio of the thermal and ...

Packed with numerous examples, illustrations, and homework problems with answers, this is a graduate book that describes atomic-level kinetics of thermal energy storage, transport, and transformation ...

Polypropylene, polyethylene, and polyurethane are three base materials widely used in the industry for pipeline insulation. Their thermal conductivities are given in Table 9.1 (Carter et al., 2003).

Materials informatics revealed new information on the structure-property relationship in OIPCs, enabling the discovery of new compounds with high ionic conductivities.

Organic ionic solid electrolytes (OIPCs) offer various desirable properties, with high potential as solid electrolytes for all-solid-state rechargeable batteries. However, they still need improvement ...

Increasing the thermal and electrical conductivities of typically insulating polymers, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and nylon, has the potential of greatly increasing the market for these ...

In this work, researchers in the DNI study the interaction between COF functional groups and MXene surface groups, the influence of synthesis conditions on the composite conductivities and the ...

Prestone's new formulations have been engineered to reduce fires caused by thermal runaway, prevent corrosion and improve the ...

demonstrated an experimental method in which thermal effects are deduced from how a device heats substrates with different thermal conductivities. "We prepared antiferromagnetic samples on silicon ...

The surge in the adoption of renewable energy, coupled with the rapid growth of the electric vehicle market in recent years ...

The recent growth in ASSBs is largely due to the discovery of different halide, oxide, and sulfide-based solid electrolytes, ...
