Item type:Publication, Optical Properties of CuCdS Thin Film Prepared by Vacuum Thermal Evaporation Technique(2023-01-01); This study reports on the synthesis and characterizations of copper cadmium sulfide (CuCdS) thin films prepared using the vacuum thermal evaporation technique with copper sulfide and CdS as precursors in a 1:1 molar ratio. The structural properties of the thin films were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) which revealed that the main composition of the thin film was CdS with the preferred orientation of the (101) plane. The optical properties were examined using UV–Vis spectrophotometry. The photosensitivity of the films was determined using I–V measurements performed with a two-probe technique. The prepared CuCdS thin films have high optical transmittance of 92%. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Comparative study of vacuum arc-remelting and spark plasma sintering processes on microstructure and corrosion behavior of Cp-Ti for biomedical implant applications(2025-11-01); ; Hankoy, MontreeTitanium (Ti) and its alloys are widely used for biomedical applications due to their excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility. However, the selection of an appropriate manufacturing process is critical to ensuring the optimal performance of Ti-based implants. This study investigates the effects of two fabrication methods –vacuum arc remelting (VAR) and spark plasma sintering (SPS) – on the microstructure and corrosion behavior of commercially pure titanium (Cp-Ti). VAR-Ti ingots were fabricated using arc-melting with multiple remelting cycles, whereas SPS-Ti specimens were sintered from Ti powders under pressure and pulsed current in a high-vacuum environment. Both specimens were subsequently heat-treated at 800 °C and furnace cooled. Microstructural characterization revealed coarser grains and porosity in VAR-Ti, while SPS-Ti showed refined, uniform α-phase structures. Electrochemical tests, including OCP, polarization, EIS, and ICP-MS, indicated slightly enhanced corrosion resistance in SPS-Ti, attributed to its defect-free microstructure. XPS analysis confirmed TiO<inf>2</inf> surface formation on both samples. Additionally, both materials exhibited high ductility and excellent biocompatibility, with cell viability exceeding ISO 10993-5 thresholds. These findings highlight the advantage of SPS in producing defect-minimized Cp-Ti with improved corrosion behavior for biomedical applications. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Development of Sustainable Biomaterials Composites from Waste Materials (Spent Mushroom Compost, Garlic Shell, and Water Hyacinth) with Edible Mushroom Mycelium-Based(2026-01-01); ; Purpose: To evaluate performance and add value of bio-based degradable waste materials of spent mushroom compost cooperate with garlic shell, and water hyacinth with mushroom mycelium-based methods. Method: The Ganoderma lucidum, Lentinus polychrous, L. squarrosulus, and Pleurotus sajor-caju were used to study bio-based composites from various formula of waste materials (spent mushroom compost (Agrocybe cylindracea or P. ostreatus), garlic shell, and water hyacinth). Then we selected the best species and the formula of biomaterial composites to prepare pot prototypes. Finally, the biomaterial composite pots were measured physical and mechanical properties. Results: L. squarrosulus exhibited the fastest mycelial growth and highly effective to composed materials. Then, selected further pot prototypes with variation formulation and physical and mechanical properties were presented; density ranged from 0.18−0.22 g cm<sup>-3</sup> and water absorption reaching between 172−250% in 24 hr., the absorption increases more gradually, reaching 302%−368% after 168 hr. Variations between formulation, the composites AC-F1 and PO-F1 exhibited superior water absorption. Whereas composites AC-F2 and PO-F2 demonstrated the lowest water absorption. For the compressive strength significant differences between samples prepared with spent mushroom compost from A. cylindracea and P. ostreatus. The spent mushroom compost from P. ostreatus is higher compressive strength, ranging from 385.4−451.5 kPa. In contrast the spent mushroom compost derived from A. cylindracea ranged between 174.9−197.3 kPa. Conclusion: The mycelium-based biodegradable composite produced demonstrates excellent performance and suitability for various applications. As such, they contribute to efficient upcycling and support zero-waste practices. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Enhancing the hydrogen permeation of alumina composite porous membranes via graphene oxide addition(2023-01-12); ; ; Vichaphund, SupawanGraphene oxide (GO) membranes have attracted considerable interest for hydrogen (H<inf>2</inf>) purification applications. However, the addition of GO into matrix materials to enhance the efficiency of H<inf>2</inf> permeation remains a challenge. In this study, the fabrication of alumina/graphene oxide (AGO) composites containing varying contents of GO (0.5–3.0 wt.%) was investigated. The AGO composites were formed into pellets and sintered for 2 h at 1500 °C. Accordingly, the presence of GO in the membranes following sintering was confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. Additionally, the porosity of the AGO composites increased from 3.7% to 26.9% as the GO concentration increased from 0.5 wt.% to 3.0 wt.%. Furthermore, the average pore diameter of the AGO composites was in the range of 87–228 nm, and the pore size distribution was unimodal. The performance of the AGO membranes was investigated for the permeance of single gases H<inf>2</inf> and N<inf>2</inf> at 30–500 °C to evaluate their potential for H<inf>2</inf> separation applications. The AGO membranes with a GO addition of 2.5 and 3.0 wt.% exhibited a high hydrogen permeance of 232–410 × 10<sup>−6</sup> mol m<sup>−2</sup> s<sup>−1</sup> Pa<sup>−1</sup>, which was approximately 10 times greater than that of pristine Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> membrane. Additionally, the ideal H<inf>2</inf>/N<inf>2</inf> selectivity values ranged from 4.02 to 4.20. Furthermore, gas permeation through the AGO membrane was observed to follow the Knudsen diffusion mechanism. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Characterization of Fluoride-added Hydroxyapatite Derived from Eggshells for Dental Application(2023-01-01); ; Hydroxyapatite (HA) is one of the potential biomaterials used for treating dental defects. It can be incorporated with fluoride to enhance its anti-caries properties, though other properties could be dependent on processing technique. Hence, this study aims to characterize the influence of sintering on the properties of fluoride-added HA derived from eggshells. FTIR and XRD techniques are used to characterize the chemical and crystal structures of the samples, whilst dissolution test is carried out to characterize material degradation in the acidic environment. The results show that sintering increased the crystallinity in both HA and fluoride-add HA (F-HA) samples, which corresponds with the enhanced stability during the dissolution test. Moreover, it is also found that the addition of fluoride could further stabilize the material structure, though the impurities found in all the samples still need to be minimized. These findings suggest that sintering and fluoride addition could potentially enhance anti-caries properties of eggshell-derived HA, which could be beneficial for dental application in future subject to further process optimization and analysis.
