  2. 6. Ceria-based nanocomposite electrolyte for low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells

    Author : Ying Ma; Mamoun Muhammed; Peter Lund; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) have attracted much attention because of their potential of providing an efficient, environmentally benign, and fuel-flexible power generation system for both small power units and for large scale power plants. However, conventional SOFCs with yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolyte require high operation temperature (800-1000°C), which presents material degradation problems, as well as other technological complications and economic obstacles.

  4. 7. Ceria-based Nanostructured Materials for Low-Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

    Author : Ying Ma; Mamoun Muhammed; Bin Zhu; Randa Abdel-Karim; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : As one of the most efficient and environmentally benign energy conversion devices, solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) have attracted much attention in recent years. Conventional SOFC with yttria-stabilized zirconia as electrolyte require high operation temperature (800-1000 °C), which causes significant problems like material degradation, as well as other technological complications and economic barrier for wider applications.

  5. 8. Engineering Nanofluids for Heat Transfer Applications

    Author : Nader Nikkam; Toprak Muhammet; Mamoun Muhammed; Yulong Ding; KTH; []
    Keywords : nanofluid; thermal conductivity; viscosity; heat transfer; heat transfer coefficient; HTC; SiC nanoparticles; Cu nanoparticles; mesoporous silica; CNT; microwave synthesis; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Nanofluids (NFs) are nanotechnology-based colloidal dispersion prepared by dispersing nanoparticles (NPs) in conventional liquids, as the base liquid. These advanced fluids have displayed potential to enhance the performance of conventional heat transfer fluids. READ MORE

  6. 9. Environment-Sensitive Multifunctional Drug Delivery Systems

    Author : Jian Qin; Mamoun Muhammed; Marcus Textor; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Materials chemistry; Materialkemi;

    Abstract : Drug delivery systems (DDS) with multiple functionalities such as environment-sensitive drug release mechanisms and visualization agents have motivated the biomedical community as well as materials chemists for more than a decade. This dissertation is concerned with the development of nanoparticles for multifunctional DDS  to tackle several crucial challenges in these complex systems, including polymeric nanospheres which respond to temperature change, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles/polymeric composite for magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents and drug carriers, immunoresponse of nanomaterials and injectable magnetic field sensitive ferrogels.
