CHARACTERIZATION OF UNCOATED AND SPUTTER COATED NANOFIBERS

Meduri, Praveen

Abstract Details

2005, Master of Science, University of Akron, Chemical Engineering.
Synthesis and characterization of nanofibers is receiving a great deal of attention because of their potential as materials for nano-electronics. Surface energy plays an important role in understanding the wetting, adhesion and cohesion properties of materials. Synthesizing and effectively controlling the surface energy of nanomaterials, could highly improve their efficiency in different applications. This thesis is primarily focused on the surface energy characterization of uncoated and sputter coated nanofibers. The objectives include the extension of a proposed method in literature for calculating the surface energy of nanoparticles and preparation of optimal surface energy thin films of boron nitride (BN) on nanofibers.
