ABSTRACT Cellulose is found in the walls of plant cells, making it the most common biopolymer in the world. It is mechanically stable, resistant to hydrolysis, and boasts—especially in its nanoscopic state—a large reactive surface area and low density. To realize reinforcement in rubbers, the large and polar cellulose surface must interact with the nonpolar elastomer matrix. The dispersion of hydrophilic fillers is, however, still a major challenge in rubber technology. In this work, commercially available nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) was incorporated into a nonpolar BIIR via latex mixing. Transmission electron microscopy, tensile testing, swelling, and rheometry were used to characterize the compound properties and the reinforcing potential of NFC. The compounds were compared with the established and highly dispersible standard carbon black N550 with a medium specific surface area. In addition, hybrid filler systems with both particle types were prepared. This yielded well-dispersed nanocomposites of a new kind exhibiting high stiffness, good tensile properties, and reduced material weight.

With the increasingly serious air pollution, it is urgent to build a good indoor environment. How to improve performance of filter fiber materials has become the mainstream approach. In this article, the structure and filtration performances of nonwoven filter fibers before and after impregnation with carbon black were tested and analyzed. The results showed that a carbon black coating layer was wrapped on the surfaces of the changed nonwoven fabric filter fibers. The porosity of fibers decreased from 97.81% to 95.35%. The filtration efficiency of PM1.0, PM2.5, and PM10 increased by 16.8%, 28.0%, and 11.7%, respectively, at the best filtration velocity of 0.8 m/s. The filtration efficiency of PM2.5 had the most significant improvement. But the resistance increased by 1.18 times at the same time. The matching between filtration efficiency and resistance should be considered in using. This study provides reference value for the synthesis and application of new filter materials.

The study of platinum/carbon black (Pt/CB) versus platinum/single wall carbon nanotubes (Pt/SWCNT) and drying temperature on the result products were investigated. The synthesized of Pt/CB versus Pt/SWCNT were used for coating on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) conductive glasses and tested for electrical conductivity properties used for counter electrode in a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC).The result products were characterized in term of chemical composition and microstructure by scanning electron microscope technique (SEM), EDX (JEOL,JSM 5800 LV) and TEM analyses.

In the previous paper, the author reported on a technique for preparing vapor-deposited single crystal films as high resolution standards for electron microscopy. The present paper is intended to describe the preparation of several high resolution standards for dark field microscopy and also to mention some results obtained from these studies. Three preparations were used initially: 1.) Graphitized carbon black, 2.) Epitaxially grown particles of different metals prepared by vapor deposition, and 3.) Particles grown epitaxially on the edge of micro-holes formed in a gold single crystal film.The authors successfully obtained dark field micrographs demonstrating the 3.4Å lattice spacing of graphitized carbon black and the Au single crystal (111) lattice of 2.35Å. The latter spacing is especially suitable for dark field imaging because of its preparation, as in 3.), above. After the deposited film of Au (001) orientation is prepared at 400°C the substrate temperature is raised, resulting in the formation of many square micro-holes caused by partial evaporation of the Au film.
