The role of MgB12H12 in the hydrogen desorption process of Mg(BH4)(2)

Andreas Züttel

The presence of MgB12H12 has often been considered as the major obstacle for the reversible hydrogen storage in Mg(BH4)(2). This communication provides evidence that the MgB12H12 phase (or B12H12 monomer) does not exist in the decomposition products ...

Fracture Toughness Healing in Epoxy Containing Both Epoxy and Amine Loaded Capsules

Véronique Michaud, Sam Neuser

The feasibility of self-healing epoxy matrices using the same chemistry as the matrix material, namely a standard epoxy-amine system, is demonstrated. The two-component self-healing system is encapsulated in core-shell structures using standard in situ cur ...

Optical transmission as a fast and non-destructive tool for determination of ethylene-co-vinyl acetate curing state in photovoltaic modules

Christophe Ballif, Yun Luo, Hengyu Li, Laure-Emmanuelle Perret Aebi

Poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) is the primary polymer used for encapsulation of photovoltaic (PV) modules. Its degree of cross-linking (gel content) is taken as a major quality reference. The EVA gel content is normally measured by Soxhlet extractio ...
