Unraveling Synergistic Regulation Mechanism in Nitrogen/Sulfur Co‐Doped Biomass‐Derived Hard Carbon Toward Durable Sodium‐Ion Battery Anodes

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Nitrogen/sulfur co‐doping optimizes the electron and spatial structure of biomass‐derived hard carbon, and the anode demonstrates superior long‐term cycling stability over 2000 cycles, validating an improved “adsorption‐intercalation‐pore filling” mechanism.

INVESTIGATION OF THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OF LUFFA AND LUFFA-COIR REINFORCED EPOXY COMPOSITES

International Journal of Research -GRANTHAALAYAH, 2020
Thermal behavior of luffa and coir reinforced epoxy composites have been evaluated for a constant total fiber volume fraction 0.4Vf by varying the ratio of luffa and coir fiber. Thermal conductivity of luffa-epoxy and luffa-coir reinforced epoxy composite was studied experimentally and analytically in terms of fiber size and fiber volume.

Bio‐Based Multilayer Composites Based on Blended Electrospun Fibers and Luffa Cylindrica for Enhanced Low‐Frequency Noise Absorption

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Bio‐based multilayer composites consisting of Luffa Cylindrica and electrospun microfibers exhibit enhanced sound absorption, shifting peak performance towards lower frequencies. The multilayer configuration improves acoustic wave dissipation, providing a tunable and sustainable solution for urban and traffic‐related noise mitigation.
