A Novel Experimental Study on the Rheological Properties and Thermal Conductivity of Halloysite Nanofluids

Nanomaterials, 2020
Nanofluids obtained from halloysite and de-ionized water (DI) were prepared by using surfactants and changing pH for heat-transfer applications. The halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) nanofluids were studied for several volume fractions (0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 vol%)
