Nanoparticles and nanofillers have undergone substantial research and are known to have profound industrial applications due to their significant reduction in the cost of production and modification of properties. In this review, a thorough review of nanoparticles and nanofillers is performed. The differe...
The performance of organic solar cells (OSCs) has increased substantially over the past 10 years, owing to the development of various high-performance organic electron–acceptor and electron–donor materials, including polymers, small molecules and fulle
Thus, it is unclear whether the widespread use of biodegradable plastics will reduce the adverse impacts of MP pollution. The accumulation of MPs in the soil has a variety of negative effects on the environment. MPs can alter soil physicochemical properties, including pH, bulk density, available ...

Synthetic fibres and plastics is chapter 3 in NCERT Class 8 Science books. Synthetic fibres and plastics are beneficial things in our daily lives, they are made up of long chains of repeating units referred to as polymers. There are two types of fibres which are natural and synthetic. Cotton...
The six types of asbestos are chrysotile, crocidolite, amosite, anthophyllite, tremolite, & actinolite. Learn about their characteristics and health risks.
This chapter provides an overview of the common types of defects found in various structural materials and joints in aircraft. Materials manufacturing methods (including large-scale production) have been established in the aircraft industry. However, as
