Nanofluid based on activated hybrid of biomass carbon/graphene oxide: Synthesis, thermo-physical and electrical properties
In the present study a mixture of empty fruit bunch (EFB) fiber as a matrix material and graphene oxide (GO) as a guest was activated by processing with KOH. The structural characterization was performed by various techniques such as field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission...
