Exfoliation mechanisms of 2D materials and their applications (2022)
Journal Article
Islam, M. A., Serles, P., Kumral, B., Demingos, P. G., Qureshi, T., Meiyazhagan, A., …Filleter, T. (2022). Exfoliation mechanisms of 2D materials and their applications. Applied Physics Reviews, 9(4), 041301. https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0090717

Due to the strong in-plane but weak out-of-plane bonding, it is relatively easy to separate nanosheets of two-dimensional (2D) materials from their respective bulk crystals. This exfoliation of 2D materials can yield large 2D nanosheets, hundreds of... Read More about Exfoliation mechanisms of 2D materials and their applications.

Graphene-based anti-corrosive coating on steel for reinforced concrete infrastructure applications: Challenges and potential (2022)
Journal Article
Qureshi, T., Wang, G., Mukherjee, S., Islam, M., Filleter, T., Singh, C. V., & Panesar, D. K. (2022). Graphene-based anti-corrosive coating on steel for reinforced concrete infrastructure applications: Challenges and potential. Construction and Building Materials, 351, 128947. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2022.128947

Steel corrosion has been a major perpetual issue of concern for durability and structural integrity of steel and reinforced concrete infrastructure. Polymeric, zinc-galvanic and chromate conversion coatings are commonly applied to protect typical ste...

The role of graphene and its derivatives in modifying different phases of geopolymer composites: A review (2021)
Journal Article
Krishna, R., Mishra, J., Nanda, B., Patro, S. K., Adetayo, A., & Qureshi, T. S. (2021). The role of graphene and its derivatives in modifying different phases of geopolymer composites: A review. Construction and Building Materials, 306, Article 124774. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2021.124774

There is broad agreement among researchers that the next facing of the construction material industry is ‘geopolymer composites’, also called ‘green composites. Although geopolymer composites have been extensively investigated as a new sustainable bu...

Application of graphene in fiber-reinforced cementitious composites: A review (2021)
Journal Article
Wu, S., Qureshi, T., & Wang, G. (2021). Application of graphene in fiber-reinforced cementitious composites: A review. Energies, 14(15), Article 4614. https://doi.org/10.3390/en14154614

Graphene with fascinating properties has been deemed as an excellent reinforcement for cementitious composites, enabling construction materials to be smarter, stronger, and more durable. However, some challenges such as dispersion issues and high cos... Read More about Application of graphene in fiber-reinforced cementitious composites: A review.
