A comprehensive review summarizing the recent biomedical applications of functionalized carbon nanofibers
( John Wiley and Sons Inc , 2021 , Article)Since the discovery and fabrication of carbon nanofibers (CNFs) over a decade ago, scientists foster to discover novel myriad potential applications for this material in both biomedicine and industry. The unique economic ... -
Capacitance of MnO2 Micro-Flowers Decorated CNFs in Alkaline Electrolyte and Its Bi-Functional Electrocatalytic Activity toward Hydrazine Oxidation
( ESG , 2017 , Article)Well-dispersed MnO2 micro-flowers were grown directly on carbon nanofibers via a simple hydrothermal technique without any template. Structure and morphology were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field-emission ... -
Engineering of nickel based catalyst for direct urea fuel cell-energy from municipal liquid waste (Mlw)
( Nova Science Publishers, Inc. , 2019 , Book chapter)Alternatives to conventional fuels are required to meet the global energy demand, urea is a relatively non-toxic crystalline substance that is perhaps best known for its presence in municipal liquid waste (MLW) and ... -
Formulation of flowable anolyte for redox flow batteries: Rheo-electrical study
( Elsevier , 2015 , Article)In an attempt to optimize a suspension electrode for redox flow batteries, this work demonstrates the effect of solid content and additive material on the electrical and rheological behavior of an anolyte made up of lithium ... -
High electrocatalytic performance of nitrogen-doped carbon nanofiber-supported nickel oxide nanocomposite for methanol oxidation in alkaline medium
( Elsevier B.V. , 2017 , Article)Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Nanofiber (N-CNF)–supported NiO composite was prepared by electrospinning a sol-gel mixture of graphene and polyaniline (PANi) with aqueous solutions of Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) followed by a ... -
Mesoporous silica coated carbon nanofibers reduce embryotoxicity via ERK and JNK pathways
( Elsevier Ltd , 2021 , Article)Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) have been implicated in biomedical applications, yet, they are still considered as a potential hazard. Conversely, mesoporous silica is a biocompatible compound that has been used in various ... -
Nickel oxide carbon nanofiber composite for electrochemical oxidation of methanol
( Electrochemical Society Inc. , 2014 , Conference Paper)Electrospun fibers of a mixture of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), polyaniline (PANI) and graphene were stabilized for 2 h at 200 °C and then carbonized at 800 °C for 5 h. Composites were prepared by depositing Ni(OH)2 on the ... -
Suspensions of carbon nanofibers in organic medium: Rheo-electrical properties
( Royal Society of Chemistry , 2015 , Article)The nonaqueous suspensions of carbon nanofibers (CNFs) in 1 M lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonaimide) in propylene carbonate electrolyte reveal unique structural evolution and shear-induced transition due to the high ... -
Thin, flexible supercapacitors made from carbon nanofiber electrodes decorated at room temperature with manganese oxide nanosheets
( Hindawi Publishing Corporation , 2013 , Article)We report the fabrication and electrochemical performance of a flexible thin film supercapacitor with a novel nanostructured composite electrode. The electrode was prepared by in situ coprecipitation of two-dimensional ...
