Newly developed biodegradable polymer nanocomposites of cellulose acetate and Al2O3 nanoparticles with enhanced dielectric performance for embedded passive applications
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
In this study, biopolymer nanocomposites of
cellulose acetate (CA) and Al2O3 nanoparticles (Al2O3
NPs) were successfully obtained using solution blending
method. The effect of Al2O3 NPs loading on the
microstructure, ...
Improving the efficiency of dye sensitized solar cells by TiO2-graphene nanocomposite photoanode
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
Nanocomposite photoanodes were prepared by addition of graphene (GR) micro-platelets to TiO2 nanoparticulate paste. TiO2/graphene based DSSCs were fabricated using Z907 photosensitizer. Transmission electron microscope was ...
Electrodeposition of 70-30 Cu-Ni nanocomposite coatings for enhanced mechanical and corrosion properties
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
A copper-nickel alloy (70:30 ratio) was electrochemically deposited and compared to a composite coating incorporating layered silicate platelets to obtain copper-nickel-montmorillonite (MMT). The composite coatings were ...
Poly-carboxylic acids functionalized chitosan nanocarriers for controlled and targeted anti-cancer drug delivery
(
Elsevier Masson SAS
, 2016 , Article)
The present study evaluates the in-vitro cisplatin (CDDP) release from four different poly oxalates cross-linked chitosan (CS) nanocomposites. The poly oxalates were synthesized from the reaction of four different dicarboxylic ...
Enhancing oil removal from water using ferric oxide nanoparticles doped carbon nanotubes adsorbents
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
Oil contaminated water is one of the challenges in water resources management. It is crucial to remove the oil droplets from water in order to meet the discharge regulations set by the environmental authorities. Carbon ...
