Identification of Molecular Fluorophore as a Component of Carbon Dots able to Induce Gelation in a Fluorescent Multivalent-Metal-Ion-Free Alginate Hydrogel
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2019 , Article)
We introduce a simple approach to fabricate fluorescent multivalent metal ion-free alginate hydrogels, which can be produced using carbon dots accessible from natural sources (citric acid and L-cysteine). Molecular fluorophore ...
Sunlight-Driven Combustion Synthesis of Defective Metal Oxide Nanostructures with Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
Synthesis of metal oxide nanostructures through combustion routes is a promising technique owing to its simplicity, rapidity, scalability, and cost-effectiveness. Herein, a sunlight-driven combustion approach is developed ...
A graphene-based glycan biosensor for electrochemical label-free detection of a tumor-associated antibody
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
The study describes development of a glycan biosensor for detection of a tumor-associated antibody. The glycan biosensor is built on an electrochemically activated/oxidized graphene screen-printed electrode (GSPE). Oxygen ...
Enhancing the corrosion resistance of reinforcing steel under aggressive operational conditions using behentrimonium chloride
(
Nature Research
, 2019 , Article)
Aggressive operational conditions e.g. saline media and acidic gases, e.g., CO2 can increase the corrosion rate of reinforcing steel. Accordingly, the necessity to protect the steel under the above conditions without ...
Potential challenges and approaches to develop the large area efficient monolithic perovskite solar cells (mPSCs)
(
Springer
, 2019 , Article Review)
The next generation technologies based on perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are targeted to develop a true low cost, low tech, widely deployable, easily manufactured and reliable photovoltaics. After the extremely fast evolution ...
Corrosion behavior of electrodeposited Ni-B coatings modified with SiO2 particles
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2017 , Article)
The need for coatings with improved operation is vital to insure safety and high output of industrial plants. Electrodeposition is a valuable surface modification technology that can be used to develop various kinds of ...
Synthesis and evaluation of copper-supported titanium oxide nanotubes as electrocatalyst for the electrochemical reduction of carbon oxide to organics
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) is considered as the prime reason for the global warming effect and one of the useful ways to transform it into an array of valuable products is through electrochemical reduction of CO 2 (ERC). This ...
Corrosion of general oil-field grade steel in CO2 environment - An update in the light of current understanding
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2017 , Article)
In this review, we discussed the current mechanistic understanding and effects of key parameters on corrosion of carbon and low alloy steel (CLAS) in CO2 environments. In particular, we emphasized on the current understanding ...
Solvent Uptake of Liquid Rubber Toughened Epoxy/Clay Nanocomposites
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Carboxyl-terminated poly (butadiene-co-acrylonitrile) (CTBN) liquid rubber toughened epoxy (epoxy/CTBN blend) and CTBN-toughened epoxy/clay nanocomposites (epoxy/clay/CTBN nanocomposites) were prepared, and solvent (acetone) ...
Preparation of progressive antibacterial LDPE surface via active biomolecule deposition approach
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
The use of polymers in all aspects of daily life is increasing considerably, so there is high demand for polymers with specific properties. Polymers with antibacterial properties are highly needed in the food and medical ...
