Nanostructured ZnO gas sensors obtained by green method and combustion technique
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
The present study reports on the synthesis of nano ZnO using two different processes i.e., biological (green synthesis) and chemical synthesis (solution combustion technique). The prepared materials were characterized by ...
Striking multiple synergies in novel three-phase fluoropolymer nanocomposites by combining titanium dioxide and graphene oxide as hybrid fillers
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
In this study, novel three-phase polymer nanocomposites comprising of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles and graphene oxide (GO) were prepared using colloidal blending. The PVDF/TiO2/GO ...
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, ...
PdZn nanoparticle electrocatalysts synthesized by solution combustion for methanol oxidation reaction in an alkaline medium
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2017 , Article)
Herein, we report the synthesis of PdZn nanoparticle (NP) electrocatalysts for the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR). The PdZn NPs were synthesized by solution combustion synthesis in the presence of Pd(NO3)2·xH2O, ...
Transition metal nanoparticles doped carbon paper as a cost-effective anode in a microbial fuel cell powered by pure and mixed biocatalyst cultures
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
The poor wettability and high cost of the carbonaceous electrodes materials prohibited the practical applications of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) on large scale. Here, a novel nanoparticles of metal sheathed with metal oxide ...
Poly (acrylonitrile-co-methyl methacrylate) nanoparticles: I. Preparation and characterization
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
This work concerns the preparation and characterization of poly (acrylonitrile-co-methyl methacrylate) Copolymer, P(AN-co-MMA), nano-particles using precipitation polymerization technique. Potassium per-sulfate redox ...
Nanoparticles in tissue engineering: Applications, challenges and prospects
(
Dove Medical Press Ltd.
, 2018 , Article)
Tissue engineering (TE) is an interdisciplinary field integrating engineering, material science and medical biology that aims to develop biological substitutes to repair, replace, retain, or enhance tissue and organ-level ...
Selective H2S sensor based on CuO nanoparticles embedded in organic membranes
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
We report on H2S gas sensors based on CuO nanoparticles that are embedded within polymer membranes of poly-vinyl-alcohol (PVA) and glycerol ionic liquid (IL). The nanoparticles were fabricated by the colloid microwave ...
The effect of aluminum oxide on red blood cell integrity and hemoglobin structure at nanoscale
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Herein, we explored the interaction of Al2O3 NPs with RBCs and Hb to determine the effect of Al2O3 NPs on hemolytic activity and Hb denaturation. The percentage of hemolysis of extracts and direct contact assays triggered ...
Characterization of H2S gas sensor based on CuFe2O4nanoparticles
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Copper ferrite (CuFe2O4) nanoparticles were prepared by the sol-gel auto-combustion method and used to construct a conductometric gas sensor in this work. The as-prepared CuFe2O4 nanoparticles were annealed at 500 °C and ...
