Biocompatibility and toxicity of novel iron chelator Starch-Deferoxamine (S-DFO) compared to zinc oxide nanoparticles to zebrafish embryo: An oxidative stress based apoptosis, physicochemical and neurological study profile.
( Elsevier , 2019 , Article)Clinically approved iron chelators are effective in decreasing significant transfusional iron accumulation. Starch-Deferoxamine (S-DFO), a novel high molecular weight iron chelator, was produced to increase binding capacity ... -
Enhanced quality factor of polyvinyl formal (PVF) based nanocomposites filled with zinc oxide and carbon black nanoparticles for wireless sensing applications
( Elsevier Ltd , 2019 , Conference)The present article deals with the preparation of polyvinyl formal based nanocomposites filled with zinc oxide (ZnO) and carbon black nanoparticles using colloidal blending technique. To explore the electrical and structural ... -
"green" ZnO-Interlinked Chitosan Nanoparticles for the Efficient Inhibition of Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria in Inject Seawater
( American Chemical Society , 2018 , Article)Antimicrobial agents and corrosion inhibitors are widely used as biocides in the oil and gas industry to disinfect water and inhibit excessive biofilm formation caused mainly by sulfate reducing bacteria (SRBs). However, ... -
Heterogeneous growth mechanism of ZnO nanostructures and the effects of their morphology on optical and photocatalytic properties
( Royal Society of Chemistry , 2017 , Article)Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoflowers have huge potential for various applications. However, the growth mechanism of ZnO nanoflowers is still under debate despite various growth mechanisms having been proposed. The aim of this study ... -
Lotus-bud like hexagonal ZnO/g-C3N4 composites for the photodegradation of benzene present in aqueous solution
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)This study used a one-pot paralysis approach to combine hexagonal ZnO lotus buds with graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanosheets to create ZnO/g-C3N4 composites. For the purpose of investigating the charge carrier interface ... -
Strategies to Enhance ZnO Photocatalyst's Performance for Water Treatment: A Comprehensive Review
( John Wiley and Sons Inc , 2022 , Article Review)Despite the photocatalytic organic pollutant degradation using ZnO started in 1910?1911, many challenges are still ahead, and several critical issues have to be addressed. Large band gap, and short life-time of photogenerated ... -
The advanced photocatalytic degradation of atrazine by direct Z-scheme Cu doped ZnO/g-C3N4
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)Herein, Cu was incorporated into ZnO lattice to reduce its band gap as well as to extend its visible radiation response. The obtained Cu-ZnO was continuously integrated with g-C3N4 to create Cu-ZnO/g-C3N4 Z-direct scheme ... -
Thermodynamic efficiency analysis of zinc oxide based solar driven thermochemical H2O splitting cycle: Effect of partial pressure of O2, thermal reduction and H2O splitting temperatures
( Elsevier Ltd , 2018 , Article)In this paper, the thermodynamic efficiency analysis of ZnO-based solar-driven thermochemical H2O splitting cycle is performed and compared with the SnO2-based H2O splitting cycle. The HSC Chemistry 7.1 software is used ... -
Thermodynamic efficiency analysis of ZnO/Zn based solar thermochemical CH4 reforming and H2O splitting cycle
( Elsevier , 2020 , Article)The ZnO/Zn based CH4 reforming (MR) and H2O splitting (WS) process was thermody- namically scrutinized in this investigation. Two process arrangements i.e., ZnO/Zn based open (ZS) process and ZnO/Zn based semi-open (ZSH) ...
