Effect of Zn and Ni substitution on structural, morphological and magnetic properties of tin oxide nanoparticles
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Structural, morphological, optical and magnetic properties of Zn and Zn–Ni co-doped tin oxide (SnO2) nanoparticles synthesized by sol-gel method. The influence of doping concentration on phase and particle size of the ...
A versatile in situ etching-growth strategy for synthesis of yolk–shell structured periodic mesoporous organosilica nanocomposites
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
This paper describes a versatile in situ etching-growth strategy for the preparation of periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO) composites with yolk-shell structure, which can generate the void space and construct the outer ...
Soft-shear induced phase-separated nanoparticle string-structures in polymer thin films
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
Application of shear stress has been shown to unidirectionally orient the microstructures of block copolymers and polymer blends. In the present work, we study the phase separation of a novel nanoparticle (NP)-polymer blend ...
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 ...
Propylene oxide assisted sol-gel synthesis of zinc ferrite nanoparticles for solar fuel production
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
This paper reports the synthesis of phase-pure Zn-ferrite nanoparticles with high specific surface area (SSA) via the propylene oxide (PO) assisted sol–gel method. For the synthesis of Zn-ferrite, metal precursors (ZnCl2 ...
Sol-gel derived CeO2-Fe2O3 nanoparticles: Synthesis, characterization and solar thermochemical application
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Synthesis of CeO2-Fe2O3 nanoparticles via propylene oxide (PO) aided sol-gel method for the production of solar fuels via thermochemical H2O/CO2 splitting cycles is reported in this paper. For the synthesis of CeO2-Fe2O3, ...
Storage of energy harvested from a miniature turbine in a novel organic capacitor
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
The potential of harvesting energy generated from a (5-cm) miniature wind turbine and storing the charge in a novel organic capacitor is experimentally investigated. The energy is generated by subjecting the wind turbine ...
Targeted delivery of rifampicin to tuberculosis-infected macrophages: design, in-vitro, and in-vivo performance of rifampicin-loaded poly(ester amide)s nanocarriers
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
We have developed a nano drug delivery system for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB) using rifampicin (RF) encapsulated in poly(ester amide)s nanoparticles (PEA-RF-NPs), which are biocompatible polymers. In this study, ...
