Effect of BaTiO3 on the sensing properties of PVDF composite-based capacitive humidity sensors
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
Capacitive humidity sensors consisting of materials such as polymers, ceramics, and piezoelectrics are widely used to monitor relative humidity levels. The effect of barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanoparticles on the humidity ...
Streamlined Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles with Tunable Curvature from Interfacial Dynamic-Migration Strategy for Nanomotors
(
American Chemical Society
, 2021 , Article)
Streamlined architectures with a low fluid-resistance coefficient have been receiving great attention in various fields. However, it is still a great challenge to synthesize streamlined architecture with tunable surface ...
Electrospun nanofibers of PVDF-HFP composites containing magnetic nickel ferrite for energy harvesting application
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
Nickel ferrite nanoparticles (NiFe2O4) synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method, are added to poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoroproplyene) (PVDF-HFP) in specific concentrations (1, 2, and 3 wt%) and the composite ...
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 ...
Nanotoxicology of dendrimers in the mammalian heart: Ex vivo and in vivo administration of g6 pamam nanoparticles impairs recovery of cardiac function following ischemia-reperfusion injury
(
Dove Medical Press Ltd.
, 2020 , Article)
Aim: The effects of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers on the mammalian heart are not completely understood. In this study, we have investigated the effects of a sixth-generation cationic dendrimer (G6 PAMAM) on cardiac ...
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 ...
Properties enhancement of Ni-P electrodeposited coatings by the incorporation of nanoscale Y 2 O 3 particles
(
Elsevier B.V.
