Reduction in piezoelectric voltage generation for the cerium doped nickel ferrite nanoparticles filled PVDF-HFP nanocomposites
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
This paper describes the synthesis of grape cluster shaped nickel ferrite (NiFe 2 O 4 ) and cerium doped nickel ferrite (Ce-NiFe 2 O 4 ) nanoparticles by chemical co-precipitation and their addition to poly(vinylidene ...
Date palm fibre filled recycled ternary polymer blend composites with enhanced flame retardancy
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Flammability of recycled polypropylene (PP)/low density polyethylene (LDPE)/high density polyethylene (HDPE) ternary blends containing date palm fibres is investigated in this study. Melt blending is used for the composite ...
Intercalative ion-exchange route to amino acid layered double hydroxide nanohybrids and their sorption properties
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2015 , Article)
A soft chemical route to amino acid layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanohybrids was demonstrated on the basis of an intercalative ion-exchange reaction. Two different amino acids, phenylalanine and glutamic acid, were ...
TiO2-pillared clays with well-ordered porous structure and excellent photocatalytic activity
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2015 , Article)
TiO2-pillared clays with well-ordered porous structures are successfully prepared via incorporating TiO2 nanosol particles into the clays, where empty octahedral sites are partially modified with divalent metal ions such ...
Interfacial engineering for high performance organic photovoltaics
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article Review)
In the past two decades, bulk heterojunction (BHJ) organic photovoltaics (OPVs) have gained tremendous attention due to its intrinsic merits of cheap, flexible, clean and high throughput manufacturing processibility and ...
One-pot microwave-assisted green synthesis of amine-functionalized graphene quantum dots for high visible light photocatalytic application
(
Elsevier Masson SAS
, 2019 , Article)
Nowadays, graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have gained a huge interest in the field of visible-range photocatalysts because of their tunable band gap and stable photochemical properties. In this work, amine-functionalized GQDs ...
Enhancement of gemcitabine against pancreatic cancer by loading in mesoporous silica vesicles
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
Gemcitabine (Gem) is currently the first-line chemotherapeutic drug in management of pancreatic cancer, however the therapeutic efficacy of Gem is limited due to its short half-life and poor cell membrane permeability. ...
Magnetic mesoporous nanospheres anchored with LyP-1 as an efficient pancreatic cancer probe
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Immobilization of a ligand that selectively interacts with cancer cells to nanomaterials can enhance their diagnostic and therapeutic efficiency. In this study, we firstly demonstrate the high expression of receptor for ...
Surfactant-templating strategy for ultrathin mesoporous TiO2 coating on flexible graphitized carbon supports for high-performance lithium-ion battery
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
The electrochemical performance of nanocomposites could greatly be improved by rationally designing flexible core-shell heterostructures. Typically, the uniform coating of a thin mesoporous crystalline transition metal ...
Vertical orientation of solvent cast nanofilled PS-b-PEO block copolymer thin films at high nanoparticle loading
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
We demonstrate selective dispersion of photosensitive electron acceptor phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) in cylinder forming polystyrene-b-poly (ethylene oxide) (PS-b-PEO) block copolymer (BCP). Neat PS-b-PEO ...
