Commercial polymer membranes are largely utilized to separate oil/water mixtures; however, membrane fouling, flux decline, and short lifetime often inhibit their high performance. In order to resolve these drawbacks of the ...

Here, we report the electrochemical response of the LTO/KB anolytes vs. lithium as function of the cycling rate in static mode (i.e. no flow) and using a home-made cell. The KB content was fixed at 3 wt% while the LTO ...

Unconventional treatments can provide a modification to convert ash waste into valuable materials that can be used in various applications. This study focuses on bottom ash (BA) collected from a local incineration plant ...

Antibiotics are chemical compounds that are used to kill or prevent bacterial growth. They are used in different fields, such as the medical field, agriculture, and veterinary. Antibiotics end up in wastewater, which causes ...

The energy from fossil fuels has been recognized as a main factor of global warming and environmental pollution. Therefore, there is an urgent need to replace fossil fuels with clean, cost-effective, long-lasting, and ...

In this work, phase pure and highly crystalline O3-type layered oxide material (Na1Ni0.33Mn0.33Fe0.33O2-NNMF) was developed using; (i) a conventional solid-state synthesis route and (ii) a facile microwave-assisted sol-gel ...

Corrosion is a major concern for metallic structures, leading to significant economic losses and safety risks. Self-healing coatings have recently emerged as a promising solution to mitigate corrosion issues. This research ...

Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is one of the successful techniques for the synthesis of two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) with different morphologies, sizes, and crystal qualities, which are beneficial ...

Nanoscale polymer-based coatings have become center of importance in present day's materials research. Because of their unique properties, such as less weight, ductility, and ease of manufacture, polymer-based films are ...

In this work, we report the synthesis of α-Fe2O3, ZnO, and α-Fe2O3/ZnO nanomaterials by a simple sol-gel method for photocatalytic dye degradation and flexible electronic applications. X-ray diffraction results reveal that ...
