Highly ordered nanoporous carbon films with tunable pore diameters and their excellent sensing properties
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2015 , Article)
Ordered porous carbon films with tunable pore diameters, immobilized with glucose oxidase (GOD) have been fabricated and employed for the construction of a biosensor for glucose molecules. The as-prepared porous films have ...
Freestanding eggshell membrane-based electrodes for high-performance supercapacitors and oxygen evolution reaction
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2015 , Article)
A type of freestanding, light-weight eggshell membrane-based electrode is demonstrated for supercapacitors and for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysis. As a widely available daily waste, eggshell membranes have unique ...
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 ...
Graphene and graphitic derivative filled polymer composites as potential sensors
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2015 , Article)
Graphite and numerous graphitic-derived micro- and nano-particles have gained importance in current materials science research. These two-dimensional sheets of sp2-hybridized carbon atoms remarkably influence the properties ...
Free-volume correlation with mechanical and dielectric properties of natural rubber/multi walled carbon nanotubes composites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
Abstract The microstructure, mechanical strength, dielectric properties, Doppler broadening measurements and positron life time studies of the composites containing multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and natural rubber ...
Enhanced morphology and mechanical characteristics of clay/styrene butadiene rubber nanocomposites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
Achieving complete exfoliation of clay in their polymer nanocomposite is a matter of interest as it can significantly affect the material properties. Herein, an efficient way of enhancing the interlayer spaces of organically ...
Melt processing and characterisation of polyamide 6/graphene nanoplatelet composites
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2015 , Article)
Graphene, due to its outstanding properties, has become the topic of much research activity in recent years. Much of that work has been on a laboratory scale however, if we are to introduce graphene into real product ...
Processing and characterization of polyethylene-based composites
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2015 , Article)
Thermoplastic matrix polymer composites have gained commercial success in the semistructural and structural applications. Polyethylene (PE) is one of the most versatile and widely used thermoplastics in the world because ...
