Review of recent research on biomedical applications of electrospun polymer nanofibers for improved wound healing
(
Future Medicine
, 2016 , Article)
Wound dressings play an important role in a patient’s recovery from health problems,
as unattended wounds could lead to serious complications such as infections or,
ultimately, even death. Therefore, wound dressings since ...
Copper oxide nanoparticles in an epoxy network: Microstructure, chain confinement and mechanical behaviour
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
Copper oxide nanoparticles (nCOPs) having octahedral morphology, synthesized through hydrazine reduction reaction were employed to formulate an epoxy based novel nanocomposite. The synthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles ...
Integration of the inexpensive CuNWs based transparent counter electrode with dye sensitized photo sensors
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
We demonstrate, a newly developed, inexpensive transparent conducting electrode (TCE) based on copper nanowires (CuNWs) combined with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate ...
Effect of barrier plasma pre-treatment on polyester films and their adhesive properties on oak wood
(
North Carolina State University
, 2016 , Article)
A barrier plasma, created at atmospheric pressure, was used to improve the surface and adhesive properties of polyester (PES) film with respect to wood using polyurethane adhesives. The modification of PES film surfaces ...
Graphene oxide-based electrochemical label-free detection of glycoproteins down to aM level using a lectin biosensor
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
A label-free ultrasensitive impedimetric biosensor with lectin immobilised on graphene oxide (GO) for the detection of glycoproteins from 1 aM is shown here. This is the first time a functional lectin biosensor with lectin ...
Electroactive and Optically Adaptive Bionanocomposite for Reconfigurable Microlens
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
This paper introduces an electroactive bionanocomposite based on poly(diethylene glycol adipate) (PDEGA) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). The bionanocomposites were made using CNCs extracted from cotton and by optimizing ...
Simple, Reversible, and Fast Modulation in Superwettability, Gradient, and Adsorption by Counterion Exchange on Self-Assembled Monolayer
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
A simple fabrication method for preparation of surfaces able to switch from superhydrophobic to superhydrophilic state in a reversible and fast way is described. A self-assembled monolayer (SAM) consisting of quaternary ...
Synthesis of mesoporous carbons with controlled morphology and pore diameters from SBA-15 prepared through the microwave-assisted process and their CO2 adsorption capacity
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
Mesoporous carbon materials (CMK-3-T-MW) with high surface area, different pore diameters and rod shaped morphology were synthesized via nanocasting technique using the SBA-15 templates prepared by ultra-fast microwave-assisted ...
Structural and electrochemical properties of electrodeposited Ni-P nanocomposite coatings containing mixed ceramic oxide particles
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2016 , Article)
Mixed oxide ceramic particles were incorporated into Ni-P matrix to synthesize Ni-P-TiO2-CeO2 nanocomposite coatings. In the present study, the effect of concentration of mixed oxide ceramic particles (TiO2 and CeO2) on ...
Influence of the Ce :YAG amount on structure and optical properties of Ce :YAG-PMMA composites for white LED
(
De Gruyter
, 2016 , Article)
Ce:YAG-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composites were prepared by using a melt compounding method, adding several amounts of Ce:YAG in the range 0.1–5wt.%. The optical properties of the obtained composites and of the ...
