A review on electrospun bio-based polymers for water treatment
(
Budapest University of Technology
, 2015 , Article)
Over the past decades, electrospinning of biopolymers down to nanoscale garnered much interest to address most of the millennia issues related to water treatment. The fabrication of these nanostructured membranes added a ...
Synthesis, characterization, and antimicrobial properties of novel double layer nanocomposite electrospun fibers for wound dressing applications
(
Dove Press
, 2017 , Article)
Herein, novel hybrid nanomaterials were developed for wound dressing applications with antimicrobial properties. Electrospinning was used to fabricate a double layer nanocomposite nanofibrous mat consisting of an upper ...
Chitosan/lignosulfonate nanospheres as "green" biocide for controlling the microbiologically influenced corrosion of carbon steel
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
In this work, uniform cross-linked chitosan/lignosulfonate (CS/LS) nanospheres with an average diameter of 150-200 nm have been successfully used as a novel, environmentally friendly biocide for the inhibition of mixed ...
Synthesis and performance evaluation of Na(2-x)LixFeP2O7 (x=0, 0.6) hybrid cathodes
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2020 , Article)
This study reports hybrid cathodes formation by cation substitution in which Li+ substitution has been considered for Na+ in the structure of Na(2-x)LixFeP2O7 (x=0, 0.6) to form Na1.4Li0.6FeP2O7 cathodes. Na(2-x)LixFeP2O7 ...
Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy Based Biosensors: Mechanistic Principles, Analytical Examples and Challenges towards Commercialization for Assays of Protein Cancer Biomarkers
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2019 , Article Review)
Impedimetric affinity biosensors are, without any doubt, among the most sensitive analytical devices available, offering low limits of detection and wide linear response ranges. There are, however, only a few papers detailing ...
Rational synthesis, characterization, and application of environmentally friendly (polymer–carbon dot) hybrid composite film for fast and efficient UV-assisted Cd2+ removal from water
(
Springer
, 2020 , Article)
Background: Carbon dots (CDs) are of particular interest in numerous applications. However, their efficiency for heavy metal removal from wastewater was not yet reported. Herein, we rationally synthesized CDs from petroleum ...
Self-healing behavior of epoxy-based double-layer nanocomposite coatings modified with Zirconia nanoparticles
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
This work reports the self-healing behavior of epoxy-based double-layer nanocomposite coatings designed to mitigate corrosion in various industrial applications. Zirconia (ZrO2) nanoparticles were used as a carrier to load ...
Improving mechanical, thermal and damping properties of niti (Nitinol) reinforced aluminum nanocomposites
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
In the present study, Ni50Ti50 (NiTi) particle reinforced aluminum nanocomposites were fabricated using microwave sintering and subsequently hot extrusion. The effect of NiTi (0, 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 vol %) content on the ...
Modeling and piezoelectric analysis of nano energy harvesters
(
MDPI
, 2020 , Article)
The expedient way for the development of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) based devices are based on two key steps. First, perform the simulation for the optimization of various parameters by using different simulation ...
Removal of Lead Ions from Aqueous Solutions Using Polyaniline Polystyrene Nanocomposites
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Water pollution is an issue of grave importance worldwide, especially in countries that boast of a large number of industries. High concentration of heavy metal ions such as lead, nickel, etc are often found in industrial ...
