Methanol Electro-Oxidation in Alkaline Medium by Ni Based Binary and Ternary Catalysts: Effect of Iron (Fe) on the Catalyst Performance
(
Pleiades Publishing
, 2019 , Article)
Pt free methanol electro oxidation catalysts with stable response are of interest to reduce the overall cost of the direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC). Here, nickel based bi and tri metallic catalysts have been prepared on ...
Sulfobetaines Meet Carboxybetaines: Modulation of Thermo- and Ion-Responsivity, Water Structure, Mechanical Properties, and Cell Adhesion
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
A procedure for the preparation of copolymers bearing sulfobetaine and carboxybetaine methacrylic-based monomers by free-radical polymerization is described and discussed. A combination of monomers affects the upper critical ...

Flexible, biodegradable and recyclable solar cells: a review
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2019 , Article)
Solar energy is conceivably the largest source of renewable energy at our disposal, but vital advances are expected to make solar cells economically viable. Biodegradable and flexible solar cells are currently under extensive ...
Graphene-filled PDMS Composite for Tactile Sensing of Surgical Graspers
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
For tactile sensors to become useful technology, the required features should be flexibility, durability, and its sensitivity to physical contact. Conductive elastomer nanocomposites are widely used in fabricating a variety ...
Glycomics of prostate cancer: updates
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Introduction: Prostate cancer (PCa) is a life-threatening disease affecting millions of men. The current best PCa biomarker (level of prostate-specific antigen in serum) lacks specificity for PCa diagnostics and this is ...
