One of the key challenges in the field of nanoparticle (NP) analysis is in producing reliable and reproducible characterisation data for nanomaterials. This study looks at the reproducibility using a relatively new, but rapidly adopted, technique, Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) on a range of particle sizes and m…
We report on the elastocaloric effect in a Cu-Zn-Al shape memory alloy. We show that both the isothermal entropy and adiabatic temperature changes are large and reproducible upon field cycling over a very broad temperature span of ∼130 K. The combination of large entropy and such a broad temperature span results in an…
As attractive analogue of graphene, boron monolayers have been theoretically predicted. However, due to electron deficiency of boron atom, synthesizing boron monolayer is very challenging in experiments. Using first-principles calculations, we explore stability and growth mechanism of various boron sheets on Cu(111) s…
Nanopapers formed by stiff and strong native cellulose nanofibrils are emerging as mechanically robust and sustainable materials to replace high-performance plastics or as flexible, transparent and "green" substrates for organic electronics. The mechanical properties endowed by nanofibrils crucially depend on masterin…
With the dramatic increase in nanotechnologies, it has become increasingly likely that food crops will be exposed to excess engineered nanoparticles (NPs). In this study, cucumber plants were grown to full maturity in soil amended with either CeO2 or ZnO NPs at concentrations of 0, 400, and 800 mg/kg. Chlorophyll and…
The wealth of molecular precursors for organic and inorganic polymers has resulted in an incredible volume of molecular imprinting literature. The vast majority of reports deal with organic polymer systems, and molecular imprinting in silica can still be considered a small niche in the field. In this review, we presen…
Two flame-based synthesis methods are presented for fabricating ZnO-nanostructure-based UV photodetectors: burner flame transport synthesis (B-FTS)and crucible flame transport synthesis (C-FTS). B-FTS allows rapid growth of ZnO nanotetrapods and in situ bridging of them into electrical contacts. The photo detector mad…
Layered molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) is deposited by microwave heating on a reduced graphene oxide (RGO). Three concentrations of MoS 2 are loaded on RGO, and the structure and morphology are characterized. The first layers of MoS 2 are detected as being directly bonded with the oxygen of the RGO by covalent chemical…
Carbon-dot based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with driving current controlled color change are reported. These devices consist of a carbon-dot emissive layer sandwiched between an organic hole transport layer and an organic or inorganic electron transport layer fabricated by a solution-based process. By tuning the dev…
The ability to intercalate guest species into the van der Waals gap of 2D layered materials affords the opportunity to engineer the electronic structures for a variety of applications. Here we demonstrate the continuous tuning of layer vertically aligned MoS2 nanofilms through electrochemical intercalation of Li(+) io…
Chicken claw (shank) is a part of the chicken's body that are less desirable, which consists of skin, bone, muscle, and collagen that need to be given a touch of technology to be processed into products with added value. One component of a chicken claw with the potential to be developed are a chicken leg skin which ha…
Citrate-capped silver nanoparticles (AgNP) are widely used in industry, consumer products, and medical appliances. However, information on the environmental toxicity and human health is not comprehensive. Further, the physicochemical properties of AgNP make it difficult to test toxicity, as nanosized particles, due to…
ABSTRACT A series of novel high molecular weight fluorinated co‐polyimides (Co‐PIs) containing styryl side chain based on 1,3‐bis(2‐trifluoromethyl‐4‐aminophenoxy)‐5‐(2,3,4,5‐tetrafluorophenoxy)benzene (6FTFPB) were successfully synthesized. The weight‐average molecular weights ( M w s) and polydispersities of the co‐…
ABSTRACT The nanostructure of sulfonated polyimide (SPI)/dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) derivative charge‐transfer (CT) complex hybrid films, which are noble alternative polymer electrolyte membranes (PEMs), is determined by a combined visible spectroscopy/quantum mechanical approach. From the visible spectra of SPI/2,6‐d…
The intimately mixed natural protein fiber hybrid composites in three different fiber concentrations (70:30, 50:50 and 30:70) and two different fiber orientations (parallel laid and cross laid) are produced using silk and wool fibers with polypropylene fibers as matrix material. The composites are fabricated using com…
Blood levels, tissue distributions, and excretion of silver (Ag) were measured in male Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 5) up to 24 h after a single oral administration of silver nanoparticles (AgNP) and silver ions (Ag(+)), respectively. The AUC24hr of Ag(+) was 3.81 ± 0.57 μg/d/ml when rats were treated with a single dose o…
Platinum was supported on multiwalled carbon nanotubes by the traditional incipient wetness impregnation and tested in the selective oxidation of glycerol. This catalyst is prone to deactivation possibly by oxygen poisoning. A platinum catalyst prepared by the sol immobilization technique is less susceptible to deacti…
The carbon nanotube (CNT) supported palladium catalysts were synthesized by the impregnation method and applied in the hydrogenation of commercial polystyrene (PS) for the first time. The Pd/CNT catalysts displayed a quite excellent hydrogenation activity compared with those of traditional catalysts, e.g., Pd/AC or Pd…
Thermoplastic biodegradable polymers displaying an elastomeric behavior are greatly valued for the regeneration of soft tissues and for various medical devices. In this work, terpolymers composed of ε-caprolactone (CL), D-lactide (D-LA), and L-lactide (L-LA) were synthesized. These poly(lactide-ε-caprolactone) (PLCLs)…

The adsorption of colloidal silver chloride nanoparticles showed an intense peak at the wavelength of 400 nm after 20 hrs of biomass incubation. The size of the silver nanoparticles ranges from 20 to 60 nm which…
