Sono-hybrid advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have recently attracted significant attention of researchers for degradation of bio-recalcitrant pollutants. Most widely studied sono-hybrid processes are: sonocatalysis, sono-Fenton and sono-photocatalysis. However, exact synergy between these AOPs and the underlying ph…
The Raman enhancing ability of noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) is an important factor for surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate screening, which is generally evaluated by simply mixing as-prepared NPs with Raman reporters for Raman signal measurements. This method usually leads to incredible results becau…
Post-translational modification of histones is linked to a variety of biological processes and disease states. This paper focuses on phosphorylation of histone H3 at serine 10 (p-H3S10), induced by silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and discusses the usefulness of p-H3S10 as a marker to evaluate the toxicity of AgNPs. Cultu…
An electroresponsive drug release system based on polypyrrole (Ppy) nanowires was developed to induce the local delivery of anticancer drug, doxorubicin (DOX), according to the applied electric field. DOX-conjugated Ppy nanowire (NW) (DOX/Ppy NW) array was initially prepared by electrochemical deposition of a mixture…
The combination of hydrodynamic focusing with embedded capillaries in a microfluidic device is shown to enable both surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and electrochemical characterization of analytes at nanomolar concentrations in flow. The approach utilizes a versatile polystyrene device that contains an encaps…
Highly ordered metal oxide nanorods (MnO 2, SnO 2, NiO) inside mesoporous silica supported carbon nanomembranes have been applied for electroactive materials to fabricate symmetrical supercapacitors. Maximum specific capacitance of the obtained cells reaches up to 964 F g –1 in aqueous electrolyte with energy density…
Abstract Fluorescent metal nanoclusters (FMNCs), one of the promising functional nanomaterials, have aroused great interest in diverse areas due to their unique characteristics, such as ultrasmall size, high fluorescence, excellent photophysical and chemical stability, good biocompatibility, and tuneable emissions. Ma…
This study focuses on the green synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles (silver (Ag) and platinum (Pt)) and how the size and shape of the nanoparticles produced can be controlled through changes in the initial pH value of the precursor solution. The nanoparticles were characterised by ultra-violet-visible spectroscopy,…
Mg(B3H8)2·2THF (THF = tetrahydrofuran) was prepared by the addition of BH3·THF to Mg/Hg amalgam. Heating a 1:2 molar mixture of Mg(B3H8)2·2THF and MgH2 to 200 °C under 5 MPa H2 for 2 h leads to nearly quantitative conversion to Mg(BH4)2. The differential scanning calorimetry profile of the reaction measured under 5 MP…
Two-terminal thin film VO2 devices show an abrupt decrease of resistance when the current or voltage applied exceeds a threshold value. This phenomenon is often described as a field-induced metal-insulator transition. We fabricate nano-scale devices with different electrode separations down to 100 nm and study how the…
In this work, N, O-carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) samples from virgin chitosan (CS) were synthesised and CMCS/polyethylene oxide (PEO) (50/50) blend nanofibrous samples were successfully electrospun from their aqueous solution. The electrospinning conditions to achieve smooth and fine diameter nanofibrous mats were opt…
In this study, we evaluate coaxial electrospun nanofibers with gelatin in the shell and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) in the core as a potential vascular material by determining fiber surface roughness, as well as human platelet deposition and activation under varying conditions. PVA scaffolds had the highest surface roug…
A series of halide-free ammine manganese borohydrides, Mn(BH4 )2 ⋅nNH3 , n=1, 2, 3, and 6, a new bimetallic compound Li2 Mn(BH4 )4 ⋅6NH3 , and the first ammine metal borohydride solid solution Mg1-x Mnx (BH4 )2 ⋅6NH3 are presented. Four new crystal structures have been determined by synchrotron radiation powder X-ray…
Finite element micromagnetic simulations are used to compute the temperature-dependent hysteresis properties of Nd2Fe14B permanent magnets in order to assess the influence of a hard (Dy,Nd)2Fe14B shell. The simulations show that the 4 nm thick shell cancels out the reduction in coercivity from an outer defect layer, w…
This review surveys advances in the development of various material functionalities based on thermoplastic cellulose and related structural polysaccharide derivatives. First, the dependence of thermal (phase) transition behavior on the molecular composition of simple derivatives is rationalized. Next, approaches enabl…
X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) promise to enable the collection of interpretable diffraction data from samples that are refractory to data collection at synchrotron sources. At present, however, more efficient sample-delivery methods that minimize the consumption of microcrystalline material are needed to allow th…
The lattice thermal conductivities (\ensuremath{\kappa}) of binary compound materials are examined as a function of hydrostatic pressure $P$ using a first-principles approach. Compounds with relatively small mass ratios, such as MgO, show an increase in \ensuremath{\kappa} with $P$, consistent with measurements. Conve…
Nanocomposite coatings of silver particles embedded in a plasma polymer matrix possess interesting properties depending on their microstructure. The film microstructure is affected among others also by the RF power supplied during the deposition, as shown by transmission electron microscopy. The optical properties are…
Polypropylene (PP) is a general-purpose plastic, but some applications are constrained by its high flammability. Thus, flame retardant PP is urgently demanded. In this article, intumescent flame retardant PP (IFRPP) composites with enhanced fire safety were prepared using 1-oxo-4-hydroxymethyl-2,6,7-trioxa-1-phosphabi…
The inner-surface functionalization of hollow silica spheres has rarely been reported and is still a challenging topic. Herein, we report a deacetalization-Henry cascade reaction catalyzed by dual-functionalized mesoporous silica hollow nanospheres with basic amine groups (NH2 ) on the internal shell and carboxylic a…
