A simple and economical one-pot method to synthesize high-quality water soluble CdTe QDs is reported. An 83% quantum yield (QY) was reached using TGA as the ligand in aqueous solution without protection of nitrogen gas when using K2TeO3 as a stable Te source and NaBH4 as reducing agent. The size of the CdTe NCs could…
We proposed a new hierarchical reinforcement consisting of graphene oxide (GO) and carbon fibers (CF). It was confirmed that GO was chemically grafted onto CF via poly(amido amine) dendrimers. The GO grafting significantly changes the surface configuration of CF. The new hierarchical reinforcement has the potential to…
Pristine Fe <sub>3</sub> O <sub>4</sub> and Fe <sub>3</sub> O <sub>4</sub> –graphene composites were synthesized by using a green and low cost urea assisted microwave irradiation method and utilized as electrode materials for symmetric supercapacitor applications.
Carbon nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes and graphene-related materials are currently being heavily researched and widely proposed for numerous applications. It is often underestimated that these carbon nanomaterials are of complex nature, consisting of different components and often containing impurities. These…
We report a template-free approach to prepare hollow porous cobalt spheres by combining a facile solvent-thermal route with a chemical reduction process. The synthesized cobalt microspheres with diameter of approximately 2–4 μm have a shell thickness of about 150 nm. The hollow Co microsphere is built from particle-li…
Recently, Zhao et al. [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A., 2011, 108, 2684] reported the phase behavior of monolayers of polymeric Brownian squares platelets. As the density is increased, this system exhibits the formation of two crystal structures not expected for particles with square symmetry, namely, a hexagonal rota…
Covalent organic frameworks constitute a subclass of polymeric materials offering enhanced porosity, functionality and stability. In this work a covalent triazine framework based on bipyridine building blocks is presented, along with a comprehensive elucidation of its local structure, porosity, and capacity for metal…
In this study, a new and facile route has been developed to prepare graphene oxide (GO) reinforced polyamide 6 (PA6) composites and synthesize simultaneously PA6 grafted GO hybrid materials: ε-caprolactam (CL) was firstly fixed onto the GO sheets coupling by 4,4′-methylenebis(phenyl isocyanate), and then PA6 was graft…
The imine-bond formation on chitosan backbones occurs with very low yields in aqueous solutions and is significantly improved in hydrogels or in solid state films. The dynamic exchanges of imino-R groups and colour transfer can occur at the interfaces between various hydrogels and solid state films.
Polyaniline/Cu(0.05)Zn(0.95)O (PANI/CZO) nanocomposites were prepared by in situ inverse microemulsion method. Based on the characterization of the crystal structure, chemical composition, and morphology of the samples, it was confirmed that CZO nanoparticles were incorporated into the polyaniline matrix. Studies of t…
Novel random poly(benzoxazole-benzimidazole-imide) copolymers were synthesized via the poly(amic acid)s from the reaction of 5-amino-2-(4-aminobenzene)benzoxazole (BOA) and 5-amino-2-(4-aminobenzene)benzimidazole (BIA) with 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyl tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA). The corresponding homopolyimides were al…
Quantum dots (QDs) are luminescent nanocrystals with rich surface chemistry and unique optical properties that make them useful as probes or carriers for traceable targeted delivery and therapy applications. QDs can be functionalized to target specific cells or tissues by conjugating them with targeting ligands. Recen…
Electrochromic (EC) devices are capable of reversibly changing optical properties upon charge injection and extraction driven by an externally applied voltage. A nanogenerator (NG) is a device that converts mechanical energy into electricity. This paper demonstrates a self-powered EC device driven by an NG. An average…
Monodisperse Er(3+):NaGdF(4)@Ho(3+):NaGdF(4)@NaGdF(4) active-core/active-shell/inert-shell nanocrystals, which can extend the near-infrared wavelength excitable range for upconversion (UC) emissions, were successfully fabricated for the first time. Importantly, doping of Er(3+) and Ho(3+) into the core and shell respe…
We show that Skeletonema marinoi suppresses chain formation in response to copepod cues. The presence of three different copepod species ( Acartia tonsa , Centropages hamatus , or Temora longicornis ) significantly reduced chain length. Furthermore, chain length was significantly reduced when S. marinoi was exposed to…
Fluorinated polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes–poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoro propylene) (fluoroPOSS–PVDF-HFP) nanocomposite mixtures are prepared by individually mixing two fluorinated POSS materials (FP8 and FPSi8) with PVDF-HFP solution and transparent superhydrophobic coatings on a glass substrate are p…
Silk fibroin has a unique and useful combination of properties, including good biocompatibility and excellent mechanical performance. These features provided early clues to the utility of regenerated silk fibroin as a scaffold/matrix for tissue engineering. The silk fibroin scaffolds used for tissue engineering should…
Highly active surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates of Ag nanoparticle (Ag-NP) modified Fe(3)O(4)@carbon core-shell microspheres were synthesized and characterized. The carbon coated Fe(3)O(4) microspheres were prepared via a one-pot solvothermal method and were served as the magnetic supporting substrat…
Though phase selective organogelators (PSOGs) are thought to be useful for oil spill recovery, all known PSOGs require a water-miscible carrier solvent for their introduction. Providing a simple, cheap, green and practical solution to the problem of oil spills, we report a nontoxic super-PSOG that can be sprayed aeria…
An efficient method for the preparation of benzoxazole and benzimidazole covalently grafted graphene and their application as high performance electrode materials for supercapacitors is reported. The synthesis of such covalently functionalized graphene materials first involves a cyclization reaction of carboxylic grou…
