Abstract β-NaYF4:Yb,Er upconversion nanocrystals are synthesized by a hot-injection method employing purified α-NaYF4:Yb,Er particles with a size of approximately 2–3 nm as single-source precursor. The method allows to prepare either spherical nanoparticles with different sizes or nanorods by simply controlling the ad…

Abstract We investigated an appropriate preparation condition for anode‐supported SOFCs: (La,Sr)MnO3/cathode functional layer/YSZ/Ni‐YSZ were fabricated with and without a Ni‐YSZ anode functional layer (AFL) via the tape‐casting method, where the AFL thicknesses were controlled from approximately 20 to 80 μm. The warp…

In this work, nanocomposites with simultaneous dispersion of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and montmorillonite clays in an epoxy matrix were prepared by in situ polymerization. A high energy sonication was employed as the dispersion method, without the aid of solvents in the process. The simultaneous dispersion…

In this work, excellent improvement in mechanical properties was observed by incorporating graphene nanofillers in polyvinyl chloride via solution blending. About 63% increase in modulus and 19% increase in ultimate tensile strength were measured at 1.5 wt% nanofiller content while almost no drop in elongation at brea…

Conventional material models cannot describe material behaviors precisely in micro/mesoscale due to the size/scale effects. In micro/mesoscale forming process, the reaction force, localized stress concentration, and formability are not only dependent on the strain distribution and strain path but also on the strain gr…

In this article, using energy method, the effect of surface stress on the free vibration and bending analysis of single-layer graphene sheet embedded in an elastic medium based on nonlocal elasticity theory is studied. Surface stress plays a more important role due to the high surface-to-volume ratio in nanoscale mate…

One of the major obstacles to successful paclitaxel (PTX) chemotherapy is toxic side effects, which are often due to the conventional surfactants used, such as Cremophor EL. PTX is characterized by its hydrophobicity and insolubility, which limit its application in ovarian cancer therapy. The aim of this study was to…
