Copper chalcogenide nanoparticles (NPs) represent a promising material for solar energy conversion, electrical charge storage, and plasmonic devices. However, it is difficult to achieve high-quality NP dispersions in experimentally convenient and technologically preferred aqueous media. Also problematic is the transit…
To test for consequences of an exposure of brain cells to copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-NPs), we synthesised and characterised dimercaptosuccinate-coated CuO-NPs. These particles had a diameter of around 5 nm as determined by transmission electron microscopy, while their average hydrodynamic diameter in aqueous disp…
In this study, the effects of Fe2O3 (addition, 2, 5, 10, and 50 wt %) on the microstructure, mechanical properties, corrosion behaviors, and in vitro biocompatibility of Fe-Fe2O3 composites fabricated by spark plasma sintering were systematically investigated as a novel-structure biodegradable metallic material. The r…
The efficiency of new water soluble composite namely, poly (vinyl alcohol-o-methoxy aniline) PVAMOA has been studied for corrosion inhibition of mild steel in 1 M hydrochloric acid (HCl). Corrosion inhibition was investigated using weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance studies. The ki…
CoCrMoSi alloys microstructure is affected by processing and their properties have been associated with the high volume fraction of Laves phase. However, not much has been reported on the effect of structure refinement and morphology on the properties of these alloys. This paper evaluates a CoCrMoSi alloy processed by…
In this paper we address some aspects of the kinetics of hydrogen absorption and desorption of Mg2FeH6 nanocomposite powder. The Mg2FeH6 material was prepared from a 2Mg-Fe composition by reactive milling under H2 pressure at room temperature. After mechano-chemical processing, the material was mainly constituted of M…
Poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT)/ acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) terpolymer blends were prepared in a twin screw extruder and the use of methyl methacrylate-glycidyl methacrylate-ethyl acrylate (MGE) terpolymer as compatibilization additive was evaluated. The effect of different screw profiles and mixing cond…
Using circular dichroism-angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (CD-ARPES), we report a study of the effect of angular momentum transfer between polarized photons and topological surface states on the surface of highly bulk insulating topological insulator Bi2Te2Se. The photoelectron dichroism is found to be strong…
Two types of cellulose-based materials, 6-carboxycellulose with 2.1 or 6.6 wt% of –COOH groups, were prepared and tested for potential use in tissue engineering. The materials were functionalized with arginine, i.e. an amino acid with a basic side chain, or with chitosan, in order to balance the relatively acid charac…
In spinelectronics the spin degree of freedom is used to transmit and store information. Ideally this occurs without net charge currents in order to avoid energy dissipation due to Joule heating. To this end the ability to create pure spin currents i.e.without net charge transfer is essential. Spin pumping is the most…
We have characterized phase coherence length, spin-orbit scattering length, and the Hall factor in n-type MoS2 2D crystals via weak localization measurements and Hall-effect measurements. Weak localization measurements reveal a phase coherence length of ~50 nm at T = 400 mK for a few-layer MoS2 film, decreasing as T(-…
ABSTRACT Poly(lactic acid) PLA was plasticized with low molecular weight poly(ethylene glycol) PEG‐200 to improve the ductility of PLA, while maintaining the plasticizer content at maximum 10 wt%. Low molecular weight of PEG enables increased miscibility with PLA and more efficient reduction of glass transition temper…
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have been considered as a novel material because their electronic and optoelectronic properties can be tuned by controlling the size and the functional groups of GQDs. Here we report the synthesis of reduction-controlled GQDs and their application to bulk heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells w…
Given the multiplicity of nanoparticles (NPs), there is a requirement to develop screening strategies to evaluate their toxicity. Within the EU-funded FP7 NanoTEST project, a panel of medically relevant NPs has been used to develop alternative testing strategies of NPs used in medical diagnostics. As conventional toxi…
The temperature distribution throughout arrays of illuminated metal nanoparticles is investigated numerically and experimentally. The two cases of continuous and femtosecond-pulsed illumination are addressed. In the case of continuous illumination, two distinct regimes are evidenced: a temperature confinement regime,…
Results of entropic sampling of several polymer systems are presented: a neutral chain at a flat surface; a polyelectrolyte at a charged flat surface; a system of two neutral chains or of two polyions; and star polymers. Both lattice and continuous models for chains are used. The method enables the energy distribution…
To enhance the fracture toughness of silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics and prevent the generation of cracks and chippings in the SiC ceramics during machining process, carbon nanofibres ( CNF s) were compounded with SiC. The densification and microstructure development of the CNF s/SiC composites pressureless sintered in…
Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and sodium montmorillonite (Na-MMT) were melt-blended with 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (C 12 mimPF 6 ) to prepare nanocomposites containing well-dispersed MMT layers in nanoscale and freely existed excess C 12 mimPF 6 . A synergistic effect of MMT and C 12 mimPF 6…
Diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A (DGEBA) was cured by poly(amide-amidic acid) (PAA) and a commonly used curing agent, 4,4’-diaminodiphenylsulfone (DDS), in different molar ratios. It was found that the flexural strength, tensile strength, tribological properties, and thermal stability strongly depended on the molar rat…
The evaluation of the diameter-dependent onset potential for the oxygenation of a SWCNT (single-walled carbon nanotube) is an important issue because its chemical and physical properties, such as chemical reactivity, electronic conductance, and optical characteristics, would be changed. We investigated the diameter-de…
