Two azobenzene α-cyclodextrin based nanovalves are designed, synthesized and assembled on mesoporous silica nanoparticles. Under aqueous conditions, the cyclodextrin cap is tightly bound to the azobenzene moiety and capable of holding back loaded cargo molecules. Upon irradiation with a near-UV light laser, trans to c…

A simple, low cost, and green method was developed for the synthesis of water-soluble and well-dispersed fluorescent carbon nanodots (CDs) via a one-step hydrothermal treatment of potatoes. The as-prepared CDs exhibit a strong blue fluorescence, with a quantum yield of up to 15%. We further explored the use of these C…

New classes of nanoporous organic polymers based on 1,3,5-triazine units (NOP-1–6) were synthesized via a straightforward, methane-sulfonic acid-catalysed, cost-effective Friedel–Crafts reaction of 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine and tetrahedral building blocks. Among them, NOP-3 with a Brunauer–Emmet–Teller (BET) spec…

In this paper, we demonstrate a series of metal-free and inexpensive TiO2/carbon dot (CD) nanocomposites via facile hydrothermal synthesis from bidentate complexes of a green carbon source, vitamin C (VC). Other than the importance of deriving CDs from alternate carbon materials instead of graphitic precursors, the in…

Native silk features strong, extensible and tough properties which originate from its hierarchical nanofibril structure. In the present study, native silk nanofibrils were obtained by dissolving degummed silk in salt–formic acid (FA), such as CaCl2–FA. The CaCl2–FA dissolved silk by breaking hydrogen bonds in the crys…

The CVD process for the spinning of carbon nanotube (CNT) fibres combines the nucleation, growth and aggregation of CNTs in the form of an aerogel with fibre spinning into a single process step. The optimisation of the process requires agility in multi-dimensional parameter space, so one tends to find parameter 'islan…
