Covalent organic frameworks COF-1 and COF-5 crystals with excellent textural properties were obtained for the first time in a 0.5 L synthesis vessel within 1–2 h by a sonochemical route.
A photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell for overall water splitting made of a Cu2O nanowire photocathode modified with a thin film of NiOx coupled to a WO3 nanosheet photoanode is presented. The photocathode was prepared by thermal annealing of Cu(OH)2 nanowires on a Cu foil under N2, followed by the deposition of a 10 nm N…
Phthalocyanines (Pc) produced for 75 years as blue and green pigments are the most important organic colorants. Color fastness, homogeneity, intensity, stability combined with a simple synthetic access is the prerequisite of this mostly planar aromatic -system for application as colorants. In the recent years the Pc f…
Hexagonal close-packed Ni (h-Ni) nanocrystals and face-centered cubic Ni (c-Ni) nanoflowers with uniform size and high dispersion have been successfully assembled on graphene nanosheets (GN) via a facile one-step solution-phase strategy under different reaction conditions, where the reduction process of graphite oxide…
The strong efforts devoted to the exploration of BNH compounds for hydrogen storage have led to impressive advances in the field of boron chemistry. This review summarizes progress in this field from three aspects. It starts with the most recent developments in using BNH compounds for hydrogen storage, covering NH3BH3…
NaYF(4):Yb,Er@SiO(2)@Ag core-shell nanocomposites were prepared to investigate metal-enhanced upconversion luminescence. Two sizes (15 and 30 nm) of Ag nanoparticles were used. The emission intensity of the upconversion nanocrystals was found to be strongly modulated by the presence of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) on the ou…
In this study, graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized from graphite flakes using simplified Hummer’s method. Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) image showed that the GO nanosheets had an average area 7000 μm2 with lateral dimension of up to 150 μm. The X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) pattern revealed a (002) dif…
We report a novel and facile synthesis of a high-quality graphene oxide (GO)–polyaniline (PANI) composite by in situ polymerization suitable for supercapacitor application. Unlike the use of the edged carboxyl groups of graphene sheets as linkers, the current work makes the most of the ample oxygenated groups on the b…
In this article, we highlight the potential of nanocelluloses, such as cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and microfibrillated cellulose (MFC), to serve as building blocks for the design of hierarchical functional nanomaterials. Four categories of value-added nanomaterials are envisaged here, namely aerogels, emulsions, tem…
Superhydrophobic and superoleophilic nanofibrous membranes exhibiting robust oil-water separation performance were prepared by a facile combination of electrospun cellulose acetate (CA) nanofibers and a novel in situ polymerized fluorinated polybenzoxazine (F-PBZ) functional layer that incorporated silica nanoparticle…
ZnO/carbon quantum dots (ZnO/CQDs) nanocomposites were prepared by a one-step hydrothermal reaction and used as superior photocatalysts for the degradation of toxic gas (benzene and methanol) under visible light at room temperature. The as-prepared ZnO/CQDs nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction…
Methods to detect, quantify, and characterize engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) in environmental matrices are highlighted as one of the areas of highest priority research needs with respect to understanding the potential environmental risks associated with nanomaterials. More specifically, techniques are needed to deter…
Self-assembled well-ordered whisker-like manganese dioxide (MnO2) arrays on carbon fiber paper (MOWAs) were synthesized via a simple in situ redox replacement reaction between potassium permanganate (KMnO4) and carbon fiber paper (CFP) without any other oxidant or reductant addition. The CFP serves as not only a sacri…
Polymer/graphene (oxide) nanocomposites exhibit enhanced mechanical properties at low volume fractions of graphene-based nanofillers. An understanding of the reinforcement behaviour was developed through the investigation of interfacial interactions between graphene oxide (GO) nanoplatelets and polymer matrix (PLLA, P…
As one of the most effective synthesis tools, layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly technology can provide a strong non-covalent integration and accurate assembly between homo- or hetero-phase compounds or oppositely charged polyelectrolytes, resulting in highly-ordered nanoscale structures or patterns with excellent fun…
A Cu-exchanged SSZ-39 zeolite has been synthesized and tested for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx. This material shows an excellent catalytic activity, and most importantly, an extraordinary hydrothermal stability.
Sustainable development of nanotechnology requires an understanding of the long term ecotoxicological impact of engineered nanomaterials on the environment. Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO₂-NPs) have great potential to accumulate and adversely affect the environment owing to their widespread applications in commercial…
This review will focus on the synthesis, arrangement, structural assembly, for current and future applications, of 1D nanomaterials (tubes, wires, rods) in 2D and 3D ordered arrangements. The ability to synthesize and arrange one dimensional nanomaterials into ordered 2D or 3D micro or macro sized structures is of utm…
Young's law fails on soft solid and liquid substrates where there are substantial deformations near the contact line. On liquid substrates, this is captured by Neumann's classic analysis, which provides a geometrical construction for minimising the interfacial free energy. On soft solids, the total free energy include…
In this work, we proposed a facile and scalable template-free strategy to synthesize one-dimensional (1D) ultralayered mesoporous nickel cobaltite (NiCo2O4) nanowires (NWs), which are constructed from lots of quasi-single-crystalline NiCo2O4 nanosheet building blocks. The unique ultralayered mesoporous nanowire electr…
