Building the Nano composites for getting material with combinational properties and improving properties of currently used material has been taken significant attention. One of the ways of building Nano composites is using a method known as powder metallurgy. Because with this method not only wastes are decreased to minimum but we can also mix the materials with high melting point with the mate...

Carbon nano-tube (CNT) reinforced metal matrix nano-composites have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years due to the outstanding physical and mechanical properties of CNTs. However, utilizing CNT as reinforcement for alloy matrixes has not been studies systematically and is still a challenging issue. In the present study, Cu80Fe20/10CNT nanocomposite was synthesized by mechanical ...

OBJECTIVES This study aimed to compare a number of new nano-composites capable of protecting the jaw from ionizing radiation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four different types of nano-powders [Ti, Zr (IV) oxide, Ag and Co] were mixed in a polymer matrix to create nano-composites with doping values of 8% in weight. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) analysis was performed using a HECUSSAXS system wi...

This study aimed to demonstrate that curcumin (Cur)-containing graphene composites have high anticancer activity. Specifically, graphene-derivatives were used as nanovectors for the delivery of the hydrophobic anticancer drug Cur based on pH dependence. Different Cur-graphene composites were prepared based on polar interactions between Cur and the number of oxygen-containing functional groups o...

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is considered to be a bioactive material that favorably influences the adhesion, growth, and osteogenic differentiation of osteoblasts. To optimize the cell response on the hydroxyapatite composite, it is desirable to assess the optimum concentration and also the optimum particle size. The aim of our study was to prepare composite materials made of polydimethylsiloxane, poly...

The purpose of this paper is to connect two critical aspects of nano-composite materials engineering. The nano-elements considered here derive from the class of high aspect ratio nematic polymers, either rod-like or platelet spheroids. First, the overall electrical properties of polymer nano-composites are well approximated by the effective electrical conductivity tensor in the low volume fract...

Graphene, a two dimensional (2D) planar and hexagonal array of carbon atoms, interacts with biological systems in different ways. Pristine graphene has been found to produce different responses as compared to its nano-composites. Graphene and its derivatives have been tested for their toxic effects on human erythrocytes, skin fibroblasts and different human cell lines including HepG2, A498, Cac...
