Unfortunately Table 1 was not corrected during the e.proof reading. The correct data for membrane composition in is as follow:

Ionic liquid [Bmim][BF 4 ] and metal organic framework ZIF-8 ZIF-94 nanoparticles were incorporated into polymer Pebax® Renew® 30R51 to obtain highly efficient thin-film nanocomposite membranes, ca. 300 nm thick.

10 Influence of phase composition, structural peculiarities and grain size of Fe2O3–SnO2 nanocomposites prepared by sol–gel technology on gas-sensitive properties of the corresponding gas sensors has been studied in the paper. The characteristics of thin film sensors were obtained with regards to NO2 and C2H5OH. Behaviour of thick film sensors was estimated in humid C2H5OH ambient. High sensiti...

A functional anticoagulant and anti-bacterial coating for polyethylene (PE) films is described. The stepwise preparation of this nanocomposite surface coating involves O2 plasma etching of PE film, carbodiimide coupling of cysteamine to the etched PE film, binding of Ag to sulfhydryl groups of cysteamine, and assembly of heparin capped AgNPs on the PE film. The nanocomposite film and its compon...

Water is the material basis for living organisms and one of primary resources to maintain sustainable development earth’s ecological environment. As a water purification method, nanofiltration (NF) separation technology has been widely considered by researchers in recent years. However, most studies on NF literature focus membrane modification, there are only few reviews available. In this pape...

CNT nanocomposites used for thin-film transistors (TFTs) provide one of the first technologically-relevant test beds for 2D heterogeneous percolating systems. The characteristics of these TFTs are predicted by considering the physics of heterogeneous finite-sized networks and interfacial traps at the CNT/gate-oxide interface. Close agreement between our numerical results and different experimen...

The ability to convert photons of different wavelengths directly into mechanical motion is of significant interest in many energy conversion and reconfigurable technologies. Here, using few layer 2H-MoS2 nanosheets, layer by layer process of nanocomposite fabrication, and strain engineering, we demonstrate a reversible and chromatic mechanical response in MoS2-nanocomposites between 405 nm to 8...

We examined CD133 distribution in a human hepatoblastoma cell line (HuH-6 clone 5). We directly observed the cultured cells on a pressure-resistant thin film (silicon nitride thin film) in a buffer solution by using the newly developed atmospheric scanning electron microscope (ASEM), which features an open sample dish with a silicon nitride thin film window at its base, through which the scanni...
