graphene oxide was prepared using modified hummers method. stable ethylene-glycol nanofluids containing graphene oxide nanosheets were provided. nd: yag pulsed laser was applied to prepare reduced nanofluids. experimental results revealed that thermal conductivity of the nanofluids is increased with increasing the concentration of graphene oxide (go) in ethylene glycol. the enhancement ratio of...

a new nano-sized cobalt(ii) coordination polymer, (col1).0.5dmf.1.5ch3oh(1); [h2l1 = 5-(4-carboxy phenyl azo) salicyilic acid] has been synthesized by a sonochemical method. the thermal stability of compound 1 was studied by thermo- gravimetric and differential thermal analyses. nano-structure of this coordination polymer was characterized by elemental analyses, ir spectroscopy,  powder x-ray d...

Protein thermal stability is important for therapeutic proteins, both influencing the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties and for stability during production and shelf-life of the final product. In this paper we show the redesign of a therapeutically interesting trimeric all-beta-sheet protein, the cytokine TRAIL (tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand), yielding var...

In this study, the lipophilic Cu nanoparticles were synthesized by surface modification method to improve their dispersion stability in hydrophobic organic media. The oil-based nanofluids were prepared with the lipophilic Cu nanoparticles. The transport properties, viscosity, and thermal conductivity of the nanofluids have been measured. The viscosities and thermal conductivities of the nanoflu...
