poly (lactide-co-glycolide)/bioactive glass/hydroxyapatite (pbgha) and poly (lactide-co-glycolide)/ bioactive glass (pbg) nanocomposite coatings with bone. materials and methods: sol-gel derived 58s bioactive glass nanoparticles, 50/50 wt% poly (lactic acid)/poly (glycolic acid) and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles were used to prepare the coatings. the nanocomposite coatings were characterized by ...

in this research, the buckling and bending behaviour of smart nanocomposite plate reinforced by single- walled carbon nanotubes (swcnts) under electro-magneto-mechanical loadings is studied. the extended mixture rule approach is used to determine the elastic properties of nanocomposite plate. equilibrium equations of smart nanocomposite plate are derived using the hamilton’s principle based on ...

PbTe/Pb-based nanocomposite was assembled by combining the regular PbTe/Pb nanostructure and the ZnxMn1-xS nanoparticles; the photoelectric property of the nanocomposite was measured in situ. The results showed that the through current of the nanocomposite had an obvious increase compared to that of the individual PbTe/Pb nanomaterial under the same irradiation conditions. The improvement of ph...

A carbon-encapsulated Fe3O4 nanocomposite was prepared by a simple one-step pyrolysis of iron pentacarbonyl without using any templates, solvents or surfactants. The structure and morphology of the nanocomposite was investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis and Raman spectroscopy. Fe3O4 nanoparticles are di...

A facile method to synthesize a TiO2/PEDOT:PSS hybrid nanocomposite material in aqueous solution through direct current (DC) plasma processing at atmospheric pressure and room temperature has been demonstrated. The dispersion of the TiO2 nanoparticles is enhanced and TiO2/polymer hybrid nanoparticles with a distinct core shell structure have been obtained. Increased electrical conductivity was ...

Spherical iron oxide nanocomposite particles composed of magnetite and wustite have been successfully synthesized using a novel method of pulsed laser irradiation in ethyl acetate. Both the size and the composition of nanocomposite particles are controlled by laser irradiation condition. Through tuning the laser fluence, the Fe3O4/FeO phase ratio can be precisely controlled, and the magnetic pr...

A fine layered nanocomposite with a total thickness of about 200 nm was formed on the surface of an Al63Cu25Fe12 quasicrystal (QC). The nanocomposite was found to exhibit high catalytic performance for steam reforming of methanol. The nanocomposite was formed by a self-assembly process, by leaching the Al-Cu-Fe QC using a 5 wt% Na2CO3 aqueous solution followed by calcination in air at 873 K. Th...

The synthesis characterization and conductivities of polyaniline/expanded vermiculite intercalated nanocomposite are presented in this paper. The conductive emeraldine salt form of polyaniline is inserted into the interlayer of expanded vermiculite to produce the nanocomposite with high conductivity. The structures and properties are characterized by transmission electron microscopy x-ray diffr...

Peroxidase has been immobilized onto the PVA-PANI nanocomposite film deposited onto gold plate via physical adsorption for peroxide detection. PVA-PANI nanocomposite was characterized by scanning electron micrograph (SEM) before and after immobilization. The SEM picture clearly shows the immobilization of peroxidase onto the PVA-PANI. The cyclic voltametric study is also carried out for the as ...
