Compact nanostructures with highly integrated functionalities are of considerable current interest to drug delivery, multimodality imaging, and electronic devices. A key challenge, however, is how to combine individual components together without interfering or sacrificing their original electronic and optical properties. Here, we demonstrate a new class of nanocomposites with spatially separat...

Because of their magnetic properties, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have numerous diverse biomedical applications. In addition, because of their ability to penetrate bacteria and biofilms, nanoantimicrobial agents have become increasingly popular for the control of infectious diseases. Here, MNPs were prepared through an iron salt coprecipitation method in an alkaline medium, followed by a chit...

Abstract The formulation of polymer with embedded magnetic nanoparticles results in promising nanocomposites for smart and analytical applications. Nanocomposites containing polyacrylonitrile (PAN) different mass contents strontium hexaferrite (SFO) were prepared using the casting method. nanocomposite samples characterized by techniques such as field-emission scanning electron microscopy, Four...

Abstract Magnetic-clay (MtMag) and magnetic-organoclay (O100MtMag) nanocomposites were synthesized, characterized evaluated for arsenic adsorption. Batch adsorption experiments performed varying pH conditions initial As(V) concentration, while successive cycles made in order to evaluate the materials reuse. The highest removal efficiency (9 ± 1 mg g?1 7.8 ± 0.8 mg g?1 MtMag O100MtMag, respectiv...
