Abstract-In-situ chemical polymerization was used to synthesize PPy/ TiO2 nanocomposite. The nanocomposite was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) to ensure the crystallite size, functional groups and morphology of the polymer nanocomposite. The band gap of th...

Through the microwave assisted fast synthesis method, Zinc Magnesium Oxide nanocomposite was prepared. Zinc Magnesium Oxide nanocomposite heated at 500oC was used for further structural, optical and antibacterial studies. The Debye Scherrer equation was used to calculate the average particle size of the nanocomposite. The optical characterization of the oxide nanocomposite was carried out by UV...

In this work, the antimicrobial property of nanocomposite prepared by loading of silver nanoparticle onto activated carbon (AgNP-AC) was studied. The silver nanoparticles were synthesized biologically from the culture Enterobacter aerogenes and loaded onto the activated carbon. The nanoparticle and nanocomposite were characterized by UV-vis, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction st...

Nanotechnology, through nanomedicine, allowed drugs to be manipulated into nanoscale sizes for delivery to the different parts of the body, at the same time, retaining the valuable pharmacological properties of the drugs. However, efficient drug delivery and excellent release potential of these delivery systems may be hindered by possible untoward side effects. In this study, the sub-acute toxi...

The strong structural integrity of polymer nanocomposite is influenced in the moist environment; but the fundamental mechanism is unclear, including the basis for the interactions between the absorbed water molecules and the structure, which prevents us from predicting the durability of its applications across multiple scales. In this research, a molecular dynamics model of the epoxy/single-wal...

Wastewater from many sectors that contains hazardous organic pollutants exacerbates environmental contamination. Consequently, outstanding photocatalytic substances can successfully degrade are needed to provide pollution-free water. From this perspective, zinc oxide/g-C3N4-based composites desirable due their low cost, strong reactivity, and friendliness. So, in the current investigation, sequ...

A solvothermal self-made composite of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and commercially available titanium dioxide (TiO2) demonstrated the removal commercial acid green-25 (AG-25) textile dye in a saline water matrix when activated by ultraviolet (UV) visible light. The g-C3N4-TiO2 was characterized X-ray diffraction (XRD), Nitrogen sorption–desorption recording modeling Brunauer–Emmett–Teller...
