Organic Solvent Resistant Nanocomposite Films Cellulose nanofiber (CNF) exhibits outstanding mechanical strength and chemical stability is suitable to be a matrix for the photocatalysts immobilization applied in pollutant removal. Entangled with self-precipitated Ag-doped TiO2 NFs, CNF composite film presents flexible dense hierarchical stacking. Through triggering photocatalytic reaction under...

Abstract Even though hydroxyapatite (HA) is the most common biocompatible material; it has limited antibacterial resistance. HA experiences a tailor-made structure depending on desired applications. In this regard, silver (Ag) of particular interest to inhibit wide spectrum pathogenic bacteria and other microorganisms. Silver doped (Ag-HA) was developed via wet co-precipitation with subsequent ...

A feasible and fast method to fabricate hydrogen peroxide sensor was investigated by graphene-manganase nanocomposite carbone paste electrode. In the present work, in first step, the graphene was synthesized by chemical method and in second step, manganese oxide nanoparticle was doped on graphene. graphene-manganase nanocomposite was characterized by FTIR and SEM. The nanocomposite shows a high...

A ternary ZnO/Ag/CdO nanocomposite was synthesized using thermal decomposition method. The resulting nanocomposite was characterized by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The ZnO/Ag/CdO nanocomposite exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation ...

Chitosan–silver (CS–Ag) nanocomposite materials were synthesized by a simple chemical method. The synthesized CS–Ag nanocomposite contains 20 wt% silver. Silver nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical reduction method as well. The CS–Ag nanocomposite was characterized using Field emission scanning electronic microscope (FESEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectrosc...

Three-dimensional microscale assemblies of fluorine-doped titania nanoparticles were synthesized from silica-based diatom microshells (frustules) via a shape-preserving reactive conversion process (as per the method of Unocic et al.). The nanostructured F-doped titania frustules were found to induce rapid hydrolysis of the organophosphorous esters, methyl paraoxon, and methyl parathion (insecti...
