one of the most important applications of carbon nanotubes (cnts) is as reinforcement of metal matrix composites, because of their excellent mechanical properties. in this study, al-tio2-multi walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) nanocomposite is fabricated using isostatic pressing followed by hot extrusion. mechanical alloying is used to mix powders of aluminium, tio2 and mwcnts. tio2 with the amo...

This article contains the dataset referring to the article "Study of the effect of the dispersion of functionalized nanoparticles TiO2 with photocatalytic activity in LDPE" (Jahell et al., 2016) [1]. It includes the FT-IR data of the functionalized nanoparticles of TiO2 with Hexadecyltrimethoxysilane in different degrees of functionalization, thermogravimetric analysis, distribution and particl...

Herein, we use a facile procedure to graft a thin graphitic C3N4 (g-C3N4) layer on aligned TiO2 nanotube arrays (TiNT) by a one-step chemical vapor deposition (CVD) approach. This provides a platform to enhance the visible-light response of TiO2 nanotubes for antimicrobial applications. The formed g-C3N4/TiNT binary nanocomposite exhibits excellent bactericidal efficiency against Escherichia co...

Semiconductor photocatalysis has been intensively studied in recent decades for a wide variety of application such as hydrogen production from water splitting and water and air treatment. The majority of photocatalysts are, however, wide band-gap semiconductors which are active only under UV irradiation. In order to effectively utilize visible solar radiation, this thesis investigates various t...

the Sol–gel nanocomposite coatings have been investigated for copper metal as a potential replacement for the hazardous and banned hexavalent chromate conversion coatings. TiO2–CdO nanocomposite thin films were deposited on copper using the sol–gel method. The sol-gel coatings were prepared using a sol obtained by the hydrolysis and condensation of tetra-o-butyl titanate. They were doped with c...

A series of CuO-Cu2O/TiO2 nanocomposite samples were prepared by the sol-gel method. Before applying the sol-gel method, the Cu(OH)2 nanostructure on Cu powders were formed by in-situ solution treatment. The samples were characterized through some techniques and the photocatalytic performance of CuO-Cu2O/TiO2 nanocomposites for gas-phase 2-propanol photo-oxidation under UV and sunlight type ill...

nanocomposites of multi-walled carbon nanotubes and titanium dioxide (mwcnt/tio2) were synthesized by the sol-gel method. regarding hydrophobicity of carbon nanotubes (cnts), benzyl alcohol was used as the linking agent between cnt powder and tio2 gel which was prepared from the precursor of titanium tetraisopropoxide. the prepared samples were treated under thermal treatments. a part of the sa...

Porous TiO2/C nanocomposite shells with high capacity, excellent cycle stability, and rate performance have been prepared. The synthesis involves coating colloidal TiO2 nanoshells with a resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) layer with controllable thickness through a sol-gel-like process, and calcining the composites at 700 °C in an inert atmosphere to induce crystallization from amorphous TiO2 to anat...

Synthesis and characterization of Cd-TiO2/PEG/FA nanocomposite as a biomaterial is the main aim of this research. Cd-doped TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by solvothermal assisted sol-gel method. Then, polyethylene glycol (PEG) was added to the as-synthesized NPs in order to modify their surface and to prevent agglomeration. In the next step, folic acid (FA) was conjugated to Cd-TiO2/...

in this research we have developed a treatment method for textile wastewater by tio2/sio2-based magnetic nanocomposite. textile wastewater includes a large variety of dyes and chemicals and needs treatments. this manuscript presents a facile method for removing dyes from the textile wastewater by using tio2/sio2-based nanocomposite (fe3o4@sio2/tio2) under uv irradiation. this magnetic nanocompo...
