Abstract: Nanoscale FeS2 was synthesized via a simple hydrothermal method and was decorated by hydrothermal carbonization (FeS2@C). The structural properties of the synthesized materials detected by X-ray diffraction (XRD), together with the morphologies characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) indicated that the hydrothermal carbonization o...

Electron beam induced deposition of amorphous carbon finds several uses in microlithography, surface micromachining, and the manufacturing of microand nanomechanical devices. This process also occurs unintentionally in vacuum chambers of electron microscopes and interferes with normal image acquisition by reducing resolution and causing charging effects. In this work, we show that the resonance...

The aim of this study is to analyze the use of Ag-doped activated carbon aerogels for bromide and iodide removal from drinking water and to study how the activation of Ag-doped aerogels affects their behavior. It has been observed that the carbonization treatment and activation process of Ag-doped aerogels increased the surface area value ( [Formula: see text] ), whereas the volume of meso-(V(2...

A well-designed type of ultrathin carbon shell coating a silver core was prepared for the first time through an alternate adsorption and carbonization method. The obtained ultrathin carbon shell shows prominent advantages, including sufficient uniformity, better chemical stability than silica or alumina, biocompatibility, being free of pin-holes and low cost.
