Poly (amide-6-b-ethylene oxide)/Zinc Oxide (PEBA/ZnO) mixed matrix membranes were fabricated using ethanol/water as solvent by solvent casting method. The concentration of ZnO in membrane was set to 0.1 wt.% and the synthesized membranes were characterized by AFM and FTIR. Effects of ZnO nanoparticle on CO2, CH4 and N2 permeabilities, and CO2/N2<...

Abstract:Electroless Nickel-phosphorus (EN) coatings provide high performance in various industrial fields due to their unique properties such as excellent corrosion and wear resistance. This paper aims to study the effect of ZnO nano-particles addition on corrosion behavior of EN coatings. Various amounts of ZnO nano-particles with average diameter of 50 nm were added to hypophosphite reduced ...

Ni-P Electroless coatings provide appropriate resistance to wear and corrosion. Co-deposition of particles between layers can improve their properties, especially general corrosion and erosion-corrosion behavior by means of nano diamond as reinforcing particles. In this study Ni-P/nano diamond composite deposition were deposited on steel substrate. Structure of the coatings and corrosion r...

Antibacterial nanocomposite polyester (PET) fibres were melt spun by adding nano ZnO loaded Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) master batch (MB) to the PET chips. The influence of content of nano ZnO on the antibacterial properties, crystallization behaviour and mechanical properties was studied. It was found that PET composite fibres having 1 % nano ZnO showed the optimum antibacterial ac...

For a full estimation of the risk related with the presence of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) in the environment, the use of the current ecotoxicological methods may prove insufficient. In the study presented herein, various methods of assessment of ecotoxicity were applied to compare the phytotoxicity of three ENPs: nano-ZnO, nano-TiO2 and nano-Ni. The toxicity was assayed both for aqueous so...
