Silica mesoporous structures: effective nanocarriers in drug delivery and nanocatalysts
(Mdpi, 2020)
The application of silica mesoporous structures in drug delivery and the removal of pollutants and organic compounds through catalytic reactions is increasing due to their unique characteristics, including high loading ...
Novel strategy for one-step production of attenuated Ag-containing AgCu/ZnO antibacterial-antifungal nanocomposite particles
(Springer, 2020)
Novel strategies have been developed to comply with Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) regulations to provide the same performances for antibacterial and antifungal materials. The ...
Photophysical, kinetic and thermodynamic study of one-component Type II thioxanthone acetic acid photoinitiators
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020)
In this study, One-Component Type II thioxanthone acetic acid based photoinitiators, as well as the conventional Type II photoinitiator with phenyl acetic acid based co-initiators, have been investigated in terms of their ...
Multifunctional alginate-based hydrogel with reversible crosslinking for controlled therapeutics delivery
(Elsevier, 2020)
Glycan-based alginate hydrogels have great potential in creating new vehicles with responsive behavior and tunable properties for biomedicine. However, precise control and tunability in properties present major barrier for ...
Fabrication and characterization of Yb-doped Y2O3 powders and thin films
(Carl Hanser Verlag, 2020)
Yttrium oxide (Y2O3) and ytterbium (Yb)-doped Y2O3 particles were synthesized via the sol-gel method from the aqueous solution of their nitrate salts. The synthesized powders were then deposited on Corning glass substrates ...
Janus interface materials: a critical review and comparative study
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2020)
In recent years, Janus interface materials with wettability contrast have attracted remarkable attention because of their beneficial properties and versatile potential applications in materials science including transport, ...
New proposal for size and size-distribution evaluation of nanoparticles synthesized via ultrasonic spray pyrolysis using search algorithm based on image-processing technique
(Mdpi, 2020)
Nanoparticle properties are correlated to their size, size distribution, and shape; it is essential to accurately measure these features in the field of nanoscience. In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized ...
A straightforward approach for the synthesis of nanostructured Y2O3 particles: synthesis, morphology, microstructure and crystal imperfection
(Elsevier, 2020)
A facile and straightforward approach has been implemented for the synthesis of nanostructured Y2O3 particles via sol-gel method from yttrium nitrate solution. The individual effects of calcination temperature, ...
Electrochemical MIP sensor for butyrylcholinesterase
(Mdpi, 2019)
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) mimic the binding sites of antibodies by substituting the amino acid-scaffold of proteins by synthetic polymers. In this work, the first MIP for the recognition of the diagnostically ...
Effect of surface modification of colloidal silica nanoparticles on the rigid amorphous fraction and mechanical properties of amorphous polyurethane-urea-silica nanocomposites
(Wiley, 2019)
Colloidal silica nanoparticles (NPs) modified with eight different silane coupling agents were incorporated into an amorphous poly(tetramethylene oxide)-based polyurethane-urea copolymer matrix at a concentration of 10 wt ...
