In this study, we investigate the interactions between the cellulose surface and Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) for the purpose of manufacturing hybrid nanomaterials using bacterial cellulose nanocrystals (BCNs) as a model substrate. We focus on the role of the BCN surface chemistry on the AgNP nucleation obtained by chemical reduction of Ag+ ions. Homog...

This work describes the formation of two-dimensional molybdenum di-sulfide (MoS2) nanosheets via topochemical sulfurization of MoO3 microplates and its applications towards wide-temperature tolerant supercapacitors. Physico-chemical characterizations such as XRD, FE-SEM, HR-TEM, XPS and elemental mapping analysis revealed the formation of MoS2 nano...

Molecular extraction efficiency can be boosted with the assistance of nanoparticles (NPs). It is based on adsorption of the extractants in one phase and desorption in another phase, which requires a reversible phase transfer of the NPs. We synthesized the [email protected](N-isopropylacryamide) ([email protected]) NPs via an interfacial self-assembly method enhanc...

The synthesis of earth-abundant, low-cost, and stable electrocatalysts with high efficiency in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a necessary requirement for improving the effectiveness of electrochemical water splitting approach. To date, expensive electrode materials and time-consuming synthesis procedures have generally been used for the ele...

While dynamics of particles in slurries is usually evaluated by dynamic light scattering measurements, this technique had only been applicable to particles in the bulk slurries. Because this limitation is mainly owing to strong reflection of light, the dynamics of particles in slurries spreading/drying on solid substrates is to be obtained by spati...

Cation exchange membranes (CEMs) are subject to fouling when utilized to desalinate wastewater from the oil and gas industry, hampering their performance. The kind and extent of the fouling are most likely dependent on the composition of the stream, which in practical applications can vary significantly. Fouling experiments were performed on commer...

In the present work, we introduce a dual carbon accommodated structure in which germanium nanoparticles are encapsulated into an ordered mesoporous carbon matrix (Ge-CMK) and further coated with an amorphous carbon layer ([email protected]) through a nano-casting route followed by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) treatment. In the resultant [email protected] composit...

Herein, the ultra-thin layer MoS2 coverd MoO2 nanocrystal arraying on sulfur-doped graphene framework (MoS2-MoO2/3DSG) is obtained via a simple hydrothermal procedure accompanied with high temperature annealing. Sodium thiosulfate and ethanethiol are used as sulfur sources to form three-dimensional sulfur doped graphene (3DSG) in the hydrothermal p...

In this work, a simple and effective method is developed to synthesize zinc ferrite nanoparticles (ZnFe2O4) in a redox coprecipitation reaction system containing only ferrous and zinc salt followed by a solid-state reaction. On this foundation, ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles with reduced size are further immobilized by reduced graphene oxide (RGO) to engine...
