Ammonia Sensing Behaviors of TiO2-PANI/PA6 Composite Nanofibers
Titanium dioxide-polyaniline/polyamide 6 (TiO(2)-PANI/PA6) composite nanofibers were prepared by in situ polymerization of aniline in the presence of PA6 nanofibers and a sputtering-deposition process with a high purity titanium sputtering target. TiO(2)-PANI/PA6 composite nanofibers and PANI/PA6 composite nanofibers were fabricated for ammonia gas sensing. The ammonia sensing behaviors of the ...
متن کاملHelical assemblies of gold nanoparticles.
The development of techniques for making helical and semiconductor metallic nanoand microstructures represents the extension of the works of Da Vinci and Archimedes with modern scientifi c tools. It brings forth interesting application concepts along with tough challenges in optics, biology, and mechanics. Making helical metallic objects with submicrometer pitch lengths comparable to the wavele...
متن کاملAssessing Cellular Response to Functionalized α-Helical Peptide Hydrogels
α-Helical peptide hydrogels are decorated with a cell-binding peptide motif (RGDS), which is shown to promote adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of PC12 cells. Gel structure and integrity are maintained after functionalization. This opens possibilities for the bottom-up design and engineering of complex functional scaffolds for 2D and 3D cell cultures.
متن کاملSpontaneous Helical Structure Formation in Laminin Nanofibers.
Laminin is a cross-shaped heterotrimer composed of three polypeptides chains that assembles into an insoluble extracellular matrix (ECM) network as part of the basement membrane, serving a vital role in many processes such as embryonic development, differentiation, and muscle and nerve regeneration. Here we engineered monodisperse laminin nanofibers using a surface-initiated assembly technique ...
متن کاملElectrospun TiO2 nanofibers for gas sensing applications
Nanostructured TiO2 has attracted much attention for a variety of applications including photocatalysts, electrodes for water photolysis, dye-sensitized solar cells, and gas sensors. In this work we report on TiO2 fiber mats for use in gas sensors demonstrating exceptionally high sensitivity to NO2, a toxic gas responsible for acid rain and other air pollution effects, and high sensitivity to H...
