Reducing ZnO nanoparticles toxicity through silica coating
ZnO NPs have good antimicrobial activity that can be utilized as agents to prevent harmful microorganism growth in food. However, the use of ZnO NPs as food additive is limited by the perceived high toxicity of ZnO NPs in many earlier toxicity studies. In this study, surface modification by silica coating was used to reduce the toxicity of ZnO NPs by significantly reducing the dissolution of th...
متن کاملSelective dip-coating of chemically micropatterned surfaces
We characterize the selective deposition of liquid microstructures on chemically heterogeneous surfaces by means of dip coating processes. The maximum deposited film thickness depends critically on the speed of withdrawal as well as the pattern size, geometry, and angular orientation. For vertically oriented hydrophilic strips, we derive a hydrodynamic scaling relation for the deposited film th...
متن کاملConformal dip-coating of patterned surfaces
Capillarity-driven self-assembly of small chips onto planar target substrates is a promising alternative to robotic pick-and-place assembly. It critically relies on the selective deposition of thin fluid films on patterned binding sites, which is anyway normally non-conformal. We found that the addition of a thin wetting sidewall, surrounding the entire site perimeter, enables the conformal flu...
متن کاملSilica coating of nanoparticles by the sonogel process.
A modified aqueous sol-gel route was developed using ultrasonic power for the silica coating of indium tin oxide (ITO) nanoparticles. In this approach, organosilane with an amino functional group was first used to cover the surface of as-received nanoparticles. Subsequent silica coating was initiated and sustained under power ultrasound irradiation in an aqueous mixture of surface-treated parti...
متن کاملLithographically directed deposition of silica nanoparticles using spin coating
Directed self-assembly is an important direction for the extension of patterning to the nanoscale regime and below. Here, examples are given of both individual particle placement and composite structure formation involving assemblies of many nanometer scale particles, both on patterned surfaces and on planar surfaces where the photoresist is used as a sacrificial layer to define the pattern and...
