Facile synthesis of polymer and carbon spheres decorated with highly dispersed metal nanoparticles.

چکیده
Metal nanoparticle-decorated carbon spheres (mn-CSs) are prepared by combining one-pot hydrothermal synthesis and post-synthesis modification. The former sol-gel type process is employed to obtain heteroatom-containing polymer spheres (PSs), which easily attract metal species that, during thermal treatment, are initially converted to nanoparticle-decorated PSs and finally to mn-CSs.

Increasing the hydrogen storage capacity of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) through facile impregnation by TiO2, ZrO2 and ZnO nanocatalysts
Various nanocomposites of TiO2, ZnO and ZrO2 decorated single wall Carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) were fabricated by facile and template free continuous ultrasonication/stirring of virgin metal oxide nanopowders and SWNTs in ethanol under UV-light illumination. The TEM micrographs showed that nanoparticles (NPs) were uniformly dispersed and bonded on the surface of SWNTs. The results of XRD as well a...
متن کاملOne –step synthesis of PdCo alloy nanoparticles decorated on reduced grahene oxide as an Electro-catalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction in Passive Direct Methanol Fuel Cells
We report a Pd-Co (3:1)/graphene oxide (Pd3Co /GO) catalyst through a one-step strategy. GO is synthesized from graphite electrodes using ionic liquid-assisted electrochemical exfoliation. Controllable GO-supported Pd3Co electrocatalystis then was reduced by ethylene glycol as a stabilizing agent to prepare highly dispersed PdCo nanoparticles on carbon graphene oxide to be used as oxygen reduct...

In the present work, magnetic nanocomposites of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) decorated with magnesium ferrite (MgFe2O4) nanoparticles were synthesized successfully by citrate-gel method. The shape, structure, size, and properties of the as-synthesized sample were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD), transmission electron...

Colloidal microand nanospheres have been of continuous research interest, since their intrinsic properties can be finely tuned by changing parameters such as diameter, chemical composition, bulk structure, and crystallinity. Up to now, they have found a broad range of applications in fields such as drug delivery, biodiagnostics, combinatorial synthesis, and photonic band-gap crystals (PBG). The...
