چکیده

We describe a convenient route to the alignment of cyclic peptide nanotubes (CPNs). The key lies in the use of nanostructured ionic liquids. An ionic liquid supported membrane with orientated domains is demonstrated, leading to aligned CPNs within a solid membrane.

Electroanalytical sensing of Asulam based on nanocomposite modified glassy carbon electrode

In this study a facile approach to employ Copper nanoparticle (CuNPs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) as the nanomaterial for selective detection of asulam have been investigated. This work reports the electrocatalytic oxidation of asulam on glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT), ionic liquids (IL), chitosan (Chit) and copper nanoparticles ...

Why single-walled carbon nanotubes can be dispersed in imidazolium-based ionic liquids.

Spectroscopic and molecular modeling studies were performed to investigate the underlying dispersion mechanism of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in imidazolium-based ionic liquids. Both the experimental and the simulation evidence indicate that the ionic liquids interact with SWCNTs through weak van der Waals interaction other than the previous assumed "cation-pi" interaction. Therefor...

Voltammetric Determination of Tryptophan Using a Carbon Paste Electrode Modified with Magnesium Core Shell Nanocomposite and Ionic Liquids

A novel carbon paste electrode modified with ionic liquid (n-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluoro phosphate) and magnetic core-shell manganese ferrite nanoparticles (MCSILCPE) was fabricated. The electrochemical study of the modified electrode, as well as its efficiency for electro-oxidation of tryptophan, is described. Cyclic voltammetry (CV), choronoamperometry (CHA) and square wave voltammet...

Nanoscale carbon greatly enhances mobility of a highly viscous ionic liquid.

The ability to encapsulate molecules is one of the outstanding features of nanotubes. The encapsulation alters physical and chemical properties of both nanotubes and guest species. The latter normally form a separate phase, exhibiting drastically different behavior compared to the bulk. Ionic liquids (ILs) and apolar carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are disparate objects; nevertheless, their interaction...

سنتز و بررسی رفتار حرارتی مایعات یونی هایپرگول جدید بر پایه کاتیون ایمیدازولیوم و آنیون دی سیانامید

A hypergolic bipropellant s consist of fuels and oxidizers that can ignite rapidly upon mixing without external ignition devices . This self –ignition technology makes the engine ignition more reliable with repeated use. Recently, ionic liquids with the dicyanamide anion which shown good hypergolic properties when contacted with common oxidizer such as concentrated nitric acid, were attracte...
