Abstract:

Nanocomposite membrane comprising of both organic and inorganic material qualities have become a prime focus for the next generation membranes. Nanocomposite may consist of hard permeable or impermeable inorganic particles, such as zeolites, carbon molecular sieves and, silica and carbon nanotubes, metal oxide blended with continuous polymeric matrix presents an attractive approach for improving the separation properties of polymeric membranes. In this review, we have specifcally focused the discussion on metal oxides like MgO, Fe2O3, Fe3O4, and TiO2 along with silver NPs as fller in the formation of Nanocomposite membrane. The effects of these fllers on membrane characteristics, structure and performance using different applications have been discussed.

The Potential of Nanoparticles for Upgrading Thin Film Nanocomposite Membranes – A Review

Over the past decade, many applications were intended for filtration by membrane technology especially the thin film composite (TFC) membranes. In advanced developments of thin film membranes, an attempt was made to spread a new generation of membranes called thin film nano composite (TFN) membranes. However, in the last generation of TFNs, an ultrathin selective film of nanoparticles is coated...

Fe-Ag nanocomposite: Hydrothermal preparation of iron nanoparticles and silver dendrite like nanostructures

At the first stage Fe3O4 and Fe nanoparticles were synthesized via a simple hydrothermal method. Then silver nanoparticles and Fe-Ag nanocomposites were synthesized in the presence of NaBH4. The prepared products were characterized by X-ray diffraction pattern, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Vibrating Sample magnetometer illustrated that Fe nanopartic...

Deposition of silver nanoparticles on titanium surface for antibacterial effect

Microbial colonization on implanted devices and biofilm formation is a recurrent complication in implant surgery and may result in loss of implants. The aim of this study was to deposit silver nanoparticles on a titanium surface to obtain antibacterial properties. In the present study, we prepared a silver nanoparticle-modified titanium (Ti-nAg) surface using silanization method. The morphology...

Antibacterial titanium plate deposited by silver nanoparticles exhibits cell compatibility

Microbial colonization and biofilm formation on the surface of implant devices may cause peri-implantitis and lead to bone loss. The aim of this study was to develop a novel antibacterial titanium implant surface and to test its biological performance. In a previous study, we demonstrated that titanium plates deposited by nanosilver acquired antibacterial activity to Staphylococcus aureus and E...
