in this work, we report on the synthesis of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles at room temperature using microemulsion template phase consisting of cyclohexane, water, ctab as cationic surfactant and butanol as a cosurfactant. surface modification have been carried out by using poly(ethyleneglycol) (peg). the structure,morphology, and magnetic properties of the products were characteriz...

Silicon nanoparticles were prepared and functionalized with alkene-terminated poly(ethylene oxide) to impart amphiphilic solution properties to the particles.

Iron oxide nanoparticles (magnetite (Fe3O4), hematite (Fe2O3)) have been received increasing attention in drug and gene delivery. In this work, water-base double layer functionalized iron oxide nanoparticles (DL-IONPs) were designed and prepared of a biodegradable, biocompatible carrier by co-precipitation method with high DNA loading capacity due to self-assembly of a second organic layer. The...

Cysteic acid functionalized mineral oxide nanoparticles can be used to impart superhydrophilic performance on a range of woven and non-woven fabrics. Woven fabrics spray dip coated alumina iron based cysteic nanoparticles, were characterized by SEM, EDX the change in water contact angle was measured or where increased hydrophilicity sufficiently great that time for adsorption droplet measured. ...

in this study, a mixed matrix polyethersulfone/iron-nickel oxide nanoparticle nanofiltration membrane was prepared by the solution casting technique. polyvinylpyrrolidone was also used as a membrane pore former in membrane fabrication. the effect of iron-nickel oxide nanoparticles concentration in the casting solution on the membrane structure and performance was investigated. scanning optical ...

objective(s): pseudomonas aeruginosa is a nosocomial pathogen resistant to most antimicrobial treatments. furthermore, it persists in adverse environments thereby forming biofilms on various surfaces. researchers have therefore focused on antibiofilm strategies using nanoparticles due to their unique physicochemical properties. superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (sionps) have recently s...

Enshrined in this review are the biogenic fabrication and applications of coated and uncoated iron and iron oxide nanoparticles. Depending on their magnetic properties, they have been used in the treatment of cancer, drug delivery system, MRI, and catalysis and removal of pesticides from potable water. The polymer-coated iron and iron oxide nanoparticles are made biocompatible, and their slow r...

Nanoparticle-functionalized 2D material networks are promising for a wide range of applications, but in situ formation nanoparticles is commonly challenged by rapid growth. Here, we demonstrate controlled synthesis small and dispersed iron oxide on reduced graphene (rGO) through localized heating with microwaves low-cost nitrate as the precursor. The strong coupling microwave radiation rGO netw...
