The effect of heat source/sink on steady two-dimensional laminar MHD mixed convection boundary layer flow past a vertical permeable surface embedded in a porous medium saturated by a nanofluid is performed in this study. Numerical solutions of the similarity equations are obtained using the shooting method. Three types of metallic or nonmetallic nanoparticles, namely Copper (Cu), Alumina (Al2O3...

Electrodeposition of composite coatings based on copper is a promising direction in the creation advanced materials for multifunctional purposes. An important area composites application to use them treatment systems gas emissions and wastewater. It advisable semiconductor oxide materials, particular titanium dioxide, as photocatalysts photo destruction organic pollutants The structural feature...

Heteroleptic neutral copper(I) dipyrrin complexes have been synthesised with the general formula [Cu(4,4'-(R)-6,6'-(CH3)-bipyridine)(dipyrrin)], R = CH3 or CO2Et, and H-dipyrrin is either 1,3,7,9-tetramethyldipyrromethene (HL1), 1,13-diphenyl-6,8-diisoindolemethene (HL2), or 1,13-diphenyl-3,11-di(trifluoromethyl)-6,8-diisoindolemethene (HL3). Improved stability was observed across the series , ...

In order to improve the photocatalytic activity of TiO2, we successfully loaded nano-CuO on TiO2 nanomeshes as CuO-TiO2 nanocomposites through a facile electrodeposition method. The optimized calcined temperature after Cu is confirmed 450 °C, which could furthest assist crystallization anatase and guarantee high nanocomposites. Comparing with pure nanomeshes, showed better degradability methyle...

Addition of TiO2 to a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) particle-dispersed composite contributes to the self-cleaning properties of the water-repellent composite. However, its application is limited to outdoor usage or under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. In this study, a novel visible-light-sensitive photocatalytic and superhydrophobic material was developed by adding Cu/WO3 to a PTFE particulate ...

An analysis of the steady mixed convection boundary layer flow past a vertical permeable surface embedded in a porous medium saturated by a nanofluid is performed in this study. Numerical solutions of the similarity equations are obtained using the shooting method. Three types of metallic or nonmetallic nanoparticles, namely Copper (Cu), Alumina (Al2O3) and Titania (TiO2) are considered by usin...

Supported metal catalysts play a central role in the modern chemical industry but often exhibit poor on-stream stability. The strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) offers a route to control the structural properties of supported metals and, hence, their reactivity and stability. Conventional wisdom holds that supported Au cannot manifest a classical SMSI, which is characterized by reversible ...

Research of CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite solar cells had significant attention as the candidate of new future energy. Due to the toxicity, however, lead (Pb) free photon harvesting layer should be discovered to replace the present CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite. In place of lead, we have tried antimony (Sb) and bismuth (Bi) with organic and metal monovalent cations (CH3NH3+, Ag+ and Cu+). Therefore, in this wo...
