Nanotechnology is an emerging field that involves the development, manufacture and measurement of materials and systems in the submicron to nanometer range. Its development is expected to have a large socio-economical impact in practically all fields of industrial activity. However, there is still a lack of information about the potential risks of manufactured nanoparticles for the environment ...

Cellulosic nanomaterials are in the focus of academia and industry to realize light-weight biobased materials with remarkable strength. While effect is well known, distribution these less explored, particularly for paper sheets. Here, we explore 3D micro nanosized cellulosic particles sheets correlate their extent fibrillation inside subsequently properties. To overcome challenges contrast betw...

Nanofluids are composed of nano-sized particles dispersed in a carrier liquid. The present investigation’s aim is to examine theoretically the magneto-thermomechanical coupling phenomena heated nanofluid on stretched surface presence magnetic dipole impact. Fourier’s law heat conduction used evaluate transmission rate fluids ethylene glycol and water along with suspended nanoparticles cobalt–ch...

CoFe2O4 nanoparticles were uniformly anchored on reduced graphene oxide by a facile solvothermal method. The obtained CoFe2O4/reduced graphene oxide (CoFe2O4/rGO) hybrid was employed as catalyst for Li-O2 batteries. It could effectively lower the ORR (oxygen reduction reaction) and OER (oxygen evolution reaction) overpotentials of the batteries and deliver a large capacity of 12 235 mA h grGO(-...

The polycrystalline aluminium substituted nanoparticle size copper cobalt ferrite samples CuxCo1-xFe2-2yAl2yO4 (where x= 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0; y = 0.05, 0.15 and 0.25) have been prepared by standard ceramic technique. The lattice constants of the phases are evaluated from x-ray diffraction data. The effects of Al on both AC and DC Electrical properties are studied. DC Electrical resisti...

Novel shape- and structural-controlled superparamagnetic nanostructures composed of self-supported spherical and rod-like CoFe(2)O(4) colloidal nanocrystals have been prepared by thermolysis of a stoichiometric Co(2+)Fe(2)(3+)-oleate complex in organic solution with periodic injection of hexane for controlling the nucleation, assembly, and growth of the nuclei.
