In this Letter, dynamic wetting of water nano-droplets containing non-surfactant gold nanoparticles on a gold substrate is examined via molecular dynamics simulations. The results show that the addition of non-surfactant nanoparticles hinders the nano-second droplet wetting process, attributed to the increases in both surface tension of the nanofluid and friction between nanofluid and substrate...

Here, we have utilized Lateral Force Microscopy (LFM) based mechanical pushing of micro/nano-objects to study adhesion and friction characterization at the micro/nanoscale. Continuum micro/nano-friction models for particle rolling, spinning and sliding cases are discussed for general particle-substrate interfaces. A rolling resistance model using the Double-Hertz model is devoloped for such gen...

hydroxyapatite is a biocompatible ceramic and reinforcement for bone implantations. seva/hap composite content hap filler with difference particle sizes were designed. mechanical tests like tensile modulus, uts, strain at break and biodegradation were investigated. results illustrated much increase tensile modulus of composites content hap nano powders ratio to micro powders. also uts analysis ...

The Nano Spray Dryer B-90 offers a new, simple, and alternative approach for the production of drug nanocrystals. In this study, the preparation of steroid nanocrystals using the Nano Spray Dryer B-90 was demonstrated. The particle size was controlled by selecting the mesh aperture size. Submicrometer steroid particles in powder form were successfully obtained. These nanoparticles were confirme...

Cobalt doped Zinc Oxide/Carbon nano composite was synthesized by solution combustion method and characterized by X-ray diffractometer, field emission scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis. This composite shows X-ray diffraction pattern that matched with nano particle of ZnO with wurtzite structure and average grain size was found to be 10.53 nm. . Furthe...

The aim of this study was to assess the interaction of a series of well characterised nano-objects with the Gram negative bacterium Salmonella typhimurium, and how such an interaction may relate to the potential mutagenicity of nano-objects. Transmission electron microscopy showed that nano-objects (Au-PMA-ATTO NPs, CeO₂ NPs, SWCNTs and MWCNTs), as well as CAFs entered S. typhimurium. Only DEPs...

Polarization-interferometric nonlinear confocal microscopy is proposed for measuring a nano-sized particle with optical anisotropy. The anisotropy in the particle was spectroscopically imaged through a three-dimensional distribution of third-order nonlinear dielectric polarization photoinduced. Keywords—nanoparticle, optical storage, microscope

Nano-scale copper oxide with various morphologies is synthesized via the thermal oxide method and growth in a 5 wt% NaCl solution of spray fog environment. The nano-scale copper oxide is grown on copper metal sheets via the thermal oxide method at 650 ̊C for 60 minutes. Nano-scale copper oxide grains and nanowires are induced on copper metal sheets then placed in 5 wt% NaCl solution of salt spra...
