Recently, Miyako group reported a new type of nano transporters that made of a liposome that decorated by a composition of carbon nanohorns (CNHs) and magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) (Figure 1). This structure permeated into cells by a Neodymium magnet. Nano transporters not only could be moved by the magnetic field but also can be stimulated by NIR laser to control the release of liposome contai...

this research evaluates the efficiency of nanosized zno in the catalytic ozonation of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol and determines the effect of ph on heterogeneous catalytic ozonation. the combined use of ozone and zno catalyst leads to conversion of 98% 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol during 5 min. in addition, it was found that in zno catalytic ozonation, the degradation efficiency of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol...

an efficient method for purification of yard-glass shaped boron nitride nanotubes (yg-bnnts) fabricated via a chemical vapour reaction (cvr) route has been developed. impurities including carbon, boron nitride (bn), and fe species in the pristine yg-bnnt sample are removed by a combined physical and chemical procedure which involves ultrasonication, high temperature oxidation, hot-water washing...

using c2h2, 112 and as gases at 550'c, carbon nanotubes were fabricated on the surfaces of twosubstrates coated by nano thin layers of metal catalysts by dc magnetron sputtering. aystamless steel andfe/cteal, by thermal chemical vapor deposition (tcvd) the surface properties of the substrates wereparticularly investigated, and the effect of treatment of the substrates on the cnt's growth is cri...

the main objective of the present study is to investigate the feasibility of using carboxymethyl chitosan magnetic nanoparticles (ccmn) for the adsorption of cd2+. the study also reports important parameters, which affect the adsorption process, i.e., ph, adsorbent dose, contact time and concentration of cd2+, using box-behnken designs. firstly, functional carboxymethyl chitosan magnetic nanopa...

In this investigation a simplified arc discharge apparatus was used to synthesize mullti-wall carbon nanotubes. Because of not requiring vacuum equipment, heat exchange system, active or inert gases, this method is found to be cheaper and simpler than traditional arc discharge in gas environment. Using this method, CNTs are produced by performing an arc discharge between two graphite electrodes...

Reddish Au condensates, predominant atom clusters and minor amount of multiply twinned particles and fcc nanoparticles with internal compressive stress, were produced by pulsed laser ablation on gold target in de-ionized water under a very high power density. Such condensates were self-assembled as lamellae and then nano- to micro-diameter tubes with multiple walls when aged at room temperature...
