We demonstrate rapid microfluidic fabrication of hybrid microparticles composed of functionalized viral nanotemplates directly embedded in polymeric hydrogels. Specifically, genetically modified tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) templates were covalently labeled with fluorescent markers or metalized with palladium (Pd) nanoparticles (Pd-TMV) and then suspended in a poly(ethylene glycol)-based solution...

Abstract Supported Fe‐doped Pd‐nanoparticles (NPs) are prepared via soft transformation of a PdFe‐metal oraganic framework (MOF). The thus synthesized bimetallic PdFe‐NPs supported on FeO x @C layers, which essential for developing well‐defined and distributed small NPs, 2.3 nm with 35% metal loading. They used as bifunctional nanocatalysts the electrocatalytic water splitting process. display ...

H2 is regarded to play a crucial role in the transition from fossil fuel-based energy economy towards an environmentally friendly one. However, storage of still challenging, but palladium (Pd) based materials show exciting properties. Therefore, nanoparticulate Pd has been intensely studied for hydrogen past years. Here, we stabilize nanoparticles by intercalation between inorganic nanosheets h...

Electrochemical promotion of catalysis (EPOC) has been shown to accelerate the rate of many heterogeneous catalytic reactions; however, it has rarely been reported in low-temperature aqueous electrochemical reactions. Herein, we report a significant EPOC effect for the CO2 reduction to generate formate over Pd nanoparticles (NPs) in a 1 M KHCO3 aqueous solution. By applying a negative potential...

The hydrogen storage capacity of Pd nanoparticles (NPs) decreases as the particles become smaller; however, this reduced is ameliorated by addition Pt. In present work, mechanism and structural transformations core (Pd)–shell (Pt) (CS) solid-solution (SS) NPs during absorption desorption (PHAD) processes are investigated. situ X-ray spectroscopy measurements were performed to study evolution el...

Background: In recent years, nanomaterials have been widely used in large quantities which make people be more frequently exposed to the chemically synthesized nanoparticles (NPs). When NPs are introduced into an organism, they may interact with a variety of cellular components with yet largely unknown pathological consequences. Objective: It was found that NPs enhance the rate of protein fi br...

Current limitations of cancer therapy include the lack of effective strategy for target delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs, and the difficulty of achieving significant efficacy by single treatment. Herein, we reported a synergistic chemo-photothermal strategy based on aptamer (Apt)-polydopamine (pD) functionalized CA-(PCL-ran-PLA) nanoparticles (NPs) for effective delivery of docetaxel (DTX) an...

© 2016 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim 1 wileyonlinelibrary.com applications, metal nanoparticles, oxides, polymers, and many other materials were inkjet-printed.[1] However, the inkjet printing of an essential material for electrochemical applications, palladium (Pd), is less commonly reported. Pd is of significant importance for electrochemical applications due to its high electroc...

A magnetically separable palladium nanocatalyst has been synthesized through the immobilization of onto 3-aminopropylphenanthroline Schiff based functionalized silica coated superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The (Fe3O4@SiNSB-Pd) was fully characterized using several spectroscopic techniques, such as FT-IR, HR-SEM, TEM, XRD, ICP, and XPS. microscopic image showed spherical shape morphology ...
