Nanocomposite microcapsules with both gold and magnetite nanoparticles in the shell were prepared in a layer-by-layer procedure using biocompatible polyelectrolytes and nanoparticles. The process of a nanocomposite multilayer formation was investigated using a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). In addition, nanocomposite microcapsules were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmi...

The removal of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from water is highly needed because of their increasing use and potential risk to the environment due to their toxic effects. Catalysis over AgNPs has received significant attention because of their highly catalytic performance. However, their use in practical applications is limited due to high cost and limited resources. Here, we present for the fir...

The nanocomposite magnet, which is composed of exchange coupled nanocrystalline soft (Fe3B, α-Fe) and hard (Nd2Fe14B) magnetic phases, was first reported by Coehoorn et al. [1], and the theoretical basis of it was reported by Kneller and Hawig [2]. Nd-Fe-B based nanocomposite magnet has attracted considerable research interest due to its excellent magnetic properties with relatively low amount ...

In this research, the buckling and bending behaviour of smart nanocomposite plate reinforced by single- walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) under electro-magneto-mechanical loadings is studied. The extended mixture rule approach is used to determine the elastic properties of nanocomposite plate. Equilibrium equations of smart nanocomposite plate are derived using the Hamilton’s principle based on ...

Root caries prevention has been a challenge for clinicians due to its special anatomical location, which favors the accumulation of dental plaque. Researchers are looking for anti-biofouling material to inhibit bacterial growth on exposed root surfaces. This study aimed to develop polydopamine-induced-polyethylene glycol (PEG) and to study its anti-biofouling effect against a multi-species cari...

SiO2 coated γ-Fe2O3 nanocomposite powder has been successfully synthesized by chemical vapor condensation process and its feasibility on hyperthermic application was investigated in this study. The power loss of SiO2 coated γ-Fe2O3 nanocomposite powder which means the magnetic heating effect under alternative magnetic field was much higher than the single phase γ-Fe2O3 nano powder due to the ve...

cofe2o4 magnetic nano particles (mnps) were synthesized by an efficient method in aqueous medium with the particle sizes of about 20-50 nm. then, a hybrid nanocomposite of polyaniline (pani)-cofe2o4 mnps has been electrodeposited directly on a stainless steel wire by the potentiostatic method. microscopic images of electrodeposited pani and pani-cofe2o4 nanocomposite coatings were obtained by s...

In this work, a Fe3O4@polydopamine core-shell nanocomposite (Fe3O4/PDA) was synthesized through an in situ self-polymerization methods and was applied as a sorbent for Rhodamine B (RhB) removal. The synthetic procedure is simple and involves no organic solvents. The as-prepared Fe3O4/PDAnanocomposite was characterized by tran...
