core-shell nanostructures are emerging as more important materials than alloy nanostructures and have much more interesting potential applications in various fields. in this work, we demonstrated the fast and facile synthesis of core-shell nanoparticles consisting of pt thin layer as the shell and ni nanoparticles as the cores. the described method herein is suitable for large-scale and low-cos...

Introduction: Nanoparticles have several exciting applications in various fields of biomedicine. It has been found that among different classes of nanoparticles core/shell is most promising for field of nano-medical imaging and therapy due to their distinct advantages. The core/shell type nanoparticles can be generally comprising of two nanoparticles one act as a core (inner ma...

in this research controlled coating of magnetite (fe3o4) nanoparticles with sio2 was investigated. the fe3o4 nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical co-precipitation and then coated by silica according to stober method. effects of tetra ethyl ortho silicate (teos) concentration and ethanol to teos on the coating thickness were investigated. x-ray powder diffraction, fourier transform infrar...

in this work, hierarchical wo3 core-shell microspheres were synthesized via a facile template-free precipitation method. gas sensing properties of the synthesized powder to acetone and some other volatile organic compounds were comparatively investigated with commercial wo3 nanoparticles. the synthesized and commercial powders were characterized by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscop...

the photocatalytic coatings were prepared via incorporating the modified titania nanoparticles into epoxy-based inorganic-organic hybrid coatings. titania nanoparticles were first synthesized from tetra-n-butyl titanate using sol-gel methods by two different calcination treatments, i.e., in mild condition (80°c) and 500°c. the formed anatase nanoparticles were further modified as titania-silica...

The first stage to have access to a reservoir is the drilling operation. The proper development of this operation plays a major role in increasing productivity. It must be pointed out that the drilling fluid (mud) is pivotal in achieving this objective. Among these fluids, water-based fluids are the most common ones, which have been utilized to drill approximately 80% of all wells and are m...

in this work, we investigated synthesis, magnetic properties of silica coated metal ferrite, (cofe2o4)/sio2 and manganese doped cobalt ferrite nanoparticles (mnxco1-xfe2o4 with x= 0.02, 0.04 and 0.06)/sio2 for possible biomedical application. all the ferrites nanoparticles were prepared by co-precipitation method using fecl3.6h2o, cocl2.6h2o and mncl2.2h2o as precursors, and were silica coated ...

The active substrates in surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy were prepared through self-assembly of nanoparticles on functionalized glasses. Colloidal silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were prepared chemically in two different sizes by reduction of AgNO3 using trisodium citrate and sodium borohydride. Gold–silver core–shell nanoparticles were also prepared to compare between the o...
