We incorporated anti-Parkinsonian drug, levodopa (dopa), in Zn/Al-LDH by coprecipitation method to form dopa-LDH nanocomposite. Further coating of Tween-80 on the external surfaces of dopa-LDH nanocomposite was achieved through the oxygen of C=O group of Tween-80 with the layer of dopa-LDH nanocomposite. The final product is called Tween-dopa-LDH nanocomposite. The X-ray diffraction indicates t...

Ni-Fe/Si3N4 nanocomposite coatings with various ratio of Si3N4 to Na-saccharine were prepared by electrodeposition technique. The effect of Si3N4 nanoparticulates in the Ni-Fe nanocomposite coatings was investigated in relation to the ratio of Si3N4 to Na-saccharine in the plating bath. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the Ni-Fe nanocomposite coating has face center cubic structure (FCC)....

Nanocomposite films of metal nitrides such as TiN/Si3N4, TiN/BN, and CrN/AlN have attracted substantial attention as coating materials for improving hardness and saving rare metals. It is difficult to prepare composite films consisting of nitride and oxide by conventional reactive sputtering methods. Nose et al. developed a differential pumping cosputtering (DPCS) system, which can fabricate di...
