A facile, ultrasensitive, and selective sensor strip utilizing 4-amino-3-penten-2-one (fluoral-p) functionalized electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) (PAN/fluoral-p) nanofibrous membranes has been successfully developed for naked-eye colorimetric assay of formaldehyde. The sensor strips presented a significant reflectance decreasing band at 417 nm which induced a vivid color change from white to...

Polyvinylchloride (PVC) based heterogeneous cation exchange membranes were prepared by the solution casting technique. The effect of super activated carbon nanoparticles concentration as filler additive in membrane matrix on ionic transfer behaviors of the membrane was studied. SOM images showed uniform particles distribution and relatively uniform surfaces for the membranes. The membrane water...
