Interfacial Phenomenon and Nanostructural Enhancements in Palladium Loaded Lanthanum Hydroxide Nanorods for Heterogeneous Catalytic Applications
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2018 , Article)
Hydrogenation and cross-coupling reactions are of great importance for industrial applications and noble metal based catalysts are filling the void since the last few decades. However, the high cost of noble metals and ...
Modulation of wettability, gradient and adhesion on self-assembled monolayer by counterion exchange and pH
(
Academic Press Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
In this study, two quaternary ammonium salts derived from L-lipoic acid were applied for self-assembled monolayers formation on rough structured gold surface. The derivatives differ in functionality since one possesses ...
Interfaces study of all-polysaccharide composite films
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2018 , Article)
Films made of xylan (X) and quaternized chitosan (QC) were prepared and the interactions of the polysaccharides on interfaces were discussed. According to elemental analysis, the X film contained also cellulose (31%) which ...
Toward an accurate spectrophotometric evaluation of the efficiencies of photocatalysts in processes involving their separation using nylon membranes
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
Many works include the use of nylon membranes to separate the solid particles of photocatalysts from the photocatalytic reactors, before using spectrophotometers to evaluate the catalysts� performance in the photocatalytic ...
Glycomics meets artificial intelligence – Potential of glycan analysis for identification of seropositive and seronegative rheumatoid arthritis patients revealed
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
In this study, one hundred serum samples from healthy people and patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) were analyzed. Standard immunoassays for detection of 10 different RA markers and analysis of glycan markers on ...
Advanced antifouling zwitterionic layer based impedimetric HER2 biosensing in human serum: Glycoprofiling as a novel approach for breast cancer diagnostics
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
There are two key novel components presented here behind identification of potential novel breast cancer (BCa) diagnostic approach: 1. application of photoimmobilizable zwitterionic hydrogels resisting non-specific protein ...
Tunable properties based on regioselectivity of 1,2,3-triazole units in axially chiral 2,2?-linked 1,1?-binaphthyl-based copolymers for ions and acid responsiveness
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
The synthesis and optical studies of a new chiral binaphthyl-based polymeric sensor are described herein. The polymers were prepared using the copper-catalyzed azide?alkyne cycloaddition reaction between fluorene and ...
Enhanced Z-scheme visible light photocatalytic hydrogen production over ?-Bi 2 O 3 /CZS heterostructure
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Depletion of fossil fuels and associated environmental issues has drawn attention of researchers to renewable energy resources and photocatalytic hydrogen production is considered to be safe and applicable method to meet ...
Bentonite-decorated calix [4] arene: A new, promising hybrid material for heavy-metal removal
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
There is global concern about the contamination of ground, river, and tap waters as well as soil contamination with heavy metal ions; these chemical species are known to not degrade and to cause severe health problems if ...
Ultra-low Pt-decorated NiCu bimetallic alloys nanoparticles supported on reduced graphene oxide for electro-oxidation of methanol
(
Cambridge University Press
, 2018 , Article)
The selectivity of catalyst is an essential factor in direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) and plays an important role to improve their performance. To this end, platinum (Pt)-based low-cost trimetallic catalysts have been ...
