Investigation of the physico-mechanical properties of electrospun PVDF/cellulose nanofibers.
(
Wiley
, 2016 , Article)
The electro-activity and mechanical properties of PVDF depends mainly on the b-phase content and degree of crystallinity. In this study, cellulose fibers were used to improve these characteristics. This could be achieved ...
Nickel oxide carbon nanofiber composite for electrochemical oxidation of methanol
(
Electrochemical Society Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Electrospun fibers of a mixture of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), polyaniline (PANI) and graphene were stabilized for 2 h at 200 °C and then carbonized at 800 °C for 5 h. Composites were prepared by depositing Ni(OH)2 on the ...
Photoimmobilization of zwitterionic polymers on surfaces to reduce cell adhesion
(
Academic Press Inc.
, 2017 , Article)
Simple and robust methods for modifying hydrophobic polymer surfaces with zwitterionic polymers using UV irradiation were developed. Two random zwitterionic copolymers consisting of either carboxybetaine or sulfobetaine ...
PVA/chitosan/silver nanoparticles electrospun nanocomposites: Molecular relaxations investigated by modern broadband dielectric spectroscopy
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
In this study, we used broadband dielectric spectroscopy to analyze polymer nanofibers of poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/silver nanoparticles. We also studied the effect of incorporating silver nanoparticles in the polymeric ...
Preparation and characterization of wollastonite/titanium oxide nanofiber bioceramic composite as a future implant material
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
In this study, novel composites consisting of electrospun titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanofibers incorporated into high-purity wollastonite glass ceramics were prepared as materials for use in hard tissue engineering applications. ...
Electrospun nanofibers of PVDF-HFP composites containing magnetic nickel ferrite for energy harvesting application
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
Nickel ferrite nanoparticles (NiFe2O4) synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method, are added to poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoroproplyene) (PVDF-HFP) in specific concentrations (1, 2, and 3 wt%) and the composite ...
Reduction in piezoelectric voltage generation for the cerium doped nickel ferrite nanoparticles filled PVDF-HFP nanocomposites
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
This paper describes the synthesis of grape cluster shaped nickel ferrite (NiFe 2 O 4 ) and cerium doped nickel ferrite (Ce-NiFe 2 O 4 ) nanoparticles by chemical co-precipitation and their addition to poly(vinylidene ...
Yttrium oxide nanoparticle loaded scaffolds with enhanced cell adhesion and vascularization for tissue engineering applications
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
In situ tissue engineering is emerging as a novel approach in tissue engineering to repair damaged tissues by boosting the natural ability of the body to heal itself. This can be achieved by providing suitable signals and ...
Corrosion protection of electrospun PVDF-ZnO superhydrophobic coating
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
A one-step electrospinning technique was used to prepare a protective superhydrophobic PVDF–ZnO nanocomposite coating for aluminum against corrosion. The wettability and morphology of the prepared coating surfaces was ...
Influence of bimetallic nanoparticles composition and synthesis temperature on the electrocatalytic activity of NiMn-incorporated carbon nanofibers toward urea oxidation
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
High efficiency, cost effectivity and the availability of hydrogen are the advantages of
electrolysis as a strategy for urea-containing wastewater treatment. Composition,
morphology, and synthesis-temperature distinctly ...
