Designing dual phase sensing materials from polyaniline filled styrene-isoprene-styrene composites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
The demand for developing oil detectors is ever increasing since the cleanup and recovery from oil spill usually take long time. Here we propose oil sensors made of polyaniline (PANI) filled poly(styrene-isoprene-styrene) ...
Eco-Friendly Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Materials from Flexible Reduced Graphene Oxide Filled Polycaprolactone/Polyaniline Nanocomposites
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Hybrid nanocomposites have the unique ability of enhancing material properties due to the existing synergistic effect of the fillers. In this study, the authors report such an eco-friendly hybrid nanocomposite comprising ...
Emerging clay-aryl-gold nanohybrids for efficient electrocatalytic proton reduction
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
There is an ever growing demand for renewable sources of energy to replace conventional fossil fuels. One of the alternatives is usage of hydrogen production by electrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Toward ...
Bentonite-decorated calix [4] arene: A new, promising hybrid material for heavy-metal removal
(
Elsevier
, 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 ...
Highly conductive phase change composites based on paraffin-infiltrated graphite panels for photo/electrothermal conversion and storage
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
The extensive utilization of phase change materials (PCMs) for thermal energy harvesting, storage, and thermal management is often constrained by their inadequate thermal and electrical conductivity, form instability, and ...
Perfluoroctylsilane grafted Ti3C2X-based hydrogel liquid marble for controlled movement, self-assembly, light-induced release, and water evaporation system
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
In this study, a stable and highly hydrophobic perfluoroctylsilane grafted Ti3C2X (PFMXene) possessing repeatable and stable photothermal behavior was applied for fabrication of liquid marble (LM) and hydrogel-based LM. ...
Exchange counterion in polycationic hydrogels: Tunability of hydrophobicity, water state, and floating capability for a floating ph device
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
Smart gel materials are capable of controlling and switching swelling, water state, and wettability properties triggered by external stimuli. In this study, we fabricated a series of polyelectrolyte hydrogels bearing a ...
Modified os sepiae of Sepiella inermis as a low cost, sustainable, bio-based adsorbent for the effective remediation of boron from aqueous solution
(
Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH
, 2022 , Article)
The occurrence of boron in low concentration is essential; however, a higher concentration of boron source in water has a toxic effect on humans as well as have retard effect on agricultural plant growth. Thus, the affordable ...
Purification of emulsified oily polluted waters with modified melamine foams
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Oil and gas industry operations produce tremendous amounts of wastewater (produced water; PW). Tertiary treatment of the PW in the final treatment stage is challenging due to the presence of colloids with sizes < 500 nm ...
Electrochemical Investigation of Interfacial Properties of Ti3C2Tx MXene Modified by Aryldiazonium Betaine Derivatives
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2020 , Article)
For efficient and effective utilization of MXene such as biosensing or advanced applications, interfacial modification of MXene needs to be considered. To this end, we describe modification of Ti3C2Tx MXene by aryldiazonium-based ...
