Abstract The evolution of nanomaterials has been critical in modifying materials at the nanoscale for specialized uses. Carbon nanotubes were initially viewed as promising for electronics, but their inability to discriminate between semiconducting and metallic phases led to the creation of quasi- [...] 133 697 |
Leaf Mediated Curcuma sp. Silver Nanoparticles as Catalyst - Evaluating Their Antioxidant, Cytotoxicity, Para-Nitrophenol Catalytic and Photocatalytic ActivityAbstract Nanotechnology is a fast-rising market in catalytic research; however, the production of eco-friendly nanoparticles remains a significant challenge. In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized from the agro-industrial waste of leaves of C. longa, C. aromatica, [...] 138 1015 |
Kinetic Model for the Hydrolysis of Olive Oil by Lipase in Absence of EmulsifierAbstract Lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of olive oil has been studied in the absence of emulsifier. A simple mathematical model to predict the hydrolysis rate is derived from a proposed kinetic mechanism of the reaction. The hydrolytic reaction obeys Michaelis-Menten kinetics with a simultaneous second-order en [...] 95 689 |

Abstract Disperse porous Mn-doped ZnO-ZrO2 nanocomposites were prepared using the facile polymer-salt method. The effect of Mn content on the crystal structure, composite morphologies, their ability to photogenate the singlet oxygen, luminescence properties, and bactericidal activities [...] 131 1032 |
Determination of Reflectance Spectra and Colorimetry of Titanium and Tungsten Oxides Obtained by Microwave-assisted Hydrothermal SynthesisAbstract Sustainability has driven the use of heterogeneous photocatalysis as one of the primary methods for environmental decontamination, reduction, degradation, remediation, or transformation of polluting chemical residues and purification treatment of effluents and wastewater. TiO2 [...] 138 838 |

Abstract Ilmenite is a mineral whose crystallinity can be altered by chemical treatment, producing TiO2 and iron and titanium-based metal nanocomposites, which are applicable mainly for photocatalysis. Porous and crystalline biomass-derived carbon materials include graphene oxide, redu [...] 164 1289 |
A Remarkable Pt Doped CNT Catalyst as a Double Functional Material: Its Application for Hydrogen Production and SupercapacitorAbstract In this study, by producing bifunctional material, hydrolysis, and supercapacitor applications were investigated. The carbon nanotube-supported Pt catalyst was prepared using the sodium borohydride (NaBH4) reduction. Surface characterization of the synthesized Pt/CNT catalyst [...] 198 1653 |
The Effect of SnO2 and Rh on Pt Nanowire Catalysts for Ethanol OxidationAbstract In this study, we synthesized Pt-Rh nanowires (NWs) through chemical reduction of metallic precursors using formic acid at room temperature, excluding the use of surfactants, templates, or stabilizing agents. These NWs were supported on two substrates: carbon (Vulcan XC-72R) and carbon modified with [...] 359 1929 |
