Ceria coated carbon nanotubes (CeO2@CNTs) were prepared as a versatile support material to improve both the activity and stability of platinum (Pt)-based catalysts. We demonstrated that the CeO2 nanoparticles (NPs) had an extrinsically remote functionalization effect on the Pt electrocatalysis. The...
Literature analysis has shown that metal nanoparticles supported by a hyper cross-linked polystyrene are about ten times more active than conventional catalysts used for glucose oxidation. Absence of transport limitations has been assumed when the reaction is performed in a microreactor. Productivity can...
Pd Nanoparticles-Decorated Three-Dimensional Hierarchical Structure SnO2/rGO@Ni Foam Self-Supporting Electrode for Direct Borohydride-Hydrogen Peroxide Fue... Developing efficient bifunctional electrocatalysts is crucial for improving the performance of direct borohydride-hydrogen peroxide fuel cells (DBHPFCs)....
But few would challenge the fact that much more needs to be known about the human health and environmental implications of nanotechnology, including engineered nanoscale materials and nanoparticles. What is considerably less clear, in large part because of what is not known, is how best to develop...
Some nanomaterials are very effective catalysts with a large potential to degrade pollutants, making the technology more cost effective than the conventional pump-and-treat methods. Current examples for environmental applications are iron-based nanomaterials such as zero-valent iron nanoparticles (Köber ...
CAR encapsulation into lipids (nanoliposomes, nanoemulsions, solid lipids, and nanostructured lipids), inorganic (gold nanoparticles, quantum dots, and carbon nanotubes), and polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) have been utilized to enhance the water solubility, storage stability, controlled and sustained ...
