NanomaterialsSoil enzyme activitySoil respirationEngineered nanomaterials (NMs) have been widely used and could be released to soil environments, yet a consensus has not been reached on how soil enzyme activity, one of the most important indicators of soil health, responds to NMs exposure. Here, a...
different types of nanomaterials focusing on membranes for treating a variety of pollutants in water/wastewater. The application of nanomaterials is reviewed based on their functions in unit operation processes. Section4provides a summary and outlook in the form of conclusions and recommendations for ...
This advancement will enable the construction industry to realize the potential of NM-enhanced GPC successfully. The present review demonstrated that the geopolymer concrete showed enhancements in engineering properties and effectiveness when modified with different types of nanomaterials and tested under ...
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) constitute one of the most important types of nanomaterials, increasingly gaining interest as tools for nanomedicine applications, such as sensors, implants or delivery systems. Our groups have reported previously that chemical functionalization of CNTs can lead to their almost co...
To broaden the list of possible nanomaterials and examine their suitability over hot-carrier excitation, the experience was exciting investigating the unique plasmonic compounds that generate and trap heat carriers [13]. The absorption of light by noble metallic nanoparticles is particularly intense and ...

The use of nanofluids in place of water as a base fluid enhances all parameters of solar collectors. Further, the future investigations should be done in this area to analyze the various other properties like optical, magnetic, optoelectronic properties of nanomaterials so that one can see the ef...
Nanoslits composed of different layered nanomaterials attract great attention in the theoretical and experimental investigations of nanofluidic devices due to their geometric simplicity and unique surface properties. Although many efforts have...

Among nanomaterials, silica (SiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) have received considerable attention as a possible alternative to conventional insecticides. The insecticidal properties of silica NPs are thought to be due to direct abrasion of the insect cuticle8,9,10or sorption through the cuticular layers2. ...
