Surface-modified polyacrylonitrile nanofibers as supports
(Springer Verlag, 2017)
Polyacrylonitrile nanofibers (PAN-nfs) are one of the most studied nanofibres because of their excellent characteristics, such as good mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and good thermal stability. Due to the easy ...
Chlorine oxidation of VOCs at a semi-rural site in Beijing: significant chlorine liberation from ClNO2 and subsequent gas- and particle-phase Cl–VOC production
(European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2018)
Nitryl chloride (ClNO2) accumulation at night acts
as a significant reservoir for active chlorine and impacts the
following day’s photochemistry when the chlorine atom is
liberated at sunrise. Here, we report simultaneous ...
A fumonisins immunosensor based on polyanilino-carbon nanotubes doped with palladium telluride quantum dots
(MDPI, 2015)
An impedimetric immunosensor for fumonisins was developed based on
poly(2,5-dimethoxyaniline)-multi-wall carbon nanotubes doped with palladium telluride
quantum dots onto a glassy carbon surface. The composite was assembled ...
An electrochemically active green synthesized polycrystalline NiO/MgO catalyst: Use in photo-catalytic applications
(Elsevier, 2018)
For many years, research scientists have aided communities in their tremendous efforts towards environmental remediation. Due to their high physical and chemical stability, metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) have been used as ...
Application on gold nanoparticles-dotted 4-nitrophenylazo graphene in a label-free impedimetric deoxynivalenol immunosensor
(MDPI, 2015)
In this paper, we report a new concept to construct a label-free electrochemical
inhibition-based immunosensor for the detection of the mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON)
in cereal samples. The electrochemical impedance ...
Synthesis, characterization and antibacterial activity studies of new 2‑pyrral‑L‑amino acid Schif base palladium (II) complexes.
(Chemical Papers, 2020)
Three new 2-pyrral amino acid Schif base palladium (II) complexes were synthesized, characterized and their activity against
six bacterial species was investigated. The ligands: Potassium 2-pyrrolidine-L-methioninate (L1), ...
Synthesis and characterization of carbon doped TiO2 photocatalysts supported on stainless steel mesh by sol-gel method
(Korean Carbon Society, 2017)
This study synthesized pure anatase carbon doped TiO2 photocatalysts supported on a stainless
steel mesh using a sol-gel solution of 8% polyacrylonitrile (PAN)/dimethylformamide
(DMF)/TiCl4. The influence of the pyrolysis ...
Simultaneous brewery wastewater treatment and hydrogen generation via hydrolysis using Mg waste scraps
(Journal of Cleaner Production, 2020)
An advanced, eco-efficient “waste plus waste to hydrogen” method was developed for hydrogen generation and the simultaneous treatment of two types of waste generated from magnesium and brewerybased industries via hydrolysis. ...
Improved bi-functional oxygen electrocatalytic performance of PteIr alloy nanoparticles embedded on MWCNT with Pt-enriched surfaces
(Energy, 2020)
Multi-walled carbon nanotube supported PteIr nanoparticles (PteIr/MWCNT) with different elemental ratios were synthesized by one-pot co-reduction approach under ambient conditions. The PteIr catalysts exhibit improved ...
Desalination and seawater quality at Green Point, Cape Town: A study on the effects of marine sewage outfalls
(Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf), 2017)
This paper presents our collection methods, laboratory protocols and findings in respect of sewage pollution
affecting seawater and marine organisms in Table Bay, Cape Town, South Africa, then moves to consider ...
