Morphological change from nano-cube to nano-sphere by addition of Ni to W in RF thermal plasma synthesis

, , , , , , , , ,
Pure W and W-Ni nano-particles were effectively synthesized by feeding thermo-physically favorable oxide feedstock micro-powder into argon-hydrogen thermal plasma. During the process, feedstock particle underwent a vaporization, reduction, and condensation pathway. Significant amount of nano-cube [...]

Preparation and characterization of release behavior for hydrophilic drug loaded alginate nanohydrogels

, , , , , , , , , , ,
Recently, there have been considerable interests in developing biodegradable nanoparticles as effective drug delivery devices. Alginate is one of the hydrophilic natural polymers having biodegradability and biocompatibility. It has possibility to apply in the controlled [...]
