Cellulose Fiber Immobilized Silver Nanoparticles and Their Applications in Catalysis, SERS and Antimicrobial Activity

Baruah B., Kennesaw State University, US

This work involves in-situ preparation of silver nanoparticles on nonwoven fibers in baby wipes (a mixture of synthetic fiber and cellulose fiber) by impregnating Ag+ ions. The Ag+ ions in the micronanopores of the fibers [...]

In-Situ Synthesis of Hydrazine in Graphene Oxide Suspension and Stable Dispersion of Spontaneously Reduced Graphene Oxide Assisted by Hexamethyldisilazane

Han J.T., Jang J.I., Jeong B.H., Jeong H.J., Jeong S.Y., Jeong B.H., Jeong H.J., Jeong S.Y., Jeong B.H., Jeong H.J., Jeong S.Y., Lee G.W., Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute, KR

The development of the efficient and environmental-friendly reduction method of graphene oxide (GO) in solution is one of challenges. Here we show the environmetally friendly reduction and a solution processability of chemically modified graphene nanoplatelets [...]

‘In situ polymerization and composite formation’ (IPCF): An important synthesis route in advanced materials science

Mallick K., Witcomb M.J., Strydom A.M., Mintek, ZA

‘In situ polymerization and composite formation’ (IPCF) types of reactions for the synthesis of ‘metal-polymer composite material’ have a potential advantage in the area of ‘synthetic material science’ since both the polymer and the nanoparticles [...]
