A review on the role of acemannan in the Aloe -based nanostructures
n recent years’ nanostructure materials (NSMs) have been of great interest as catalysts and other applications because of
their unique textural and structural characteristics. Out of various biomaterials employed for NPs synthesis, plant extracts
have attracted much attention due to their effectiveness, availability, and green characteristics. Due to the range of chemical
constituents, currently, the incorporation of the Aloe chemical constituents into other substances makes the biosynthesis of
NPs which are very necessary for the formation and applications ofAloe-based NPs
UVC-Shielding by Nano-TiO2/PMMA Composite: A Chemical Approach
A translucent UV protecting poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/TiO2 nanocomposite has been fabricated using anatase TiO2 nanoparticles by solution method. The myristic acid capped titania nanoparticles were synthesized via a simple sol-gel method, involving hydrolysis of titanium tetra isopropoxide (TTIP).
Plasmon Mediated Photocatalysis by Solar Active Ag/ZnO Nanostructures: Degradation of Organic Pollutants in Aqueous Conditions
Present article focuses on the in-situ generated Ag/ZnO nano catalyst for effluent treatment. It is observed that synthesis of the catalyst using starch as environment friendly surfactant resulted in plate like elongated Zinc Oxide nanoparticles.
Application of Nanotechnology in Photovoltaic
Nanotechnology mainly consists of the processing, separation, consolidation, and deformation of materials by one atom or by one molecule. It is an applied research of materials and devices operated at nanometer scale.
Introduction to the special issue on ‘Nanostructures by Valve Metal Anodization’
With this special issue of JMSN we are pleased to present significant contributions to a fascinating topic in the field of materials nanostructing, which is the anodization of valve metals. By this treatment porous oxides of controlled geometry can be grown on the respective metal surfaces. To date, aluminum (Al) has been used most often, as confirmed in this special issue where nine out of ten contributions deals with its anodization.
Preparation of Large Area Anodic Alumina Membranes and their Application to Thin Film Fuel Cell
The design of an electrochemical reactor for the preparation of self-supported comparatively thin (up to 10 μm) and large area (up to 50 cm2) anodic alumina membranes is described allowing growth of porous alumina at high applied potential (up to 150 V) without burning.
