Polymer nanocomposites constitute an important class of materials whose properties depend on the state of dispersion of the nanoparticles in the polymer matrix. Here we report the first observations ...
Nanoparticles, extremely tiny particles measured in billionths of a meter, are increasingly everywhere, and especially in biomedical products. Their toxicity has been researched in general terms, but ...
Plasmonic metal nanostructures (e.g., Au, Cu, Pt, Ru) have attracted considerable attention in photothermal catalysis due to their unique capabilities in light-field regulation and energy conversion.
One scientist would like to put sand into your computer. Not beach sand, but silicon dioxide nanoparticles coated with a high dielectric constant polymer to inexpensively provide improved cooling for ...
Polymer nanoparticles have been extensively studied as possible drug delivery systems because of their ability to control the discharge of drug contained within them and also because of their ...
Nanoparticles are increasingly being used in a wide range of sectors. This article evaluates particular mechanisms through which nanoparticles are uniquely developed and formulated. It also discusses ...
Zeta potential is a key indicator of the stability of colloidal dispersions and nanoparticle suspensions. It measures the electrical potential difference between the bulk of the liquid and the ...
What is Colloidal Silicon Dioxide? Colloidal silicon dioxide, in other terms known as ‘colloidal silica’, is a polymeric form of silicon. The non-toxic, naturally occurring element silicon is listed ...
