In this work, montmorillonite (MMT) nanoclay and graphene quantum dots (GQDs) embedded poly (vinylidenefluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) nanocomposite films were prepared using the solution-casting technique and characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning...

Recent complications on the use of polypropylene meshes for hernia repair has led to the development of meshes or films, which were based on resorbable polymers such as polycaprolactone (PCL), polylactic acid (PLA) and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA). These materials are able to cr...

In the present study, a stable and more selective electrochemical sensor for catechol (CC) detection at magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer modified with green reduced graphene oxide modified glassy carbon electrode (MIP/rGO@Fe3O4/GCE). Two steps have been applied to achieve the imprintin...

Membrane technology is of great interest in various environmental and industrial applications, where membranes are used to separate different mixtures of gas, solid-gas, liquid-gas, liquid-liquid, or liquid-solid. In this context, nanocellulose (NC) membranes can be produced with predefined properties ...

This article reports a simple thermal annealing-assisted direct synthesis method to prepare copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles incorporated in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films and a systematic study of their optical properties. CuO-PVA nanocomposite films are prepared with a different weight percentage...
