Process monitoring of alumina nanoparticle synthesis by inductively coupled RF thermal plasma

Jong-Won Shin

Since the first inductively coupled plasma (ICP) torch was developed in the 60's, RF thermal plasmas have found a variety of applications in material processing such as crystal growth, thermal spray coatings, spheroidization and vaporization of refractory ...

Cellular toxicity of carbon-based nanomaterials

László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Sandor Kasas, Jin Won Seo

The cellular toxicity of carbon-based nanomaterials was studied as a function of their aspect ratio and surface chemistry. These structures were multiwalled carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers, and carbon nanoparticles. Their toxicity was tested in vitro o ...

Thermoelectrical study of ferromagnetic nanowire structures

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Santiago Serrano Guisan

The mixed effects of heat and charge transports have been studied at room temperature for NiCu and CoCu multilayers with currents perpendicular to the interfaces as well as Ni and Co homogeneous nanowires. In order to carry out this analysis, magnetothermo ...

Catalytic activity of commercial of TiO2 powders for the abatement of the bacteria (E. coli) under solar simulated light: Influence of the isoelectric point

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Paul Bowen, Carlos Morais, Damien Gumy, Rita Hajdu Schenk

Thirteen different commercial TiO2 powders with specific surface areas varying from 9 to 335 m/g and with isoelectric points (IEP) from 3 to 7.5 were investigated for their catalytic activity in E. coli inactivation. The TiO2 samples zeta potential, attenu ...

Remarkable Anion and Cation Effects on Stille Reactions in Functionalised Ionic Liquids

Paul Joseph Dyson, Zhaofu Fei, Dongbin Zhao, Cinzia Chiappe

Task-specific ionic liquids bearing nitrile functional groups attached to the cation and nitrogen-donor-containing anions strongly affect the efficiency of the Stille cross-coupling, influencing the nature of the catalyst and its stability. The relative st ...

Boron-doped diamond-supported Pt nanoparticles synthesized in compartmentalized nanoreactors for electrocatalysis

Christos Comninellis, Guillaume Siné

Platinum nanoparticles have here been synthesized via the microemulsion method that isolates the reactive species from the whole medium into compartmentalized nanoreactors. Such synthesized Pt nanoparticles have diam. included in the 2-5 nm range domain wi ...

Palladium nanoparticles stabilized in block-copolymer micelles for highly selective 2-butyne-1,4-diol partial hydrogenation

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi, Eric Joannet

Pd nanoparticles (2 nm) stabilized in the micelle core of poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(2-vinylpyridine) were studied in partial hydrogenation of 2-butyne-1,4-diol. Both unsupported micelles (0.6 kg Pd/m3) and supported ones on g-Al2O3 (0.042% Pd) showed ...

Metal catalysed reactions in ionic liquids

Paul Joseph Dyson

This book represents first non-edited book on the subject of metal catalysed reactions in ionic liquids and covers the literature from its origins until early 2005. Following a general introduction to the field of biphasic/mutliphasic catalysis, the synthe ...

Microwave plasma assisted preparation of Pd-nanoparticles with controlled dispersion on woven activated carbon fibres

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi

The low-pressure cold microwave (MW) plasma is shown as an efficient method to increase acidity of the ACF within less than 1 min treatment without affecting the fiber morphol. and strength. The ion-exchange capacity was 1.6 times higher compared to the no ...
