The synthetic procedures for preparation of free-standing and attached to polymer support surface-modified TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) with absorption extended into the visible spectral region due charge transfer complex formation were developed. one-step synthesis colloids consisting NPs is based on reaction between titanium(IV) isopropoxide (TTIP) lauryl galatte in nonprotic organic solvents (tetrahydrofuran, xylol, chloroform). poly(GMA-co-EGDMA) copolymer decorated was obtained two steps....
Nanoparticles (NPs), a distinct class of particles ranging in size from 1 to 100 nm, are one the most promising technologies 21st century, and titanium dioxide NPs (TiO2 NPs) among widely produced used globally. The increased application TiO2 raises concerns regarding their global safety risks exposure. Many animal studies have reported accumulation female reproductive organs; however, evidence resultant toxicity remains ambiguous. Since surface area chemical modifications can significantly...
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) lattices with vacancy defects could enable effective CO 2 electroreduction into valuable products: methanol and methane.
Interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complexes between wide-band-gap metal oxides and small colorless organic molecules have promising use in a variety of applications. The possibility to control optical properties alignment energy levels by proper combination inorganic parts ICT is the main advantage such materials. We used vacuum-ultraviolet electron imaging photoelectron spectroscopy (VUV PES) determine ionization potentials isolated TiO2 nanoparticles surface-modified with salicylic acid...

Abstract Nanocomposites consisted of different quantities silver (Ag) nanoparticles incorporated in a polystyrene (PS) matrix have been prepared by solution mixing method. Transmission electron microscopy was applied to determine the size distribution Ag nanoparticles, while morphology fractured surfaces pure PS and Ag/PS nanocomposites examined scanning microscopy. Absorption spectra were compared with theoretically calculated based on Maxwell‐Garnett effective medium theory. The influence...
Poly(glycidyl methacrylate‐ co ‐ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) (poly(GMA‐ ‐EGDMA) macroporous copolymer decorated with silver nanoparticles was prepared by a modification of poly(GMA‐ in the reaction arginine, and consequent reduction ions amino groups. The mercury intrusion porosimetry, transmission electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, UV–vis reflection spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission measurements were used to characterize obtained composite. coordination...
The rod-like Ag2CO3 particles (2-4 × 0.3-0.6 μm, length diameter) were synthesized in water by the precipitation reaction between AgNO3 and NaHCO3 presence of polyvinylpyrrolidone. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed co-existence monoclinic hexagonal phases Ag2CO3, without impurities. band gap energy was found to be 1.4 eV from diffuse reflectance spectra. Photocatalytic ability tested using degradation organic dye methylene blue over wide range concentrations, as well under long run working...
Size‐dependent antimicrobial ability of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) supported by amino‐functionalized poly(glycidyl methacrylate‐ co ‐ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) (poly(GMA‐ ‐EGDMA)) macroporous copolymer was tested against Gram‐negative bacteria Escherichia coli . Inorganic/organic hybrids with distinctly different average sizes Ag NPs (6.6 and 12.1 nm) were prepared functionalization poly(GMA‐ ‐EGDMA) either 1,8‐diaminooctane or ammonia, consequent reduction ions amino groups. The...
A promising way to improve the performance of luminescent materials is combine them with noble metal nanoparticles. Herein, a set silver/europium-doped lanthanum orthophosphate (Ag/La0.95Eu0.05PO4) nanostructures different concentrations silver nanoparticles were prepared and investigated. The presented overlap between strongest europium (Eu3+) excitation line broad nanoparticle surface plasmon resonance makes combination prospective for coupling. X-ray powder diffraction confirmed...
The genotoxic and antigenotoxic behavior of the interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex between nano-sized TiO2 particles caffeic acid (CA) was studied in vitro experiments. formation ICT is indicated by appearance absorption visible-spectral range. continual variations method bridging coordination ligand, acid, surface Ti atoms, while stability constant found to be 1.5?103 mol-1 L. An agreement experimental data theoretical results, based on density functional theory, found. its...
The aim of this paper is to investigate and compare the changes in surface plasmon resonance (SPR) silver (Ag) hydrosol organosols obtained by experimental theoretical approaches. Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) 5 ? 1.5 nm diameter were prepared water reduction nitrate with sodium borohydride. Nanoparticles subsequently transferred into different organic solvents (chloroform, hexane, toluene, 1,2-dichlorobenzene) using oleylamine as a transfer agent. These chosen because differences their...
