The pursuit of low-cost, facilely synthesized, and highly efficient noble metal-free electrocatalysts for water splitting has gained momentum. In this context, two-dimensional (2D) MXenes have emerged as promising electrocatalyst materials. study, we report an approach to improve the overall reactivity Ti3C2 MXene by modifying synthesis Ti3AlC2 MAX phase. phase was synthesized through conventional heat treatment under Ar atmosphere at 1400 °C 1 min, employing a carefully selected...

In the field of biochemistry and biosensing, passivation carbon dots using nitrogen dopants has attracted great attention, as this can control their photoluminescence (PL) properties quantum yield. To date, in fabrication a sensing probe, impact chemical composition passivating molecule remained unexplored. work, we chose series different nitrogen-rich precursors (such urea, thiourea, cysteine, glycine) ascorbic acid to synthesize nitrogen-doped (NCDs). A significant change surface states...

Abstract The natural antioxidant (Silybin), with different concentrations, is introduced in Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) and impact on thermal stability observed. For this, thermograms are recorded at 5 ℃/min heating rate temperature region 50–600 ℃ through Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) technique. model fitting (Coats Redfern) kinetic approach adopted to determine activation energy of each identify optimum silybin concentration. UHMWPE, concentration, further...

<title>Abstract</title> Thermal decomposition behavior of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is studied through thermogravimetric analysis technique. Thermograms are recorded at four different heating rates (2.5, 5, 10, 15 and 20 ℃/min) in nitrogen environment. These thermograms revealed that the thermal UHMWPE occurred three stages. Among these stages, second stage highly complex. Therefore, deconvoluted into two peaks by using bi-Gaussian asymmetric function. Kinetic...

Carbon dots (C-dots) are known for their exceptional fluorescence properties, particularly when they form aggregates influenced by solvent characteristics. Herein, we synthesize intrinsic dual emissive C-dots (DC-dots) using monosaccharide via microwave technique. A judicious combination of acids resulted in the formation DC-dots. Under a UV lamp, these DC-dots emit green and yellow colors with an average lifetime 0.14 0.47 ns, respectively. Transmission electron microscopy results confirmed...
