Abstract:
This invention relates to a hybrid component comprising at least one nanoparticle of inorganic layered compound (in the form of fullerene-like structure or nanotube), and at least one metal nanoparticle, uses thereof as a catalyst, (e.g. photocatalysis) and processes for its preparation.
Abstract:
A new approach is presented to reduce encrustation of catheters by the application of nanoparticles. It is demonstrated that the negatively surface charged nanoparticles produce coating films comprised of long-range domains in which the nanoparticles are self-assembled into a mosaic-like order, showing a relatively small tendency to agglomerate.
Abstract:
The invention generally concerns the fabrication of sodium or magnesium ion batteries comprising inorganic fullerene like nanoparticles and nanotubes.
Abstract:
This invention is directed to nanocomposite comprising biodegradable polymers and inorganic nanoparticles or nanotubes, methods of preparation and uses thereof.
