Glassy carbon (GC) is the most commonly used carbon-based electrode in the analytical laboratory. Because of the high background current and low electrode response, modification of this electrode can be done by various ...

Nanofluids are colloidal suspension of nanoparticles in a base fluid and have superior thermal properties in comparison to their base fluids. ...

Nanocomposites of multi-walled carbon nanotubes and titanium dioxide (MWCNT/TiO2) were synthesized by the sol-gel method. Regarding hydrophobicity of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), benzyl alcohol was used as the linking agent ...

Nanotechnology involves the ability to see and control individual atoms and molecules which are about 100 nanometer or smaller. One of the major tools used in this field is atomic force microscopy which uses a wealth of ...

To date, the effects of nanoparticles on woody plants remain unaddressed. This study reveals some of the physiological and biochemical effects of SiO2 nanoparticles on wild pear seedlings. The seedlings were irrigated with ...

In this report, magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized via coprecipitation of Fe2+ and Fe3+ with ammonium hydroxide, and the surface of synthesized nanoparticles was organically functionalized by commercially ...

In this paper, the effects of adding nanoparticles including Tio2 to a fluid media for purpose of free convection heat transfer improvement were analyzed. The free convection was assumed to be in laminar flow regime and ...

The aim of this paper is to enhance thermal performance of a microchannel heat sink by using nanoencapsulated phase change material (NEPCM) slurry as a cooling fluid instead of pure fluid. A threedimensional model of a ...
