Synthesis and characteristics study of TiO2 nanowires and nanoflowers on FTO/glass and glass substrates via hydrothermal technique

Synthesis and Characterization of Fe-TiO2 Nanomaterial: Performance Evaluation for RB5 Decolorization and In Vitro Antibacterial Studies

“…However, the effect of metal doping on photocatalytic activity of the synthesized nanomaterial depends on various factors including synthesis method, calcination temperature and doping level [ 16 , 17 ]. Different synthesis procedures have been adopted for synthesis of iron doped TiO 2 , including hydrothermal [ 18 ], solvothermal, wet impregnation [ 19 ], co-precipitation [ 20 , 21 ] and sol gel method [ 22 , 23 ]. Sol gel method is regarded as the most employed popular method to control the particle size and crystallinity [ 21 ].…”

Intracellular NO Delivery by Si-Based Ni Composite Nanoflowers

“…The development of nanotechnology has led to revolutionary achievements in diagnosis, therapy, catalysts, sensors, and electronic devices. − Wrapped nanoparticles (NPs) could be developed into novel structures, such as core–shell, yolk–shell, and hollow materials, with large surface areas absorbing to substrates or storing molecules. − Recent studies have revealed that core–shell nanocomposites show advantageous characteristics like a high theoretical specific surface area ( S BET ), easy size tuning, and excellent formability into various shapes. − Particle size and shape are important factors that determine the applicability of NPs. − Among the various types of core–shell NPs available today, nanoflowers have received wide attention due to their variety of 3D structures and large surface area. , Nanoflower-like core–shell structures could be effectively employed in drug delivery, cell imaging, biosensors, and other biomedical applications because their size and shape can easily be controlled. − , Various metal oxide nanoflowers, such as CuO, TiO 2 , ZnO, NiO, and B i2 MoO 6 , have been actively studied to detect industrially produced volatile organic compounds and toxic gases because of their high selectivity. − NiO nanoflowers present good responses toward NO 2 , which is derived from their flower-like structure, mesoporous pores, and large surface area. Such nanoflowers can also exhibit excellent responses to NO 2 even at very low concentrations. , A sensor composed of Bi 2 MoO 6 demonstrated good sensitivity toward NO, which rapidly and linearly increased with increasing NO concentration.…”
