“…In the hydrothermal/solvothermal method, the temperature is relatively high, but lower than the temperature employed in the methods explained above. In these methods, the crystallization process occurs directly in the solution, which excludes the calcination step and contributes to the growth of particles with very well-controlled morphology [82].…”

The use of perovskite-based materials and their derivatives can have an important role in the heterogeneous catalytic field based on photochemical processes. Photochemical reactions have a great potential to solve environmental damage issues. The presence of precious metals in the perovskite structure (i.e., Ag, Au, or Pt) may improve its efficiency significantly. The precious metal may comprise the perovskite lattice as well as form a heterostructure with it. The efficiency of catalytic materials is directly related to processing conditions. Based on this, this review will address the use of perovskite materials combined with precious metal as well as their processing methods for the use in catalyzed reactions.

Nanocomposite material proves to be the best candidate to match today's technological need as fascinating properties can be achieved by combining two or more nanomaterials. Among various nanomaterials, graphene is able to stand out far ahead of all others because of its novel structure and exclusive characteristics. In particular, graphene-metal nanocomposites have attracted enormous interest for their prospective use in various fields, including electronics, electrical and energy-related areas. However, for the utmost use of potential of graphene, it has to be homogenously embedded into metal matrices. Thus, appropriate synthesis route is decisive to obtain graphene-metal nanocomposites with desired properties. This chapter will summarize the different synthesis routes of high-quality graphene-metal nanocomposites along with their current developments. one is the called matrix or binder which encloses and binds together fragments or fibres of the other material, termed as reinforcement. If one of the constituent materials of the composite is of nanometer dimension then the composite is called nanocomposite 1 and in most of the cases the nanomaterial are used as reinforcement material. Since the advent of nanomaterial several of them is used to synthesise nanocomposite, as nanomaterial possesses remarkable improvement in their properties compared to their bulk counterpart 2 . The inclusion of nanomaterial as the reinforcement in the parent matrix also significantly enhances the properties of the resulting nanocomposite 3 . Among the different nanomaterials graphene has emerged as one of the most prospective nanomaterials due to the unique combination of its exotic properties 4 . Based on the binder material graphene nanocomposite can be categorized as graphene metal/metal oxide nanocomposite 5 , graphene ceramic nanocomposite 6 , graphene semiconductor nanocomposite 7 and graphene polymer nanocomposite 8 . Among various nanocomposites, graphene-metal/metal oxide composites have attracted considerable attention because of their potential applications in energy 9 and health 10 -related areas.

“…The crystal growth is normally performed in an apparatus consisting of a steel pressure vessel called an autoclave. Hydrothermal synthesis involves water acting both as a catalyst and occasionally as a component of solid phases during synthesis at elevated temperature and pressure [71]. Figure 9 shows some examples of hydrothermal reduction for the preparation of NiCu MNPs.…”

The Potential Biomedical Application of NiCu Magnetic Nanoparticles

Magnetic nanoparticles became increasingly interesting in recent years as a result of their tailorable size-dependent properties, which enable their use in a wide range of applications. One of their emerging applications is biomedicine; in particular, bimetallic nickel/copper magnetic nanoparticles (NiCu MNPs) are gaining momentum as a consequence of their unique properties that are suitable for biomedicine. These characteristics include stability in various chemical environments, proven biocompatibility with various cell types, and tunable magnetic properties that can be adjusted by changing synthesis parameters. Despite the obvious potential of NiCu MNPs for biomedical applications, the general interest in their use for this purpose is rather low. Nevertheless, the steadily increasing annual number of related papers shows that increasingly more researchers in the biomedical field are studying this interesting formulation. As with other MNPs, NiCu-based formulations were examined for their application in magnetic hyperthermia (MH) as one of their main potential uses in clinics. MH is a treatment method in which cancer tissue is selectively heated through the localization of MNPs at the target site in an alternating magnetic field (AMF). This heating destroys cancer cells only since they are less equipped to withstand temperatures above 43 °C, whereas this temperature is not critical for healthy tissue. Superparamagnetic particles (e.g., NiCu MNPs) generate heat by relaxation losses under an AMF. In addition to MH in cancer treatment, which might be their most beneficial potential use in biomedicine, the properties of NiCu MNPs can be leveraged for several other applications, such as controlled drug delivery and prolonged localization at a desired target site in the body. After a short introduction that covers the general properties of NiCu MNPs, this review explores different synthesis methods, along with their main advantages and disadvantages, potential surface modification approaches, and their potential in biomedical applications, such as MH, multimodal cancer therapy, MH implants, antibacterial activity, and dentistry.
