The production of graphene nanosheets decorated with silver nanoparticles for use in transparent, conductive films

In situ thermolysis of Pt-carbonyl complex to form supported clean Pt nanoclusters with enhanced catalytic performance

“…3b shows the high-resolution spectrum of C 1s, where four different carbon bonding states can be observed. The peak at 284.6 eV was ascribed to the C-C bond, whereas the signals at~286.4, 287.8, and 289.0 eV were attributed to the C-OH, C=O, and O-C=O configurations, respectively [33]. Compared to the typical high-level oxidation state in GO, the product exhibited a sharp decrease in intensity, showing a significant loss of oxygen after thermal treatment.…”

Low Temperature Direct Bonding between PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) and Pt via Vapor-Assisted Vacuum Ultraviolet Surface Modification

“…4b-4f show the C 1s spectra of PEEK outer surfaces modified at water vapor volumes of 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, and 90%, respectively. The untreated PEEK surface contained C x H y (284.8 eV, aromatic [25][26][27][28]), C-O (286.6 eV, hydroxyl [25][26][27][28]), and C=O (287.7 eV, carbonyl [25][26][27][28]). After the surface modifications, as shown in Figs.…”

“…After the surface modifications, as shown in Figs. 4b and 4c, aliphatic C-C peaks with an energy gap of 0.8 ± 0.1 eV appeared [25][26][27][28]. These aliphatic bonds were formed from low-molecular-weight materials [28,29], which were formed from the PEEK surface by VUV irradiation.…”

Deposition of Copper Nanoparticles on 2D Graphene NanoPlatelets via Cementation Process

“…Studies have used graphene oxide (GO) or graphene nanosheets (GNS) as a precursor in glycol reducing conditions as well as propanol-2 conditions, which is less used. Metallic NPs precipitated and deposited onto GO or GNS using this method include Au, Ag, Pt, Pd [44][45][46][47][48].…”

“…Investigations have used these reducers either separately or in conjunction with ethylene glycol in order to obtain Au, Ag, Cu and Pt NPs on top of rGO and GNS surfaces [46,49,50].…”
