TL;DR: It is shown that the nanoprotrusions on the surfaces of both black silicon and D. bipunctata wings form hierarchical structures through the formation of clusters of adjacent nanoproTrusions, which generate a mechanical bactericidal effect, independent of chemical composition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption and coprecipitation of single heavy metal ions onto the hydrated oxides of iron and chromium
Journal ArticleDOI
Transformation and degradation of the disazo dye Chicago Sky Blue by a purified laccase from Pycnoporus cinnabarinus.
TL;DR: The degradation of the disazo dye Chicago Sky Blue 6B by a purified laccase from Pycnoporus cinnabarinus was investigated and the rate at which the dye was transformed by purified lAccase was shown to increase with increasing concentrations of the enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of surfactant adsorption on the surface characterisation of Australian coals
TL;DR: In this article, the surface hydrophobicity of three Australian coals varying widely in coal type (Collie, Wongawilli and Norwich Park) has been modified by adsorption of three surfactants (sodium dodecyl sulphate, cetyl trimethylammonium bromide and Teric G12A8).
Journal ArticleDOI
Dielectric enhancement in polymer-nanoparticle composites through interphase polarizability
TL;DR: In this paper, a composite dielectric constant (ecomposite) that increased monotonically with increasing oxide content well above the value predicted by Maxwell's rule was measured on polyimide-oxide nanoparticle composite thin films.
