Journal ArticleDOI
Flexible Tactile Sensing Based on Piezoresistive Composites: A Review
TL;DR: This work provides a review on the different type of composite materials, classified according to the conduction mechanism and analyzing the physics behind it, with a perspective overview on the most used filler types and polymeric matrices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sonophotocatalytic degradation mechanisms of Rhodamine B dye via radicals generation by micro- and nano-particles of ZnO
Carmine Lops,Andrea Ancona,Katia Di Cesare,Bianca Dumontel,Nadia Garino,Nadia Garino,Giancarlo Canavese,Simelys Hernández,Simelys Hernández,Valentina Alice Cauda +9 more
TL;DR: An environmental friendly sonophotocatalytic approach to efficiently treat polluted waters from industrial dyes exploiting ZnO micro- and nano-materials shows a great potential and a starting point to investigate further the efficient treatment of organic dyes in wastewater.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanoparticle-assisted ultrasound: A special focus on sonodynamic therapy against cancer
Giancarlo Canavese,Giancarlo Canavese,Andrea Ancona,Luisa Racca,Marta Canta,Bianca Dumontel,Federica Barbaresco,Tania Limongi,Valentina Alice Cauda,Valentina Alice Cauda +9 more
TL;DR: This review article focuses on therapeutically-active nanoparticles (NPs) when stimulated by ultrasound and the possible working mechanisms under debate of NPs-assisted sonodynamic treatments, showing that this very innovative and promising approach is however still at its infancy in the clinical cancer treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanoconfinement: an effective way to enhance PVDF piezoelectric properties
TL;DR: Current versus voltage (I-V) characteristics showed a consistent switching behavior of the ferroelectric polar domains, thus revealing the importance of the confined and oriented crystallization of the polymer in monodimensional nanoarchitectures.
Journal ArticleDOI
