Evolution of the alkyl-chain dynamics in monolayer-protected gold clusters

TL;DR: In this paper, a quasielastic neutron scattering technique was used to study the dynamics of the alkyl-chain dynamics in monolayer protected metal cluster systems of gold.
Journal ArticleDOI

Luminescent AgAu Alloy Clusters Derived from Ag Nanoparticles – Manifestations of Tunable AuI–CuI Metallophilic Interactions

TL;DR: In this paper, a tunable metallophilic interaction between monolayer-protected quantum clusters and a closed-shell metal ion was reported, and it was shown that the tunability of luminescence quenching is achieved by the systematic variation of the metheophilic interactions between the AuI ions of the alloy cluster and CuI ions formed by the reduction of CuII ions by the cluster core.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fabrication of a Waterborne Durable Superhydrophobic Material Functioning in Air and under Oil

TL;DR: In this paper, a stable waterborne super-hydrophobic material composed of clay particles is developed through a one-pot chemical modification in ambient conditions, forming durable micro-nano dual-structured coatings at room temperature over a range of substrates, without adhesive.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrospray deposition-induced ambient phase transition in copper sulphide nanostructures

TL;DR: In this article, a method for synthesizing different phases of copper sulphide nanostructures using electrospray deposition (ESD) of molecular sulphur in the form of droplets on metallic copper surfaces under ambient conditions was introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanocellulose-Reinforced Organo-Inorganic Nanocomposite for Synergistic and Affordable Defluoridation of Water and an Evaluation of Its Sustainability Metrics

TL;DR: In this paper, a cellulose nanofiber-polyaniline (PANI)-templated ferrihydrite nanocomposite synthesized by a green one-pot process where the iron precursor not only acts as an oxidant for the polymerization of aniline to give emaraldine base-emaraldines salt (EB-ES) form of PANI but also forms 2-line ferri hydrite (FeOOH) nanoparticles in situ.
