Synthesis and Characterization of Pd@MxCu1-x (M=Au, Pd, and Pt) Nanocages with Porous Walls and a Yolk-Shell Structure through Galvanic Replacement Reactions

TL;DR: This paper describes the synthesis of Pd@M(x)Cu(1-x) (M = Au, Pd, and Pt) nanocages with a yolk-shell structure through galvanic replacement reactions that involve PD@Cu core-shell nanocubes as sacrificial templates and ethylene glycol as the solvent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of CaO 2 Nanocrystals and Their Spherical Aggregates with Uniform Sizes for Use as a Biodegradable Bacteriostatic Agent.

TL;DR: A new route to the facile synthesis of uniform CaO2 nanocrystals and their spherical aggregates with uniform, controllable sizes is reported and offers a promising bacteriostatic agent with biodegradability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strong and tough mineralized PLGA nanofibers for tendon-to-bone scaffolds.

TL;DR: A promising nanofibrous polymer-hydroxyapatite system, in which, a continuous fibrous network must function as a scaffold for both mineralized and unmineralized tissues, is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hybrid nanomaterials: Not just a pretty flower

TL;DR: Combining copper(II) phosphate and proteins leads to the formation of hybrid nanostructures that are shaped like flowers and have enhanced catalytic activity and stability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Controlled Synthesis of Nanosized Palladium icosahedra and Their Catalytic Activity towards Formic‐Acid Oxidation

TL;DR: The studies indicate that the formation of Pd nanocrystals with an icosahedral shape was very sensitive to the reaction kinetics and thus control the twin structure and shape of the resultant nanocrystal.
