Monodispersed Colloidal Spheres: Old Materials with New Applications
TL;DR: An overview of current research activities that center on monodispersed colloidal spheres whose diameter falls anywhere in the range of 10 nm to 1 μm can be found in this paper.
Patent
Biomedical patches with aligned fibers
TL;DR: A structure of aligned (e.g., radially and/or polygonally aligned) fibers, and systems and methods for producing and using the same can be found in this article.
Patent
Palladium-platinum nanostructures and methods for their preparation
TL;DR: Palladium-seeded, dendritic platinum nanostructures that are useful as electrocatalysts and methods for preparing such nanostructure are discussed in this article, where they are incorporated into fuel cell electrodes including fuel cells that include a proton exchange membrane (PEM).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, waste tires were converted to hard carbon, then functionalized with catalytically active -SO3H groups on the surface through an environmentally benign process that involved the sequential treatment with L-cysteine, dithiothreitol, and H2O2.
Journal ArticleDOI
How to Remove the Capping Agent from Pd Nanocubes without Destructing Their Surface Structure for the Maximization of Catalytic Activity
TL;DR: A robust method for effectively removing the chemisorbed Br- ions, a capping agent, from the surface of Pd nanocubes to maximize their catalytic activity is reported.
