In this study, a green hydrothermal synthesis method was employed to produce Mn3O4 and Mn3O4/β-MnO2 nanostructures using EET-50, an organic extract obtained from a by-product of Carménère wine production. The biomolecules in EET-50...

This study investigates the influence of Cu addition on the nanostructural evolution and mechanical performance of a heavily drawn non-equiatomic CoCu1.71FeMnNi high-entropy alloy (HEA) wire. Through systematic microstructural and compositional analy...

This study investigates the mechanical and tribological behavior of a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)–silica nanocomposite coating over the temperature range extending from 24 °C to 120 °C. Nanoindentation tests revealed depth- and temperat...

With the intensification of the global energy crisis, green, low-carbon, and environmentally friendly biomass materials have become the focus of research. Among them, biomass-derived carbon dots (B-CDs), a novel class of sustainable zero-dimensional...

Soft nanocomposites were prepared by dispersing lipophilic carbon quantum dots (CQDs) in the liquid crystal compound 8CB. The quality of the dispersion was evaluated using fluorescence microscopy, while the microstructure of the samples was examined...

Overexpression of αvβ3 integrin is found in a diverse group of tumors originating from glial cells in the brain, making this transmembrane receptor a promising biomarker for molecular MRI diagnosis. In the study, we conjugated a monoclonal...

Selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) were synthesized from Na2SeO3 using Foeniculum vulgare (fennel) seed extract as mild sustainable reductant, coated with chitosan (Ch), and loaded with Paclitaxel (PTX). The PTX release from the Se@Ch–PTX NPs and...

Nano-sized particles of semiconducting lead sulfide and selenide and their 2D thin layers show high potential in applications, such as field-effect transistors, photodetectors, solar cells, and thermoelectric devices. The generation of PbS and PbSe n...

Food is fundamental to human survival, health, culture, and well-being. In response to the increasing demand for sustainable food preservation, chitosan (CS)-based electrospun nanofibers have emerged as promising materials due to their biodegradabili...

The exceptional sensing properties of hydrogen-saturated zigzag phosphorene nanoribbons (ZPNRs-H) for sulfur-containing gases, namely SO3, SO2, and H2S, were investigated using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory. The tot...
