Thermodynamic Assessments of the Sc-M (M: Cr, Gd, Mo, W and Zr) Systems

Preparation and characterization of Fe3O4/gallic acid/graphene oxide magnetic nanocomposites as highly efficient Fenton catalysts

“…17 However, Fe 3 O 4 MNPs are apt to aggregate, resulting in reduction of surface/volume ratio and dispersion stability in aqueous solution. 18 Moreover, the H 2 O 2 -activating ability of Fe 3 O 4 MNPs is generally not strong, and thus the catalytic degradation rate of target substances is low. It is a big challenge to improve the catalytic performance of Fe 3 O 4 MNPs.…”

“…18 were evaluated based on the degradation of MB (0.1 mM) with H 2 O 2 (160 mM) at an initial pH of 6.0 (Fig. 4a) Fig.…”

Phthalocyanine‐Conjugated Upconversion NaYF4:Yb3+/Er3+@SiO2 Nanospheres for NIR‐Triggered Photodynamic Therapy in a Tumor Mouse Model

“…Recently,u pconversion nanomaterials have shown great promise for av ariety of applications ranging from solar energy conversion [1,2] and security areas [3] and even to biomedicine [4] for nanothermometry, [5] drug delivery, [6] early-stage in vivo bioimaging, [7,8] andt reatment of canceru sing photothermal [9] and photodynamic therapy (PDT). [10,11] PDT is an alternative to conventional treatments,s uch as surgery,c hemotherapy,a nd radiotherapy,d ue to its low toxicity andm inimal side effects on normalcells.…”

Thermodynamic Stability of Nano-grained Alloys Against Grain Coarsening and Precipitation of Macroscopic Phases

“…[127][128][129][130] The interaction energies for the binary systems are taken from measured enthalpies of mixing [131,132] and from Calpad assessments. [133][134][135][136][137][138][139][140][141][142][143][144][145][146][147][148][149][150] The data from the Miedema model [151] were also taken into account, but not preferred. In absence of Calphad-type assessments the interaction energies were estimated from the phase diagrams.…”
