dicarboxybenzene metal–organic framework (UiO-66-NH 2) porous nanofiber membranes …

Electrospinning of a heterogeneous solution is difficult to continue because the required
process parameters are different for multiple phases. In this study, nanofibrous mats were …

Insect cuticles that are mainly made of chitin, chitosan and proteins provide insects with
rigid, stretchable and robust skins to defend harsh external environment. The insect cuticle …

Chitosan (CS) aerogels are highly porous (~ 99%), exhibit ultralow density, and are
excellent sorbents for removing ionic pollutants and oils/organic solvents from water. Their …

Antibiotics in water are upcoming hazard that many are avoiding. Traditional adsorbents are
incompetent in removing this class of contaminants. Thus, we aimed to eliminate most …
