Owing to their intrinsic properties of wide availability, low cost, portability, environmental
friendliness and degradability, paper and paper-based materials are receiving increasing …

The separation of oceanic spilled oils and industrial oily wastewaters becomes a great
challenge, and it is highly desirable to develop efficient materials for oil/water separation. As …

In response to the industry's difficulty in properly separating oily wastewater discharge,
researchers are investigating enhanced oil/water separation materials. In this work, a cost …

Paper-based materials have been used in every aspect of social life. However, the current
paper-based materials face unprecedented challenges, such as limited lifespan and poor …

We present a novel virtual substrate method for large metal oxide nanosheets synthesis.
Ashless filter paper was used as the novel virtual substrate and combustive oxidation was …

The success of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) depends on the quality of
deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) templates. This study developed a cost-effective and eco …

In this study, we have prepared a conductive paint by mixing graphite powder, fumed SiO 2
particles, NaOH and water in a suitable ratio. The paint was coated on the surface of low …

Copper hydroxide is a broad-spectrum copper fungicide, which is often used to control crop
fungal and bacterial diseases. In addition to controlling targeted pathogens, copper …

Herein, the fabrication of cellulose acetate (CA) silica-based nanocomposite membranes via
the dry-wet phase inversion procedure for water desalination was investigated. The modified …

In this paper, a simple, bottom up, bioinspired technique is proposed for the synthesis of
highly stable colloids of silica supported spherical silver nanoparticles (SiO 2@ Ag) that act …
