Millimeter-sized, free-standing gold structures were created with three levels of multiscale porosity. First, macro- and microporosity, which are useful for mass and heat transport within the structure, are formed within an Ag-19 at.% Au alloy by salt powder replication during powder densification and by entrapped gas expansion during sintering, respectively. Nanoporosity, which provides high surface area, is then produced by silver dealloying of these Ag-19 at.% Au foams. The resulting hierarchical gold structures are annealed at 100-800 °C, thus coarsening the ligaments, increasing relative density, and healing cracks produced during dealloying. The first effect weakens the structure, while the other two make it stronger. A bulk Au sample with hierarchical porosity annealed at 600 °C shows good compressive ductility and a strength in agreement with models. 相似文献

We report here on the application of Surface Element Integration (SEI) to evaluate the potential energy of interactions between
alkane-modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and tetraoctylammonium bromide (TOAB) stabilised gold nanoparticles.
The interacting objects are treated as cylinders and spheres, respectively, with corresponding alkyl chains extending perpendicularly
from their surfaces. In such case the widely used Derjaguin approximation is invalid. Thus SEI was used to calculate the van
der Waals, osmotic and elastic interactions. The results show that it is possible to control the self-assembly process of
the gold nanoparticles at the surface of modified MWCNT in terms of size- and type-selectivity. 相似文献

The sensitive determination of cyanide in wastewaters using modified GC electrode with silver hexacyanoferrate nanoparticles (SHFNPs) immobilized on multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) was reported. The immobilization of SHFNPs on MWCNT was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The TEM image showed that the SHFNPs retained the spherical morphology after immobilized on MWCNT. The size of SHFNPs was examined around 27 nm. The GC/MWCNT-SHFNPs was used for the determination of cyanide in borax buffer (BB) solution (pH 8.0). Using square wave voltammetry, the current response of cyanide increases linearly while increasing its concentration from 40.0 nM to 150.0 μM and a detection limit was found to be 8.3 nM (S/N=3). The present modified electrode was also successfully used for the determination of 5.0 μM cyanide in the presence of common contaminants at levels presenting in industrial wastewaters. The practical application of the present modified electrode was demonstrated by measuring the concentration of cyanide in industrial wastewater samples. Moreover, the studied sensor exhibited high sensitivity, good reproducibility and long-term stability. 相似文献

A sensor based on gold nanoparticle/single-walled carbon nanotube film on the surface of glassy carbon electrode is prepared. Electrochemical behavior of adrenaline hydrochloride (AH) on the surface of gold nanoparticle/single-walled carbon nanotube modified glassy carbon electrode is investigated. A simple, sensitive, and inexpensive method for determination of AH is proposed. The oxidation peak currents is proportional to adrenaline hydrochloride concentrations in the range of 0.20 mg L? 1 to 1.80 mg L? 1 in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution of pH 7.3, the detection limit for AH is 0.06 mg L? 1, and the recoveries are in the range from 100.0 to 110.0% with RSD of 1.2–1.9% (n = 6). 相似文献

Preparation, characterization and photocatalytic properties of CdS nanoparticles dotted on the surface of carbon nanotubes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanoparticles dotted on the surface of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have been synthesized by the polyol method. The as-prepared materials were characterized by x-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller adsorption analysis. The results indicate that CdS nanoparticles with diameter of 5-8?nm are thickly and uniformly coated on the surface of the MWCNTs. The photodegradation of azo dye using these materials was evaluated by the degradation of Brilliant Red X-3B under visible light. The coated nanotubes show higher photocatalytic activity than both CdS alone and a CdS/activated carbon sample; in addition, there is an optimum content of MWCNTs. The presence of MWCNTs can also hamper the photocorrosion of CdS. The mechanism for the enhancement of MWCNTs on the adsorption and photocatalytic property of CdS is investigated for the first time. 相似文献

Carbon fibers are widely used as reinforcements in composite materials because of their high specific strength and modulus. Today, a number of ultrahigh strength polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based (more than 6?GPa), and ultrahigh modulus pitch-based (more than 900?GPa) carbon fibers have been commercially available. In contrast, carbon nanotube (CNT) with the extremely high tensile strength have attracted attention as reinforcements. An interesting technique to modify the carbon fiber is CNT grafting on the carbon fiber surface. CNT-grafted carbon fibers offer the opportunity to add the potential benefits of nanoscale reinforcement to well-established fibrous composites to create micro-nano multiscale hybrid composites. In the present study, the tensile properties of CNT grown on T1000GB PAN- and K13D pitch-based carbon fibers have been investigated. Single filament tensile test at gauge lengths of 1, 5, and 25?mm were conducted. The effect of gauge length on tensile strength and Weibull modulus of CNT-grafted PAN- and pitch-based carbon fibers were evaluated. It was found that grafting of CNT improves the tensile strength and Weibull modulus of PAN- and pitch-based carbon fibers with longer gauge length (≥5?mm). The results also clearly show that for CNT-grafted and as-received PAN- and pitch-based carbon fibers, there is a linear relation between the Weibull modulus and the average tensile strength on log–log scale. 相似文献

It was established that partial combustion of carbon constituting the walls of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) catalyzed
by previously deposited CaCO3 nanoparticles converts parallel graphene layers in a multiwall structure to aggregates formed by nano-onions with a diameter
of 5–12 nm. The areas with positive curvature of graphene layers on the external surface of air-etched MWCNTs played the role
of docking stations for nickel nanoparticles inserted by sonochemical deposition after removal of the CaCO3. The nickel nanoparticles were located exclusively at the tops of the onions. Formation of nanoscale curvature at the MWCNT
support surfaces decreased the average size of Ni nanocrystals at similar loading of 50–60 wt% from 8 to 2 nm. Partial catalytic
combustion did not change the concentration of surface carbonyl groups measured by titration, which attributes the observed
phenomena directly to the corrugation of the MWCNT surfaces. The catalytic tests revealed a significant increase of catalytic
activity of supported Ni catalyst due to corrugating of the external surface of the MWCNT support. After oxidative etching
of the MWCNTs, the rate of chloroacetophenone hydrogenation measured with a Ni–MWCNT catalyst increased by a factor of 2 without
change in selectivity yielding chlorophenylethanol as the main product. 相似文献

The effect of the total water content on the persistence and rate of direct heterogeneous electron transfer between the imidazole complex of microperoxidase-11 (im-MP-11) and naked gold, platinum, and glassy carbon (GC) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solutions containing 0.1 M tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate was investigated using cyclic voltammetry. Electron transfer between im-MP-11 and Au, Pt, and GC has been found to be persistent for more than 1 h and at least quasi-reversible [k(s)' = (8.7 ± 0.1) × 10(-4) cm/s (Au), k(s)' = (7.2 ± 1.3) × 10(-4) cm/s (Pt), and k(s)' = (5.7 ± 1.0) × 10(-4) cm/s (GC)] in dimethyl sulfoxide containing an absolute water content between 0.1 and 1.8%. The heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant is independent of the total water content of the DMSO solution when between 0.1 and 1.8% water is present. 相似文献

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most frequent type of human genetic variation. Recent work has shown that it is possible to directly analyze SNPs in unamplified human genomic DNA samples using the surface-invasive cleavage reaction followed by rolling circle amplification (RCA) labeling of the cleavage products. The individual RCA amplicon molecules were counted on the surface using fluorescence microscopy. Two principal limitations of such single-molecule counting are the variability in the amplicon size, which results in a large variation in fluorescence signal intensity from the dye-labeled DNA molecules, and a high level of background fluorescence. It is shown here that an excellent alternative to RCA labeling is tagging with gold nanoparticles followed by imaging with a scanning electron microscope. Gold nanoparticles have a uniform diameter (15 +/- 0.5 nm) and provide excellent contrast against the background of the silicon substrate employed. Individual gold nanoparticles are readily counted using publicly available software. The results demonstrate that the labeling efficiency is improved by as much as approximately 15-fold, and the signal-to-noise ratio is improved by approximately 4-fold. Detection of individual cleaved DNA molecules following surface-invasive cleavage was linear and quantitative over 3 orders of magnitude in amount of target DNA (10(-18)-10(-15) mol). 相似文献

Nanocomposites of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) containing various multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) contents were prepared using melt mixing. Several techniques were employed to study the influence of the MWCNT addition on the thermal, mechanical, electrical and dielectric properties of the PMMA matrix. The electrical percolation threshold (pc) was found to be 0.5 vol.% by performing AC and DC conductivity measurements. Significantly high conductivity levels (σdc) were achieved: σdc exceeds 10−2 S/cm already at 1.1 vol.%, the criterion for EMI shielding (σdc > 10−1 S/cm) is fulfilled at 2.9 vol.%, and the highest loaded sample (5.2 vol.%) gave a maximum value of 0.5 S/cm. Dielectric relaxation spectroscopy measurements in broad frequency (10−1−106 Hz) and temperature ranges (−150 to 170 °C) indicated weak polymer-filler interactions, in consistency with differential scanning calorimetry and dynamic-mechanical analysis findings. Weak polymer-filler interactions and absence of crystallinity facilitate the achievement of high conductivity levels in the nanocomposites. 相似文献

Contrast agents are often used to enhance the contrast of X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging of tumors to improve diagnostic accuracy. However, because the iodine-based contrast agents currently used in hospitals are of low molecular weight, the agent is rapidly excreted from the kidney or moves to extravascular tissues through the capillary vessels, depending on its concentration gradient. This leads to nonspecific enhancement of contrast images for tissues. Here, we created gold (Au) nanoparticles as a new contrast agent to specifically image tumors with CT using an enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. Au has a higher X-ray absorption coefficient than does iodine. Au nanoparticles were supported with polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains on their surface to increase the blood retention and were conjugated with a cancer-specific antibody via terminal PEG chains. The developed Au nanoparticles were injected into tumor-bearing mice, and the distribution of Au was examined with CT imaging, transmission electron microscopy, and elemental analysis using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. The results show that specific localization of the developed Au nanoparticles in the tumor is affected by a slight difference in particle size and enhanced by the conjugation of a specific antibody against the tumor. 相似文献

In the present study, phytochemicals-mediated rapid, stable and eco-friendly synthesis of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) using Pterocarpus santalinus L. (Red Sanders) bark extract is reported. The powerful characteristics of different phytochemicals present in P. santalinus L. bark prompted us to determine their efficacy in the bio-reduction of gold chloride trihydrate to the corresponding GNPs. The biosynthesis of GNPs was investigated at the physiological condition (pH?=?7.4). The synthesized GNPs were characterized by UV–visible spectroscopy by measuring the peak in the range of 400–700?nm. The GNPs synthesized at physiological conditions revealed surface plasmon resonance (SPR) at 545?nm. The crystalline nature of GNPs was confirmed by using x-ray diffraction (XRD), and the functional groups adhered on the surface of the GNPs were analyzed by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) analysis showed spherical GNPs in the size range of 13–26?nm. The synthesized GNPs exhibited antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. 相似文献

This study investigates the dielectric, magnetic, and microwave absorbing properties of Sm2O3-filled multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) synthesized by wet chemical method. The complex permittivity and permeability were measured at a microwave frequency range of 2-18 GHz. Sm2O3 nanoparticles encapsulated in the cavities enhance the magnetic loss of MWCNTs. The calculated results indicate that the bandwith of absorbing peak of the modified MWCNTs is much broader than that of unfilled MWCNTs. The maximum reflectivity (R) is about − 12.22 dB at 13.40 GHz and corresponding bandwidth below − 5 dB is more than 5.11 GHz. With the increase of thickness, the peak of R shifts to lower frequency, and multiple absorbing peaks appear, which helps to broaden microwave absorbing bandwidth. 相似文献

This paper compares different electrochemical surface modification techniques with special attention to the immobilization of cobalt(II) tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine tetrasodium salt (Co(II)TSPc) on gold electrodes. Electrochemical and synchrotron radiation X-ray fluorescence (SR-XRF) microbeam analysis were performed in order to compare the amount of adsorbed CoTSPc onto the gold electrode and to determine the level of uniformity of the deposited layer. The nondestructive, quantitative characterization of CoTSPc deposition on gold electrodes by means of scanning SR-XRF on the microscopic scale has never been described before. The described methodology can be in general used for thin-film characterization. Depending on the degree of dimerization of the CoTSPc molecules, different electrochemical behavior is observed. 相似文献

Molecularly imprinted Au nanoparticles (NPs) composites are generated on Au-coated glass surfaces. The imprinting process involves the electropolymerization of thioaniline-functionalized Au NPs (3.5 nm) on a thioaniline monolayer-modified Au surface in the presence of a carboxylic acid, acting as a template analogue for the respective explosive. The exclusion of the imprinting template from the Au NPs matrix yields the respective imprinted composites. The binding of the analyte explosives to the Au NPs matrixes is probed by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy, SPR, where the electronic coupling between the localized plasmon of the Au NPs and the surface plasmon wave leads to the amplification of the SPR responses originating from the dielectric changes of the matrixes upon binding of the different explosive materials. The resulting imprinted matrixes reveal high affinities and selectivity toward the imprinted explosives. Using citric acid as an imprinting template, Au NPs matrixes for the specific analysis of pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) or of nitroglycerin (NG) were prepared, leading to detection limits of 200 fM and 20 pM, respectively. Similarly, using maleic acid or fumaric acid as imprinting templates, high-affinity sensing composites for ethylene glycol dinitrate (EGDN) were synthesized, leading to a detection limit of 400 fM for both matrixes. 相似文献

The stress conditions imposed by the impact of metal and non‐metal oxide nanoparticles over plant systems enhances the synthesis of reactive oxygen species (ROS), resulting in oxidative damage at cellular level. The objective of this study was to synthesise the gold nanoparticles (GNps) from the leaves protein of Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. xanthi, its characterisation, and response on plant physiology and ROS scavenging activity on plants after exposure to different stresses. The authors have treated N. tabacum L. cv. xanthi plants with 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 ppm biochemically synthesised GNps and examined physiological as well as biochemical changes. Results showed that biochemically synthesised GNps exposure significantly increased the seed germination (P < 0.001), root (P < 0.001), shoot growth (P < 0.001), and antioxidant ability (P < 0.05) of plants depending on bioengineered GNPs concentrations. Low concentrations (200–300 ppm) of GNps boosted growth by ∼50% and significantly increase in photosynthetic parameters such as total chlorophyll content (P < 0.05), membrane ion leakage (P < 0.05) as well as malondialdehyde (P < 0.05) content with respect to untreated plants under stress conditions. The high concentration (400–500 ppm) of GNps affected these parameters in a negative manner. The total antioxidant activity was also elevated in the exposed plants in a dose‐dependent manner.Inspec keywords: toxicology, nanoparticles, membranes, biotechnology, oxidation, proteins, tobacco industryOther keywords: biochemical synthesis, gold nanoparticles, leaf protein, tobacco plant, stress conditions, nonmetal oxide nanoparticles, reactive oxygen species, oxidative damage, leaves protein, plant physiology, ROS scavenging activity, xanthi plants, biochemical changes, nicotiana tabacum L. cv. xanthi 相似文献
