Exploring the material and dielectric properties of poly(vinylidene fluoride) composites incorporated with graphene and graphene oxide.

This study focuses on enhancing the structural, thermal, and dielectric properties of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) nanocomposites loaded with graphene oxide (GO) and graphene (G), synthesized solution casting. Characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), revealed significant enhancements due to the nanofillers. The crystallinity of PG composites increased to 60.

Adjustable dielectric and bioactivity characteristics of chitosan-based composites via crosslinking approach and incorporation of graphene.

This study explores the structural, electrical, dielectric, and bioactivity properties of chitosan (CS) composites incorporating graphene (G) nanoparticles. Characterization techniques, including Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), dielectric spectroscopy, and in vitro testing in SBF, were employed to investigate the effects of G content and crosslinking. The XPS peak at 289.

Determination of palladium in soil samples by slotted quartz tube-flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry after vortex-assisted ligandless preconcentration with magnetic nanoparticle-based dispersive solid-phase microextraction.

In this study, a rapid and effective dispersive solid-phase microextraction (d-SPME) method was developed to preconcentrate Pd from aqueous extract of soil samples by slotted quartz tube-flame atomic absorption spectrometry (SQT-FAAS). The unique properties of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were used to directly isolate Pd from the sample solutions without the need for complexation. Significant parameters of the extraction method such as magnetic nanoparticle type and amount, pH and amount of buffer solution, amount of eluent, and mixing type and period were optimized together with other instrumental parameters to boost the absorbance signal of Pd.
