High-Performance Battery-Type Supercapacitors Based on Self-Oriented Growth of Nanorods/Nanospheres Composite Assembled on Self-Standing Conductive GO/CNF Frameworks.

MnO-based materials have limited capacity and poor conductivity over various voltages, hampering their potential for energy storage applications. This work proposes a novel approach to address these challenges. A self-oriented multiple-electronic structure of a 1D-MnO-nanorod/2D-MnO-nanosphere composite was assembled on 2D-graphene oxide nanosheet/1D-carbon nanofiber (GO/CNF) hybrids.

A facile green synthesis of gold nanoparticles using Canthium parviflorum extract sustainable and energy efficient photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants for environmental remediation.

Organic dye and nitrophenol pollution from textiles and other industries present a substantial risk to people and aquatic life. One of the most essential remediation techniques is photocatalysis, which uses the strength of visible light to decolorize water. The present study reports Canthium Parviflorum (CNP) leaf extract utilization as an effective bio-reductant for green synthesis of Au NPs.

Strategic Way of Synthesizing Heteroatom-Doped Carbon Nano-onions Using Waste Chicken Fat Oil for Energy Storage Devices.

An easy way of synthesizing low-cost carbon nanomaterials without the need for high-temperature processing approach is critical for energy storage applications because the demand has increased for affordable, long-term, and environmentally friendly synthesized carbon-based materials. Herein, we synthesized multilayered graphitic carbon nano-onions (CNOs) using an oil-wick flame pyrolysis approach, employing biowaste (chicken fat) oil as a cost-effective precursor. The prepared CNOs can provide enhanced ion movement and less resistance for electron transport by interconnecting CNO particles with one another.

Self-Supported CoO@Mo-CoO Needle-like Nanosheet Heterostructured Architectures of Battery-Type Electrodes for High-Performance Asymmetric Supercapacitors.

Herein, this report uses CoO nanoneedles to decorate Mo-CoO nanosheets over Ni foam, which were fabricated by the hydrothermal route, in order to create a supercapacitor material which is compared with its counterparts. The surface morphology of the developed material was investigated through scanning electron microscopy and the structural properties were evaluated using XRD. The charging storage activities of the electrode materials were evaluated mainly by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge investigations.

Construction of Bimetallic Hybrid Multishell Hollow Spheres via Sequential Template Approach for Less Cytotoxic Antimicrobial Effect.

This work has aimed to synthesize less cytotoxic but antibacterial effective materials. Here we synthesized zinc, titanium nanoparticles based multishell hollow spheres (ZnO@TiO2 MSHS) via sequential template approach (STA) and studied their comparative antimicrobial activity with pure zinc and titanium nanoparticles (NPs). Various techniques have been used to explore the physico-chemical properties of the hybrid shells (ZnO@TiO2 MSHS).

Facile synthesis of efficient construction of tungsten disulfide/iron cobaltite nanocomposite grown on nickel foam as a battery-type energy material for electrochemical supercapacitors with superior performance.

In this research literature, a tungsten disulfide/iron cobaltite (WS/FeCoO) interwoven construction array was prepared by a simplistic hydrothermal approach on Ni foam as an integrative electrode for supercapacitors (SCs). For characterization of the wearing of WS nanostructure on FeCoO nanosheets (WS/FeCoO) by the Scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The WS/FeCoO nanosheets supply a larger surface region and sufficient space to allow for volume changes.
