Synthesis of novel liquid phase exfoliation of chitosan/BiSe hybrid nanocomposites for in-vitro wound healing.

Numerous studies have recently established the potential of chitosan (Chi) to enhance wound healing. Chi is a carbohydrate biopolymer that is biocompatible, low-cost, toxic-free, and has excellent antibacterial properties. In this study, we synthesized Chi/BiSe hybrid nanocomposites (NCs) using a liquid exfoliation approach.

Carbon Loaded Nano-Designed Spherically High Symmetric Lithium Iron Orthosilicate Cathode Materials for Lithium Secondary Batteries.

In the present study, LiFeSiO (LFS) cathode material has been prepared via a modified polyol method. The stabilizing nature of polyol solvent was greatly influenced to reduce the particle size (~50 nm) and for coating the carbon on the surface of the as-mentioned materials (~10 nm). As-prepared nano-sized LiFeSiO material deliver initial discharge capacity of 186 mAh·g at 1C with the coulombic efficiency of 99% and sustain up to 100 cycles with only 7 mAh·g is the difference of discharge capacity from its 1st cycle to 100th cycle.
