Multiplicative rGO/Cu-BDC MOF for 4-nitrophenol reduction and supercapacitor applications.

Two-dimensional nanosheets, with their distinct characteristics, are widely used in various applications such as water splitting, supercapacitors, catalysis etc. In this research, we produced Cu-BDC MOF nanosheets by using CuO nanotubes for metal ions and HBDC as the organic linker. We combined these Cu-BDC MOF nanosheets with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to form a nanocomposite.

Synergistic effect of Ag decorated in-liquid plasma treated titanium dioxide catalyst for efficient electrocatalytic CO reduction application.

Recently, the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO) into a useful resource and its byproducts by electrocatalytic reduction has been studied. It is well known that CO can be selectively reduced by gold, lead, etc. supported on conductive carbon.

Enhanced degradation of ibuprofen using a combined treatment of plasma and Fenton reactions.

Advanced oxidation technologies (AOTs) proved to be effective in the degradation of hazardous organic impurities like acids, dyes, antibiotics etc. in the last few decades. AOTs are mainly based on the generation of reactive chemical species (RCS) such as hydroxyl, superoxide radicals etc.

Enhanced Photocatalytic Degradation Activity Using the VO/RGO Composite.

Semiconductor-based photocatalyst materials played an important role in the degradation of organic compounds in recent years. Photocatalysis is a simple, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly process for degrading organic compounds. In this work, vanadium pentoxide (VO) and VO/RGO (reduced graphene oxide) composite were synthesized by a hydrothermal method.

Chemically Synthesized Iron-Oxide-Based Pure Negative Electrode for Solid-State Asymmetric Supercapacitor Devices.

Among energy storage devices, supercapacitors have received considerable attention in recent years owing to their high-power density and extended cycle life. Researchers are currently making efforts to improve energy density using different asymmetric cell configurations, which may provide a wider potential window. Many studies have been conducted on positive electrodes for asymmetric supercapacitor devices; however, studies on negative electrodes have been limited.
