Surface coatings with enhanced mechanical stability, improved tribological performance, and superior anticorrosion performance find immense application in various industrial sectors. Herein, we report the development of multifunctional composite zinc phosphate coatings by the effective integration of a structurally and morphologically tuned P-doped MoS nanoparticle additive (3P-MoS) into the zinc phosphate matrix to offer attractive characteristics suitable for industrial applications. The integration of spherical nanoparticles as additive leads to the formation of homogeneous and compact coatings with a densely packed crystalline microstructure having enhanced microhardness, distinctive leaf-like morphology, and comparatively smooth topographical features.

Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) poses a significant public health issue, often leading to muscle atrophy and persistent neuropathic pain, which can drastically impact the quality of life for patients. Electrical stimulation represents an effective and non-pharmacological treatment to promote nerve regeneration. Yet, the postoperative application of electrical stimulation remains a challenge.

Alternate antibiotics developed through the involvement of nanomaterials are gaining interest due to their economical and lower toxicity concerns. A newly developed biopolymer-based polyvinylpyrrolidone/zinc oxide (PVP/ZnO) nanocomposite (NCs) was efficiently synthesized by an environment-friendly approach, utilizing onion and garlic peel extract as a bio-surfactant, zinc acetate as the source, PVP as the stabilizing agent, and sodium hydroxide as the precipitant. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) investigations verified the crystalline properties of ZnO, PVP, and PVP/ZnO-based NCs.

Ensuring food security and sustainable resource management has become a paramount global concern, prompting significant attention to land suitability analysis for enhancing agricultural production. In this study, an AHP-weighted overlay method was employed to delineate rice cultivation suitability in Guilan province, Iran, a central hub for rice production. Sixteen climatic, topographic, and soil variables were integrated, and individual maps were reclassified to align with the specific requisites for rice production.

Nanoparticles (NPs) formulation in biopolymers is an attractive process for the researcher to decrease the disadvantages of NPs application alone. Bimetallic NPs are a promising formula of two NPs that usually act as synergetic phenomena. Zinc oxide and gold NPs (ZnO@AuNPs) biosynthesis as a bimetallic was prepared via the eco-friendly manner currently.
