One-pot, three-component reactions of structurally diverse salicylaldehydes with malononitrile (or ethylcyanoacetate) and diethyl (or dimethyl) phosphate are carried out in the presence of nano-rods ZnO as an efficient catalyst for the synthesis of biologically interesting 2-amino-4H-chromen-4-yl phosphonate derivatives. The value of this method lies in its mild and environmentally benign reaction, simple procedure, good yields, and ease of handling.

Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized using an environmentally benign biogenic approach employing an extract of kernels of (kalonji). The presence of primary and secondary metabolites in extract acted as the capping and reducing agent. The as-synthesized ZnO NPs were characterized using various advanced techniques i.

Although, different plant species were utilized for the fabrication of polymorphic, hexagonal, spherical, and nanoflower ZnO NPs with various diameters, few studies succeeded in synthesizing small diameter ZnO nanorods from plant extract at ambient temperature. This work sought to pioneer the ZnO NPs fabrication from the aqueous extract of a Mediterranean salt marsh plant species Limoniastrum monopetalum (L.) Boiss.

The fabrication of bimetallic nanoparticles (BNPs) using plant extracts is applauded since it is an environmentally and biologically safe method. In this research, leaf extract was utilized to bioreduce metal ions for the production of therapeutically important core-shell Au-Ag and hybrid (Au-ZnO and Ag-ZnO) BNPs. The phytochemical profiling of the leaf extract in terms of total phenolic and flavonoid content is attributed to its high free radical scavenging activity.

Carbon fiber reinforced epoxy (CFRE) laminate structures have emerged as futuristic materials having surpassed metals in strength and durability. The interfacial chemistry determines the mechanical performance of such laminates. In this study, a unique approach was adopted wherein the alternate layers of the carbon fiber (CF) mat were grown with ZnO nano-rods and modified with bis-maleimide (BMI), and epoxy resin containing 0.
