Structure and microstructure characterization are very important for determining the membrane hydrophilicity, morphology, porosity, and mechanical properties that affect the membrane separation performance and durability. This article analyzes the morphological differences between graphene oxide (GO) and functionalized graphene oxide (f-GO) based on data from SEM imaging. nalysis of the morphology of mixed matrix membrane (MMMs) through SEM, mechanical properties through DMA and hydrophilicity through contact angle data. This dataset will support the original research article "Mixed matrix membranes containing aspartic acid functionalized graphene oxide for enhanced oil-water emulsion separation" (Abdalla, Wahab and Abdala, 2020; doi.org/10.1016/j.jece.2020.104269). The data reported here also include raw data for stress vs strain measurements, mass recorded during permeation test and pure water fluxes at different pressures for all prepared MMMs.

Lattice thermal conductivity and phonon properties of polycrystalline graphene.

Nanoscale Adv

Using the spectral energy density method, we predict the phonon scattering mean lifetimes of polycrystalline graphene (PC-G) having polycrystallinity only along the -axis with seven different misorientation (tilt) angles at room temperature. Contrary to other studies on PC-G samples, our results indicate a strong dependence of the thermal conductivity (TC) on the tilt angles which we attribute to careful preparation of our grain boundaries-based samples without introducing any local strains and ensuring periodic boundary conditions for the supercells along the and axes. We also show that the square of the group velocity components along and axes and the phonon lifetimes are uncorrelated and the phonon density of states are almost the same for all samples with different tilt angles.

Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs), such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene quantum dots (GQDs), and carbon quantum dots (CQDs), are prevalent in biological systems and have been widely utilized in applications like environmental sensing and biomedical fields. While their presence in human matrices is projected to increase, the interfacial interactions between carbon-based nanoscopic platforms and biomolecular systems continue to remain underexplored. In this study, we investigated the effect of gelatin-sourced CQDs on the globular milk protein beta-lactoglobulin (BLG).

Efforts to prevent fouling are crucial in advancing ultrafiltration (UF) membranes, especially in addressing the concentration polarization of the accumulation of dissolved dye molecules in wastewater. This study explores the impact of incorporating graphene oxide (GO) onto eggshell (ES) UF membranes regarding their permeability, rejection efficiency, and permeate flow rate. The ES-GO membranes were obtained from eggshells that were modified with varied concentrations of GO (0.
