Tailoring the defects of sub-100 nm multipodal titanium nitride/oxynitride nanotubes for efficient water splitting performance by Eid, Kamel

“…Deciphering the photocatalytic-defect relationship of photoanodes can pave the way towards the rational design for high-performance solar energy conversion. Herein, we rationally designed uniform and aligned ultrathin sub-100 nm multipodal titanium nitride/oxynitride nanotubes (TiONxNTs) (x = 2, 4, and 6 h) via the anodic oxidation of Ti-foil in a formamide-based electrolyte followed by annealing under ammonia gas for different durations. …”

Pd nanocrystals encapsulated in MOF-derived Ni/N-doped hollow carbon nanosheets for efficient thermal CO oxidation: unveiling the effect of porosity by Ipadeola, Adewale K.

“…Conspicuously, the T100 of Pd/Ni-MOF-HNC was lower than those of most previously reported Pd-based catalysts due to the high porosity, surface area, and electronic interaction of Pd/Ni-Nx, and Ni-metal defects, which promote the adsorption/activation of reactants (CO + O2), decrease the activation energy to 73.1 kJ mol−1 and enhance the reaction rate at the same CO conversion percentage. …”

Biocompatibility and toxicity of novel iron chelator Starch-Deferoxamine (S-DFO) compared to zinc oxide nanoparticles to zebrafish embryo: An oxidative stress based apoptosis, phys... by Nasrallah, Gheyath

“…S-DFO showed no significant mortality nor deformities at all tested concentrations (0.0-1000 μM). Thus, the LC50 is expected to >1000 μM. 100 μM S-DFO treatment did not affect embryo development (as judged by hatching rate); neuromuscular activity (as judged by tail flicking); and hemoglobin synthesis. …”
