The authors report the preparation of the nanocomposite comprising of vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) and selenium (Se) nanoparticles and functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) (V2O5@Se NPs/MWCNTs). Since Se NPs possesses extraordinary physicochemical properties including larger surface area with higher adsorption capacity, V2O5 NPs were adsorbed onto Se NPs surface through physisorption process (designated as V2O5@Se NPs). The nanocomposite synthesized hydrothermally was evaluated for its antimicrobial activity. The morphology and microstructure of the nanocomposite were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, respectively. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and UV-Visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) were employed to analyze the spectral properties of nanocomposite. The microbicidal efficacy of nanocomposite was tested against Gram-negative (G-)ZGram-positive (G+) bacteria and fungus. This is the first report on the synthesis of V2O5@Se NPs/MWCNTs nanocomposites by chemical method that showed microbicidal effect on micro-organisms. The thiol (-SH) units facilitates the enrichment of V2O5@Se NPs onto MWCNTs surface. Ultimately, it reflects on the significant antimicrobial activity of V2O5@Se NPs/MWCNTs.

AbstractHere in this study timing saving, easy and cost effective methods has been applied for fabricating the dielectric energy storage materials. Ceramic nanoparticles (FLZC’s) have been successfully synthesized by Sol-Gel method and its nanocomposites with non-conducting polymers (PVP, PVA, PEG, PEO) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT’s) by one-pot blending technique. Energy dispersive x-ray diffraction (EDX), x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA/DTA), AC impedance analyzer and dielectric properties were determined for all the samples. Dielectric properties showed good agreement with that of energy storage substances for electronic device fabrication. High dielectric constant was achieved when 0.5 wt% MWCNT’s was added to FLZC’s/MWCNT’s/Polymer nanocomposites. The stability and performance of the nanocomposites were dependent on the type of polymer used. These preparation materials can be employed in functional materials, such as high charge-storage capacitors, electrostriction for artificial muscles and smart skins etc.

A facile synthesis method of three dimensional reduced graphene oxide (RGO)/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) hydrogel was introduced. Hydrogel samples which were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) have been used as the electrode of supercapacitor. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD) were used to investigate the Supercapacitors which we have fabricated. Because MWCNTs inserting into layers of RGO homogeneously prevent the layers of RGO from stacking and enlarge the specific surface area of graphene, the specific capacitance of RGO/MWCNTs material has been greatly improved. At the current density of 0.2A/g, the specific capacitance of RGO/MWCNTs electrode is about 176F/g, which means a 52% increasement compared to which of pure RGO material electrode. And the specific capacitance of RGO/MWCNTs also achieves a good rate property.

Nanoscaled (about 15 nm of size) metastable carbide Co3C was synthesized in a high-energy planetary ball mill by mechanical alloying of a mixture of powder cobalt (75 at. %) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNT, 25 at. %). Phase transformation takes place at reaction milling according to the reaction hcp-Co + CNT ® Co3C (reaction time is 120 - 220 min). The crystal structure of the Co3C carbide formed in the milling products was studied by X-ray diffraction method. It has revealed that the Co3C phase crystallizes in a Fe3C-type structure with a = 0.4982(3) nm, b = 0.6715(6) nm, c = 0.4457(7) nm, Pnma space group. The reliability factor RB is equal to 0.065 for 48 reflections presented at diffraction pattern. It is found that the crystal structure of the Co3C carbide obtained by reaction milling of the Co-CNT charge is significantly internally deformed (distortion degree of the CCo6 octahedron is 3.67 %) and contains the reduced interatomic Co-C distances (up to 0.188 nm). It was shown that the use of carbon nanotubes instead of graphite substantially reduces the duration of the Co3C carbide synthesis.
