Lithium-ion batteries prevail over the market for portable electronics due to their high energy density, long cycle life, and relatively low self-discharge rate. Nevertheless, the demand for lithium-ion batteries in emerging applications such as electric vehicles and grid storage has placed increased pressure on the supply chain of essential batter
Metal-Organic Framework Encapsulation of Nanoparticles for Enhanced Graphene Integration
Recent research have demonstrated the significant potential of MOFs in encapsulating nanoclusters to enhance graphene integration. This synergistic strategy offers promising opportunities for improving the efficiency of graphene-based composites. By polystyrene nanoparticles carefully selecting both the MOF structure and the encapsulated nanopartic
Synthesis and Characterization of SWCNT-Functionalized Fe3O4 Nanoparticles
In this study, we outline a novel strategy for the synthesis and characterization of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) functionalized with iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4|Fe2O3|FeO). The preparation process involves a two-step approach, first bonding SWCNTs onto a compatible substrate and then introducing Fe3O4 nanoparticles via a coprecipita
