For producing second-generation ethanol (cellulosic ethanol) and other value-added bioproducts, magnetic graphene oxide (GO-MNP) was synthesized in this work and used as the immobilization support for an industrial ...

A set of nanocomposites made of iron oxide nanoparticles covalently bonded to graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide was successfully prepared. The synthesis was carried out in a precise step-by-step process in order ...

Two compositions of graphene oxide-magnetite nanocomposites were studied as catalysts in the heterogeneous Fenton process. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction revealed that the graphene oxide sheets were ...

The use of lipases in industrials processes has increased due to its ability to catalyze total or partial hydrolysis reactions of fatty acids. However, due to the difficulty of isolation and purification of lipases, as ...

A study addressed to develop new recyclable and/or biodegradable magnetic polymeric materials is reported. The selected matrices were polypropylene (PP) and poly (lactic acid) (PLA). As known, PP corresponds to a non-polar ...

This work illustrates an effective method for obtaining hybrid nanoparticles of Ni-Fe-Mo permalloy and reduced graphene oxide (rGO). The metallic nanoparticles were spread by the sputtering technique, which allowed a good ...

Carbon–metal-based composites arise as advanced materials in the frontiers with nanotechnology, since the properties inherent to each component are multiplexed into a new material with potential applications. In this work, ...

As terapias fotodinâmica e fototérmica vêm sendo desenvolvidas de forma a oferecer melhores e mais baratas alternativas no tratamento de câncer. Os principais desafios na utilização destas técnicas estão na obtenção de ...
