Influence of Non-Toxic Magnetic Cellulose Nanofibers on Chitosan based Edible Nanocoating: A Candidate for Improved Mechanical, Thermal, Optical, and Texture Properties
摘要: The present work demonstrates the formulation of cellulose nanofiber (CNF) or magnetic cellulose nanofiber (mgCNF) dispersed chitosan based edible nanocoating with superior mechanical, thermal, optical and texture properties. The fabrication of mgCNF is successfully achieved through single-step co-precipitation route, where iron particles get adsorbed onto CNF. The thermal stability of mgCNF is improved considerably, where ~17% reduction in weight is observed, whereas CNF degrades completely under identical conditions. TGA analysis shows that there is an improvement in thermal stability for both CNF and mgCNF reinforced CS nanocoatings, where mgCNF provides more heat dimensional stability than CNF dispersed CS nanocoatings. Further, the edible nanocoatings are stable even at the temperature of heat treatment such as food sterilization. The mechanical property of the mgCNF dispersed chitosan (CS) shows remarkable improvement in tensile strength (57.86±14 MPa) and Young’s modulus (2348.52±276 MPa) compared to neat CS (6.27±0.7 MPa and 462.36±64 MPa, respectively). To recognize the developed materials as safe as food, the quantification of iron is made by using ICP-MS technique. It is noteworthy to mention that mgCNF coated CS help in improving the texture of cut pineapples in comparison with uncoated pineapple slices at ambient condition.

Protective Properties of a Microstructure Composed of Barrier Nanostructured Organics and SiOx Layers Deposited on a Polymer Matrix
摘要: The SiOx barrier nanocoatings have been prepared on selected polymer matrices to increase their resistance against permeation of toxic substances. The aim has been to find out whether the method of vacuum plasma deposition of SiOx barrier nanocoatings on a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) foil used by Aluminium Company of Canada (ALCAN) company (ALCAN Packaging Kreuzlingen AG (SA/Ltd., Kreuzlingen, Switzerland) within the production of CERAMIS? packaging materials with barrier properties can also be used to increase the resistance of foils from other polymers against the permeation of organic solvents and other toxic liquids. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) microstructure of SiOx nanocoatings prepared by thermal deposition from SiO in vacuum by the Plasma Assisted Physical Vapour Deposition (PA-PVD) method or vacuum deposition of hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) by the Plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) method have been studied. The microstructure and behavior of samples when exposed to a liquid test substance in relation to the barrier properties is described.

Organic Fractal Nano-Dimensional Structures Based on Fullerene C <sub/>60</sub>
摘要: The ways for a synthesis of nanoporous and close-packed types of fullerene C60 aggregates in two-component organic solvents (toluene + tetrahydrofuran) were established as well as their structural and dimensional features - were studied by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and atomic-force microscopy methods. The physical features and regularities that characterize the processes of self-organization of fullerene molecules in the initial molecular solution were determined. The method for producing nanoscale fullerene C60 fractal coatings (thickness up to ~1200 nm) on a flat dielectric glass surface was proposed.

Carbon Allotrope-Based Optical Fibers for Environmental and Biological Sensing: A Review
摘要: Recently, carbon allotropes have received tremendous research interest and paved a new avenue for optical fiber sensing technology. Carbon allotropes exhibit unique sensing properties such as large surface to volume ratios, biocompatibility, and they can serve as molecule enrichers. Meanwhile, optical fibers possess a high degree of surface modification versatility that enables the incorporation of carbon allotropes as the functional coating for a wide range of detection tasks. Moreover, the combination of carbon allotropes and optical fibers also yields high sensitivity and specificity to monitor target molecules in the vicinity of the nanocoating surface. In this review, the development of carbon allotropes-based optical fiber sensors is studied. The first section provides an overview of four different types of carbon allotropes, including carbon nanotubes, carbon dots, graphene, and nanodiamonds. The second section discusses the synthesis approaches used to prepare these carbon allotropes, followed by some deposition techniques to functionalize the surface of the optical fiber, and the associated sensing mechanisms. Numerous applications that have benefitted from carbon allotrope-based optical fiber sensors such as temperature, strain, volatile organic compounds and biosensing applications are reviewed and summarized. Finally, a concluding section highlighting the technological deficiencies, challenges, and suggestions to overcome them is presented.
