Deformation Mechanisms in Pd Nanowhiskers
… configuration to test defect-free and -scarce Pd nanowhiskers, we have been able to systematically investigate some of the important deformation mechanisms in nanoscale single crystals. We first address the elastic behavior in nanoscale crystals, which is predicted to differ from bulk behavior due …

Nanoarchitectured Energy Storage Devices
… method to develop high aspect ratio copper oxide nanowhiskers on copper substrate is presented, which boosts the surface area by 1000 times compared to non-nanostructured copper substrate. Electrochemically deposited MnO2 on the nanostructured substrate provided a specific capacitance of about …

Pressure Variation Assisted Fiber Extraction and Development of High Performance Natural Fiber Composites and Nanocomposites
It is believed, that due to the large surface areas provided by the nano scale materials, various composite properties could be enhanced when such particles are incorporated into a polymer matrix. There is also a trend of utilizing natural resources or reusing and recycling materials that are …

Effect of surface modifications on biodegradation of nanocellulose and microbial response
History teaches us that novel materials, such as chlorofluorocarbon and asbestos, can have dire unintended consequences to human and environmental health. The exponential growth of the field of nanotechnology and the products developed along the way provide the opportunity for a new paradigm of …
