The essence of Nanotechnology; Nanoparticles and cutting edge applications in Molecular electronics and Molecular medicine
Abstract: In this paper, the essence of nanotechnology is presented. Nanotechnology is emerged as a fabrication method, computational tools, and revolutionized electronics and medicine. The bio-chemo-physical properties are understood in different dimension with emphasis on various synthesis techniques and size dependent physio-chemical properties. Most properties resulting from size reduction from macro scale to nanoscale and molecular interactions with nanoparticles significantly contributes to its multi function. A systematic illustration of nanotechnology at …

Influence of Compatibilizers on the Morphology, Mechanical, Thermal andRheological Properties of Polypropylene/Organomuscovite Nanocomposites
Abstract: In this study, the effects of two different compatibilizer types-maleated polypropylene and hexamethylenediamine modified maleated polypropylene-on the characteristics of a polypropylene/maleated polypropylene/organo-muscovite clay nanocomposite were investigated. By combining polypropylene with three different levels of organo-muscovite clay content, two distinct compatibilizers were used to make the nanocomposites, each with a fixed amount of 10 weight percent. The compatibilizer's effects on the morphological, mechanical, thermal, and rheological characteristics of nanocomposites were then …
