Graphene-Polymer Nanocomposites for Drug Delivery Applications
Abstract: Graphene-polymer nanocomposites (GPNCs) have gained significant attention in drug delivery due to their exceptional physicochemical properties, including high surface area, mechanical strength, tunable functionality, and biocompatibility. These nanocomposites integrate graphene derivatives, such as graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), with biocompatible polymers to enhance drug loading efficiency, stability, and controlled release. Various natural (chitosan, alginate) and synthetic (PLGA, PEG, PCL) polymers are used to functionalize graphene, enabling targeted …

CdS-Based Photocatalytic Nanostructures: A Promising Material for Various Environmental Applications
Abstract: Modern technological and industrial progress has significantly increased the use of chemicals in product development, leading to greater contamination of water sources by conventional pollutants (such as organic dyes and heavy metals) and harmful microorganisms. Wastewater treatment processes now reveal “emerging pollutants,” including pharmaceuticals, endocrine disruptors, and agricultural chemicals. Certain emerging pollutants, though harmless in some cases, can pose serious risks to various organisms. To address this, researchers are exploring …

Current-Voltage Characteristics of 15-Atom Agnrs and Zcnts at Various Bias Voltages: Insights for Polymer Nanocomposite Applications
Abstract: The present research investigates the electronic properties of 15-atom Armchair Graphene Nanoribbons (AGNRs) and 15-atom Zig-Zag Carbon Nanotubes (ZCNTs) under applied bias voltages of 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 millivolts. Using the Non-Equilibrium Green's Function (NEGF) technique, the study analyzes various electrical features, including current-voltage (I-V) characteristics, to understand the behavior of these nanostructures. The findings reveal that AGNRs exhibit a larger bandgap than ZCNTs, which have a …
