Explained Hydrogels and Applications - Nanografi Blog
Hydrogels are crosslinked polymer
networks. The polymer structure of hydrogels exhibits great absorption
capacity, swelling and shrinking behavior upon environmental changes and
biocompatibility. Through different preparation methods and polymeric
components, hydrogels can acquire different responsive behaviors. Hydrogels can
be responsive to pH, temperature, solvent
composition, enzymes, electric fields, and light.Click Image to Check Hydrogel ApplicationsOver the past decades,

Use of Graphene in Nuclear Power Plants
The element Graphene probably means nothing to you. However, it is part of
the composition of one of the most common objects that is near you: a pencil.
Graphene is a two-dimensional sheet of carbon atoms organized in a honeycomb
structure and its stack forms the graphite of our pencil mines. Graphene was
discovered in 2004 by two physicists, Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov when
it was believed to be physically impossible. Graphene has incredible properties,
to the point that it c

Analyzed: Anatase Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles
Ultrafine anatase titanium dioxide nanoparticles and
nanocrystals (TiO2) with average particle size of less than 100nm have
ultra-violate (UV) radiation blocking properties as well as the ability to
prevent photocatalytic reaction if they are coated with alumina and silica.Also, the titanium dioxide nanoparticles have applications
in materials for construction purposes such as antifogging coatings and windows
with self-cleaning quality. Titanium dioxide nanoparticle are referred as a
