Single crystalline Y(OH)3 nanorods were synthesized from Y2O3 powder by a simple hydrothermal synthesis method under alkaline conditions. SEM images displayed that the nanorods have average diameters of about 400nm and lengths up to several micrometers. In this paper, it is used nano-inorganic particles yttrium hydroxide to modified MC nylon. The different mass fraction of yttrium hydroxide has affected mechanical and thermal properties of the MC nylon composites. The results show that with increasing of the mass fraction of yttrium hydroxide, the impact strength is the highest value when yttrium hydroxide mass fraction of 0.25wt%, however the tensile strength decrease 20%. And there is a little change in thermal stability when Yttrium Hydroxide added.

Polyurethane (PU) nanocomposites filled with inorganic particles, aiming at the improvement of mechanical and thermal properties, are well known. Unlike previous work we describe here the combination of two fillers, synthetic talc (silico-metallic mineral particles-SSMMP) with distinct hydrothermal processes (SSMMP 7 h and 24 h) and organically-modified commercial clay (SPR), aiming towards development of new polyurethane ternary nanocomposites by in situ polymerisation. Fillers were added 3 wt.% of the mass of pristine polymer, with a ranging of weight proportions (75:25/25:75) of SSMMP and SPR. Results were compared to those for nanocomposites containing pure SSMMP and SPR fillers. Dispersion degrees and filler interactions with the polyurethane matrix were followed by FTIR, XRD, SEM, TEM and AFM techniques. Results showed that the fillers presented a good dispersion and were exfoliated/ well dispersed in the polyurethane matrix. Thermal and mechanical properties of nanocomposites were evaluated in comparison to the binary nanocomposites (PU/SSMMP 7 h, PU/SSMMP 24 h and PU/ SPR). All nanocomposites presented superior values of Young's modulus to that of pristine PU. Results evidenced that the blend of SSMMP and SPR fillers is an interesting strategy to improve thermal and mechanical properties of nanocomposites.

Polyamide (PA6) is an engineering plastic with wide range of applications and the development in the field of montmorillonite (MMT) filled polymer nanocomposites has resulted in the development of PA6/MMT nanocomposites. However, MMT filled PA6 nanocomposites are notch sensitive and brittle at low temperatures, which posed as a major setback for many of its applications. The main objective of this study is to enhance the toughness of PA6/MMT (100/4) nanocomposites with epoxidised natural rubber-25 (ENR25). The ENR-25 content in the composites ranged from 15 to 30 wt%. The PA6/ENR/MMT nanocomposites were extruded and injection molded into tensile and impact test samples. The addition of ENR25 into PA6/MMT nanocomposites improved the impact strength of the nanocomposites while tensile modulus and tensile strength decreased with increasing ENR25 content. The thermal properties of PA6/ENR/MMT nanocomposites were also investigated via thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). Both T10% and derivative thermal analysis (DTA) determined the lower thermal stability of PA6/MMT nanocomposites after addition of ENR.

Polymer composites of polyaniline (PANI)/polyamide 6 (PA6) blends and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) were prepared via the in situ synthesis method in order to improve formability and electrical properties. Polymer blends and composites were characterized by the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and thermal gravimetric analysis. It was found that the composites prepared by the in situ synthesis method have better compatibility between polymer blends and matrix than that prepared by the conventional dry-mix method as investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrograms indicate the presence of covalent bonds between functional groups between polyaniline and reduced graphene oxide. The PA6/PANI-rGO films show the electrical conductivity of 2.970×10-6 S/cm while PA6/PANI-GtO show electrical conductivity of 4.082×10-7 S/cm. Thermal stability of polymer blend was characterized by the thermogravimetric analysis. The thermal stability of polyamide 6 after blending is not changed significantly.

: Increasing energy crisis across the globe requires immediate solutions. Two-dimensional (2D) materials are in great significance because of its application in energy storage and conversion devices but the production process significantly impacts the environment thereby posing a severe problem in the field of pollution control. Green synthesis method provides an eminent way of reduction in pollutants. This article reviews the importance of green synthesis in the energy application sector. The focus of 2D materials like graphene, MoS2, VS2 in energy storage and conversion devices are emphasized based on supporting recent reports. The emerging Li-ion batteries are widely reviewed along with their promising alternatives like Zn, Na, Mg batteries and are featured in detail. The impact of green methods in the energy application field are outlined. Moreover, future outlook in the energy sector is envisioned by proposing an increase in 2D elemental materials research.

Solid-phase extraction embedded dialysis (SPEED technology) is an innovative procedure developed to physically separate in-situ, during the cultivation, the mycelium of filament forming microorganisms, such as actinomycetes and fungi, and the XAD-16 resin used to trap the secreted specialized metabolites. SPEED consists of an external nylon cloth and an internal dialysis tube containing the XAD resin. The dialysis barrier selects the molecular weight of the trapped compounds, and prevents the aggregation of biomass or macromolecules on the XAD beads. The external nylon promotes the formation of a microbial biofilm, making SPEED a biofilm supported cultivation process. SPEED technology was applied to the marine Streptomyces albidoflavus 19-S21, isolated from a core of a submerged Kopara sampled at 20 m from the border of a saltwater pond. The chemical space of this strain was investigated effectively using a dereplication strategy based on molecular networking and in-depth chemical analysis. The results highlight the impact of culture support on the molecular profile of Streptomyces albidoflavus 19-S21 secondary metabolites.
