Abstract

When in a pure form, carbon nanotubes are known to be stable in air up to ∼800 K making them attractive for a large variety of applications. In this work, we report a significant decrease of ignition temperature (in some cases occurring at ∼500 K) and a reduction in the apparent activation energy…

Well-designed multifunctional D-(+) Glucose capped nickel nanoparticles (G-Ni NPs) with reduced toxicity was synthesized via green chemistry using D-(+) Glucose and ammonia in water. Here, glucose serves as a reducing and capping agent, resulting in highly stable and well-dispersed G-Ni NPs in the solution. The temperature and field dependent magnetization (M–H) showed a typical magnetic behavior for the G-Ni NPs. In zero field cooled (ZFC) curve, the peak was observed at [similar]15 K,…
