The purpose of the paper is to obtain a new composite material based on chemically functionalized nanoparticles dispersed in plastomer matrix. The dispersion of the ZnO nanoparticles in a plastomer matrix (PETr) leads to a high-performance polymeric material with multi-functional, antibacterial, and plastomer-specific processing properties. In this paper, elastomeric nanocompound materials were selected, due to performance properties such as: antimicrobial, resistance to aggressive chemical agents, mechanical prop...

Noble metallic nanoparticles, silver (Ag) and gold (Au) especially, are very important in modern nanotechnology due to their various applications in medicine, pharmacy and diagnosis especially due to their proven antimicrobial and antioxidant activity. Both silver (AgNPs) and gold (AuNPs) nanoparticles can be synthesized using conventional or unconventional methods and, in recent years, the unconventional methods that rely on the biosynthesis of metallic nanoparticles from different plants and plant parts are cons...

Using the open-source library for calculations in the field of kinetics and thermodynamics Cantera, a software module has been developed. Computer simulation of dry reforming of methane in a membrane reactor-contactor has been performed. The one-dimensional mathematical model of gas flow in a porous catalytic coating is used. The influence of a number of parameters, such as characteristics of pores of catalytic membrane coating, and the temperature and the flow rate of the gas mixture on the dry reforming of metha...

Silver and gold nanoparticles have unique antimicrobial and antifungal properties that make them excellent candidates for applications in nanomedicine, tissue engineering and bio-imaging. Green synthesis of metallic nanoparticles is preferred over conventional chemical routes because is eco-friendly, requires no reducing agents and no toxic chemicals result. In the present research study, one-pot green synthesis of noble metallic nanoparticles, namely silver (AgNPs) and gold (AuNPs) nanoparticles, from aqueous ext...
