There is a growing interest in creating biomimetic actuators that can perform human‐like actions in response to external stimuli. Despite the significant advancements in soft actuators, using high‐energy UV light in photoresponsive actuators remains a great challenge. Herein, we develop a film composed of polyvinyl alcohol and photo responsive Disp...
Light-responsive soft actuators are highly demanded due to their increasing applications in soft robotics and biomimetic devices. However, for light-driven soft actuators, it is challenging to eliminate their reliance on UV light as well as it is required to address the issue of poor mechanical strength. Here, a supramolecular strategy is used for...
This work reports tuning of the band gap of the titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles by carbon doping during sol-gel synthesis. Herein, polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride (PDADMAC), a cationic polymer has been used as the carbon source. The band gap, microstructure and the phase of the synthesized TiO2 can be engineered by controlling the concen...
This work reports the synthesis of Au doped iron oxide nanoparticles by co-precipitation method using a cationic polymer as a stabilizer and subsequent coating with graphene oxide (GO) to form the catalytically enhanced GO/Au-Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and X-ray di...
In the present study, carbon-doped titanium dioxide (C-TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) have been synthesized by utilizing the sol-gel method. Herein, polymer was used as the source for carbon-doping. The synthesized C-TiO2 was characterized by UV-Diffused Reflectance spectroscopy (UV-DRS). A significant decrease in the band gap of pure TiO2 was observed...
In the present study, the effect of Ce(III) on the clouding behavior of Triton X-100 has been investigated in the presence and absence of imidazolium based ionic liquids of varying chain length and counter ions. Thermodynamic parameters of clouding were calculated to comprehend the underlying interactions between the surfactant and the additives. T...
The Cloud Point (CP) phenomenon finds potential applications in extraction as well as separation of various metal ions, organic compounds and proteins. Presence of additives plays a major role in altering the clouding phenomenon of a surfactant. The additives, even at very low concentrations, can modify the extraction efficiency, micellar size, sur...
