In this paper, CuO/MnO2 nanocomposites were successfully fabricated by simple and economical electrodeposition and successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method as electrode materials for supercapacitors (SCs). Spherical and wheat-shaped CuO nanomaterials were obtained by...

In the present study the synthesis of silver nanoparticles mediated by aqueous leaf extracts of Swertia chirayita is reported.Nanoparticles are particles having diameters below 100 nm. The nanoparticles formed were characterized using Uv-Vis spectrophotometer, scanning electron microscope, Ft-IR...

New technologies have challenges to overcome when applying it to new products. New products depend on the technological and market novelties. Therefore, the term product innovativeness is defined as the technological and market degree of novelty. For several industries, the nanotechnology has...
