Abstract
In the present study, the hybrid reinforcements (Fe3O4–SiC) novel composite has been successfully fabricated by powder metallurgy method. Adding Fe3O4 nanoparticles and SiC hybrid reinforcements in the aluminium matrix, improved the magnetic permeability of aluminium matrix composites as well as, thermal properties without mechanical degradation. In this study, the aim was to define the influence of SiC–Fe3O4 nanoparticles on microstructural, thermal, electrical, and magnetic properties of the composite. Based on obtained results, the highest density and hardness is 2.72 g/cm3 and 93 HV respectively. Adding (10–30 wt% SiC) into Al–15Fe3O4 slightly improved the magnetic saturation from...

Abstract
Purpose: Although magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) are promising agents for hyperthermia therapy, insufficient drug encapsulation efficacies inhibit their application as nanocarriers in the targeted drug delivery systems. In this study, porous magnetite nanoparticles (PMNPs) were synthesized and coated with a thermosensitive polymeric shell to obtain a synergistic effect of hyperthermia and chemotherapy. Materials and methods: PMNPs were produced using cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide template and then coated by a polyethylene glycol layer with molecular weight of 1500 Da (PEG1500) and phase transition temperature of 48 ± 2 °C to endow a thermosensitive behavior. The profile of drug release...

Abstract
Unlike gold and silver, aluminum shows a localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) over a wide spectral range from ultraviolet (UV) to the visible region. Herein, we demonstrate a new process to optically couple TiO2 nanotubes (NTs) with a high-strength aluminum substrate, to achieve a synergistic enhancement of photocatalytic antibacterial effects through controlled LSPR of aluminum. The high-strength aluminum substrate was produced by tubular channel angular pressing (TCAP). Their LSPR was tailored through the formation of superficial nano-concave arrays (NCAs) with desired concave diameters. A layer of aligned TiO2 NTs was fabricated on the surface of aluminum nano-concave arrays (Al...
