Fabrication of multifunctional TANI/Cu2O/Ag nanocomposite for environmental abatement
Abstract During past decade, the ternary nanocomposite is ubiquitous in nanotechnology. Herein, a simple fabrication of cuprous oxide (Cu2O) and silver (Ag) nanoparticles into Tetraaniline (TANI) matrix by in situ-polymerization approach to attain Tetramer-Metal Oxide-Metal (TANI/Cu2O/Ag, shortly TC...
