The stable Pickering emulsions were prepared using CNCs as efficient stabilizers without any additional surfactant. The microspheres were successfully fabricated after volatilization of the solvent. What's more,the size of microspheres could be controlled by fabrication parameters.展开更多

The electrospun Al/Fe2O3 composites exhibited a crystal structure and phase composition by X-ray diffraction analysis. The different morphologies of the Al/Fe2O3 composites were also observed through scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the rather simple electrospinning method used to prepare the morphology-controlled Al/Fe2O3 composites may have the potential for preparation of propellants, explosives, and pyrotechnics in the future.展开更多
