NAP 2018: 2018 IEEE 8th International Conference on Nanomaterials: Applications & Properties
NAP-2018 Conference served as an excellent international platform for an engaging and informal exchange of ideas, that provides opportunities to strengthen existing collaborations and catalyze new partnerships, and thus ultimately accelerating the application of nanotechnology to address the most urgent societal needs.
The NAP – 2018 Conference is devoted to the most interesting aspects of modern Materials Science with the prime focus on nanoscale materials. Although nanoscience and nanotechnology are still in their infancy, this rapidly evolving field of research is quickly transforming almost all aspects of our everyday life. From the low power electronics and supercomputers, to advanced drugs and personalized medicine, from new industrial applications, and renewable energy to advanced transportation and clean air technologies, nanoscience is the foundation of many of the transformational discoveries in the decades to come.
Tracks and Topics:
- Synthesis, Characterization and Properties of Nanomaterials;
- Carbon-based and other 2D materials;
- Photonics & Nanomaterials;

2018 IEEE 8th International Conference on Nanomaterials: Applications & Properties
Here we demonstrate a new developed method for depositing Ti3C2Tx MXenes onto hydrophobic electrospun PCL membranes using oxygen plasma treatment. These novel patches hold tremendous potential for providing mechanical support to damaged heart tissue and enabling electrical signal transmission,thereby mimicking the crucial electroconductivity required for normal cardiac function. After a detailed investigation of scaffold-to-cell interplay, including electrical stimulation, novel technology has the potential for clinical application not only for cardiac regeneration, but also as neural and muscular tissue substitutes.
