• compounds triggered by liquid metals, leading to the formation of phenolic nanocoatings on substrates. In detail, nanocoatings of the phenolic compound pyrogallol deposited on polystyrene, glass beads, and paper yielded free radical scavenging activities of ca. 67%, ca. 84%, and ca. 92%, respectively [61

• case of LNM/C composites, the lithium intercalation is almost completely finished at 3.64 V, but for pure Li1.4Ni0.5Mn0.5O2+x it takes place over a wider potential range. It means that the carbon nanocoatings enable the polarization decrease upon lithium intercalation [23]. After galvanostatic cycling

• PVA and 7.3 × 10−17 cm2·s−1 for the one obtained from cross-linked PVA at 3.75 and 3.72 V, respectively. This difference can be explained by the different morphologies and compositions of carbon-based nanocoatings, in particular, by the higher ratio of sp2- to sp3-hybridized carbon in the LNM/C

• dehydration of this polymer, the formation of C=C double bonds is much less probable. Conclusion The various properties of carbonaceous nanocoatings affect both the kinetics of lithium insertion–extraction and the electrochemical properties of LNM/C composites. The presence of carbon results in a decrease of

• laser ablation in liquid has been described in the literature [115][120] and these nanoparticles were frequently adsorbed to implant surfaces as nanocoatings [121]. Even though Ni nanoparticles, and particularly the Ni2+ ions which they release, are known to have an immunogenic effect [122] and are
