Synergistic engineering of CuO/GO/Fe 3 O 4 ternary nanocomposites for enhanced visible-light-driven photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue

CuO nanoparticles (CuO NPs), graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets, and Fe3O4 NPs were synthesized by electrosynthesis, a modified Hummers’ method, and co-precipitation followed by hydrothermal treatment, respectively, to fabricate binary CuO/GO and ternary CuO/GO/Fe3O4 nanocomposites (...

Conspicuous consumption of socially excluded consumers: the roles of self-esteem and face concern

Purpose Social exclusion is hypothesized to motivate conspicuous consumption. However, prior evidence has remained unreconciled. Under the sociometer theory, this study proposes a model to clarify the effects of social exclusion on conspicuous consumption, with negative self-este...
