Thanks to their outstanding advantages, nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have recognized in various fields these days. One way to discover extra useful products against typical bacteria (e.g., Staphylococcus epidermidis) is NLCs loaded with essential oils. This paper aims to provide NLCs to encapsulate MA oil and characterize and survey the obtained MA oil-loaded NLCs on […]
It was shown that the structure and particle size of zirconia nanoparticles has been controlled through the homogeneous precipitation process by using templates. Hexamine as the template led to ZrO2 nanoparticles with tetragonal structure, whereas coffee extract favored monoclinic structures. Field Emission Scanning electron microscopy (FeSEM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) measurements, Infrared and Raman analysis […]
In this paper, MgAl2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized by the Sol-gel auto combustion method and were doped with different concentrations of Ni2+ (x= 0, 0.1, 0.05, and 0.03). By this method, a novel photocatalyst which had better decolorization percentages of Congo redcompared to MgAl2O4 was produced. The MgAl2O4 samples were calcinated at 1000 0C. The samples […]
Tin oxide (SnO2)nanoparticles were synthesized by co-precipitation method and the synthesized nanoparticles were annealed at different temperatures for characterization. The powders were investigated with X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and optical spectroscopy. The structural characterization was carried out by X-ray diffraction which confirms the crystalline nature of the films with a tetragonal structure. SEM analysis […]
The design and optimization of nanostructure-based surface acoustic wave (SAW) gas sensor is analyzed based on TiO2 sensing layer and modified electrode dimensions. The sensitivity of the gas sensor depends upon the type of sensing layer used and active surface area obtained by varying the aspect ratio. The performance of the sensor is observed from […]
Magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles coated with thiol functionalized mesoporous silica (TFMS) were prepared and usedas a novel adsorbent for Pb2+ and Ag+ removal. FTIR spectra confirmed the Fe3O4 nanoparticle cores coated with mesoporous silica and indicated the presence of thiol groups on the surface. XRD analyses showed that synthesized adsorbent has a face-centered cubic magnetite phase […]
This study evaluated the light transmission characteristics of a single modular fiber with a cylindrical microchannel using the FDTD method. To this end, various microchannel diameters (4-11μm) were explored. The SMF included a silica core (n=1.4) coated by a nanodiamond layer with a refractive index of 2.42. The impact of Fabry-Perot resonance was evidently detected […]
In this research, a new organic–inorganic hybrid photocatalyst (TCMP@TiO2) was successfully synthesized through supporting tetrachloromenthoxyphosphor (III) (TCMP) on titanium dioxide (TiO2) for elimination of methyl violet (MV) color from water media. The hybrid inorganic-organic catalyst of this nanocomposite was characterized by 1H-NMR, 31P-NMR, 13C-NMR, UV-Vis, IR, SEM, and mass spectrometry methods. The maximum dye elimination […]
Magnetic nanoparticles have received much attention in synthesizing organic compounds due to their unique properties such as high contact surface, recyclability, and easy separation. In this study, Rice husk ash (RHA), an agriculture waste, was used as a silica source for MCM-41 synthesis. Ag2S/RHA-MCM-41 nanocomposite synthesized and characterized with FT-IR, SEM, and XRD. Prepared nanocomposite […]
The electrical and thermal properties of polymer composites are enhanced by the incorporation of nano and micron fillers. Reported work on polymer composites with the combination of micro and nano sized fillers like silicon dioxide, alumina, silicon carbide, molybdenum disulphide, and graphite are limited. In this investigation, the AC conductivity of composites with the combination […]
