Compressive strength of Portland cement pastes and mortars containing Cu-Zn nano-ferrite

This study is concerned with the synthesizing of Cu-Zn nano-ferrite particles in the laboratory applying simple techniques. The morphology of the synthesized nano-particles was analyzed using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), and the minerals were identified using X-ray diffraction (XRD). The nano material was used to replace 1- 4 percent by weight of Portland cement in […]

Decreasing of water loss and mud cake thickness by CMC nanoparticles in mud drilling

CMC polymer is used as an additive to decrease water loss and mud-cake-thickness in mud drilling. In this study, the effect of CMC and CMC nanoparticles on water loss and mud-cake-thickness in mud drilling is investigated. CMC nanoparticles are made by using of ball milling and their size is measured by Particle size analyzer. CMC […]

Formulation and evaluation of Moxifloxacin hydrochloride ocular nanoparticles

The objective of the present study was to prepare controlled release formulation of Moxifloxacin hydrochloride ocular nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were prepared by solvent displacement method using Eudragit RL 100 as a polymer. Different formulations were prepared by varying the ratios of drug and polymer and varying the ratios of organic and aqueous phase. The formulations […]

Construction of Cu2+-selective electrode and thermodynamic study of the ternary aqueous mixed electrolyte system (CuCl2, KCl, H2O) using nanocomposite-based potentiometric sensor

A nanocomposite membrane Cu2+ ion-selective electrode has been constructed using a new compound ethyl 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-methyl-2-oxopyrimidine-5-carboxylat (ETMOC) as a neutral ionophore. The electrode works properly. It responds to Cu2+ ion with a sensitivity of 29.5 ± 0.2 mV/decade over the range 1.0 × 10−9 to 5.0 × 10−1M at pH 3.0-8.0. The limit of detection was […]

Synthesis of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles trough polyelectrolyte-modified microemulsions

The paper is focused on the formation of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HAp) in polyelectrolyte-modified microemulsions, in a microemulsion template phase consisting of cyclohexane, water, cationic surfactant and cosurfactant, in the presence of Na-polyacrylate (PAA) as an anionic polyelectrolyte. It is shown that PAA, can be incorporated into the individual inverse microemulsion droplets. The microemulsion droplets and […]

Structure of Lattice Strain and effect of sol concentration on the characterization of TiO2-CuO-SiO2 nanoparticles

We report on the synthesis, morphology, chemically and structurally of TiO2-CuO-SiO2 nanostructure with different precursors molar ratio and calcined temperatures. In the present work, ternary reactive powders in the TiO2-CuO-SiO2 systems have been obtained using the sol-gel method, by the simultaneous gelation of all cations. The compounds and other elements change in special chemical and […]

Effect of pH on nanocrystalline Co-ferrite prepared using urea and thiourea fuels by combination of sol-gel auto combustion and ultrasonic irradiation methods

The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of pH on the synthesis of nanocrystallines cobalt ferrite by combination of sol- gel auto combustion and ultrasonic irradiation methods. Two different fuels, urea and thiourea, along with metal nitrates (oxidant) were used to prepare CoFe2O4 powders. The morphology of the resulting powders was investigated. […]

The effect of first order magnetic field in a GaAs/AlAs spherical quantum dot with hydrogenic impurity

In this research, the effect of the first order magnetic field on the ground-state of a centered hydrogenic donor impurity in a GaAs/AlAs spherical quantum dot has been calculated. The perturbation method has been used within the framework of effective mass approximation for these calculations. Overall, the analysis shows that a proper choice of quantum […]

Novel nano cellulosic fibers for remediation of heavy metals from synthetic water

The increased surface area-to-volume ratio of nanoparticles, quantum size effects and the ability to tune surface properties through molecular modification make nanostructures ideal for environmental remediation. The present piece of work reports the preparation and characterization of nano cellulosic fibers (NCFs) with further polymeric reinforcement using vinyl sulphonic acid for the remediation of cationic toxic […]

Synthesis of nanocrystalline BaTiO3 ceramics via hydrothermal condition and structural characterization by HRTEM and SAED

In the present work, we report a suitable approach for the preparation of BaTiO3 nanostructures via the hydrothermal condition using Dolapix ET85 as surfactant. The powders were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning election microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), field emission transmission electron microscopy (FETEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), high resolution transmission electron […]

A mechanical micro molecular mass sensor

One of the bio-sensing mechanisms is mechanical. Rather than measuring shift in resonance frequency, we adopt to measure the change in spring constant due to adsorption, as one of the fundamental sensing mechanism. This study explains  determination of spring constant of a surface functionalized micro machined micro cantilever, which resonates in a trapezoidal cavity-on Silicon […]
