Hydrophobic silica titanium nanoparticles (STNPs) were successfully synthesized by the sol-gel process using liquid modification. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) studies were demonstrated the attachment of titanium on the silica surface. Titanium content enhanced the agglomeration of particles as shown in topography results. The N2 adsorption-desorption followed Type (V) isotherm indicating the […]
A novel electrochemical sensor was proposed for the determination of amitriptyline based on the copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles modified graphite screen-printed electrode. CuO nanoparticles were used to enhance the surface area of the electrode and then improve the sensitivity of the electrochemical sensor. Amitriptyline electrochemical response characteristics of the modified electrode in a phosphate buffer […]
Present paper examines the effect of acid type and hydrolysis conditions on morphology, size, yield and crystallinity of produced cellulose nanocrystal (CNC). Cellulose obtained from waste office paper was hydrolyzed under the same conditions by Maleic acid (MA) and Sulfuric Acid (SA) in separate treatments. Also this cellulose was hydrolyzed under different timing and temperature […]
Copper oxide (CuO) nanostructures are of particular interest because of their interesting properties and promising applications in batteries, super capacitors, solar cells, gas sensors, bio sensors, nano fluids and catalysis. In Recent past, more efforts have been received to design materials with different properties which is dependent on morphology. In this work cupric oxide nano […]
The glass surface modification with 3-(mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane (MPTS), gold nano-particles (GN) and guanine rich single strand DNA (ss-DNA) was utilized as a novel and efficient platform for sensing trace concentration of methylene blue (MB) by an inexpensive spectrophotometric method. Methylene Blue (MB) can interact with the guanine base of single strand DNA and absorbed onto […]
Successful synthesis of the stable metal-free two-dimensional polymer graphitic carbon-nitride with remarkable properties has made it as one of the most promising nanostructures in many novel nanodevices, especially photocatalytic ones. Understanding the mechanical properties of nanostructures is of crucial importance. Thus, this study employs density functional theory (DFT) to obtain the mechanical properties of graphene-like […]
ZnO- nanoparticles with an average particle size of 24 nm were successfully synthesized using the microwave assisted sol- gel technique.
