Response surface strategy in the synthesis of Fe3O4 nanoparticles

In the present study, Fe3O4 super paramagnetic nanoparticles were synthesized via co-precipitation of Fe3+ and Fe2+ chloride salts in the presence of ammonia Solution. The product was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), and zeta–potential particle size distributing methods. The synthetic procedure of nano iron oxides were optimized using modern […]

Galactosylated Albumin nanoparticles bearing Cimetidine for effective management of Acetaminophen induced hepatotoxicity

In the present study, an attempt was made to develop galactosylated albumin nanoparticles of Cimetidine for treatment of Acetaminophen induced hepatotoxicity. By developing the galactosylated nanoparticulated delivery of Cimetidine the required action of drug at the target site i.e at liver can be provided. The advantage of targeting helps to reduce the systemic side effects […]

Synthesis and characterization of novel nanocomposite Chitosan membranes for Ethanol dehydration

Polyacrylonitril (PAN)-supported chitosan (CS) nanocomposite membranes were prepared by cross-linking the CS with 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane (APTEOS) via sol-gel method. Pervaporative performances of the CS-SiO2/PAN membrane for dehydration of aqueous alcohol solutions were investigated. From SEM cross-sectional images of the membrane, the spongy pores and the finger-like pores were found in cortex and intermediate layer. The PAN […]

Enhanced electrical conductivity properties of Graphene Oxide nanocomposites functionalized with Polyvinyl Alcohol

We report the synthesized and preparation of graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite functionalized with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with different concentration of graphene oxide 0, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5 and 4% weight. This synthesized confirmed by FT-IR. The electrical conductivity of the all nanocomposite was measured at 25°C for all samples and the resulted showed […]

Molecular dynamics simulation of a binary mixture lubricant for use in hard disk interfaces

In Hard Disk Drives (HDD), it is necessary to decrease the Flying Height (FH) between the head and the disk (currently, FH is around 3-5 nm) so as to increase recording densities. Retaining the solid lubricant has become a difficult proposition owing to intermittent contact between the surfaces. ZTMD and Z are used as solid […]

The great potential of nanomaterials in drilling & drilling fluid applications

The continuous development of global economy with decreasing in available hydrocarbon sources and increasing discovery and extraction costs due to decrease in-situ oil and gas reservoir, displays the necessity of using new techniques for the improve rate of penetration and productivity in well. Nanotechnology has already contributed significantly to technological advances in the energy industries. […]

Effect of asymmetric quantum dot rings in electron transport through a quantum wire

The electronic conductance at zero temperature through a quantum wire with side-connected asymmetric quantum ring (as a scatter system) is theoretically studied using the non-interacting Hamiltonian Anderson tunneling method. In this paper we concentrate on the configuration of the quantum dot rings. We show that the asymmetric structure of QD-scatter system strongly influences the amplitude […]

Effect of annealing and UV illumination on properties of nanocrystalline ZnO thin films

ZnO thin films with preferred orientation along the (002) plane were prepared onto the glass substrates by the sol-gel spin coating method for different post- annealing temperatures. The XRD study confirms that the thin films grown by this method have good crystalline hexagonal wurtzite structure. The optical band gap of the samples was determined from […]

Photodegradation of reactive red 222 using TiO2 nanostructured thin films prepared by modified sol-gel method

In this paper, a modified sol-gel method using peroxotitanic acid sol (PTA) was applied for the preparation of TiO2 nanostructured thin films on glass plates. The peroxotitanic acid sol was synthesized using titanium isopropoxide, isopropylalchol, H2O and hydrogen peroxide. TiO2 films were then calcined at 500oC and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron […]

Two component reaction for the synthesis of Quinolines in the presence of γ-Al2O3 and Cu/ZnO nanoparticles

Two-component reaction of 2-aminobenzophenones with acetylenic esters in the presence of γ-Al2O3 and Cu/ZnO as suitable heterogeneous catalysts has been studied. Nano γ-Al2O3 and Cu/ZnO showed high activities when used as surface catalysts for the synthesis of quinoline derivatives. After completion of the reaction, the catalyst was recovered and reused several times under the same […]
