Objective: The aim of this study is to synthesis zinc substituted magnetite nanoparticles with higher values of saturation magnetization and testing its antibacterial activity. Methods: The particles of zinc substituted magnetite with the composition ofZn x Fe 3- x O 4 (х = 0.0, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5) were prepared using…
Carbon fibre reinforced Si3N4 (CF/Si3N4) biomimetic laminated ceramic composites were prepared through rolling, alternate stacking of two-dimensional carbon fibre cloth and Si3N4 green layers, burning out of organic components and hot-press sintering. The effects of the sintering process and sintering additives on the…
The effect of underwater shock wave on different target plates has been studied. An underwater shock wave generator (shock tube) was used to study the interactions between water and different constructed targets which act as shock wave mitigation. Target plates, composed of sandwich of two aluminum sheets with rubber…
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of only a few Pseudomonas species that are able to use acyclic monoterpenoids, such as citronellol and citronellate, as carbon and energy sources. This is achieved by the acyclic terpene utilization pathway (Atu), which includes at least six enzymes (AtuA, AtuB, AtuCF, AtuD, AtuE, AtuG) a…
Lattice-matched II–VI selenide quantum well (QW) structures grown on InP substrates can be designed for emission throughout the visible spectrum. InP has, however, strong visible-light absorption, so that a method for epitaxial lift-off and transfer to transparent substrates is desirable for vertically-integrated devi…
Harmful emissions associated with the use of biodiesel is a serious issue and various fuel additives are being used for the reduction of emissions as well as for the improvement of engine performance. Use of cerium oxide nanoparticles as fuel additive is one of the methods for the reduction of emissions, due to its pe…
A series of graphitic carbon nitride/silver carbonate (g-C3N4/Ag2CO3) rod-like composites with different weight contents of g-C3N4 have been prepared by a facile precipitation method. The g-C3N4/Ag2CO3 rod-like composites exhibited higher photocatalytic activity than pure Ag2CO3 toward degradation of rhodamine B (RhB)…
Sustainable and efficient processes require optimal design and operating conditions. The determination of optimal process routes, however, is a challenging task. Either the models and underlying chemical reaction rate equations are not able to describe the process in a wide ranges of reaction conditions and thus limit…
Mesoporous spheres of calcium silicate hydrate (MS-CSH) have been prepared by an ultrasonic method. Following an earlier work in which we have revealed the interactions between ibuprofen (IBU) and CSH carriers with different morphologies by X-ray absorption near edge structures (XANES) analysis. In the present investi…
The results presented in this study demonstrate that the successive ionic layer deposition (SILD) method for gold nanoparticle formation can be used for surface functionalization of SnO2 films to improve their gas sensing properties. As a result of successive treatments in HAuCl4·nH2O and NaBH4 solutions, gold nanopar…
Polycrystalline titania and Nb:TiO2 thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering. The influence of post-deposition annealing in vacuum and hydrogen atmosphere on the structure, morphology, oxidation states and optical properties was studied by X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, XPS and UV–VIS spectros…
In this article, an acoustic cavitation engineered novel approach for the synthesis of TiO2, cerium and Fe doped TiO2 nanophotocatalysts is reported. The prepared TiO2, cerium and Fe doped TiO2 nanophotocatalysts were characterized by XRD and TEM analysis to evaluate its structure and morphology. Photo catalytic perfo…
Photoluminescent Au nanoparticles are appealing for biosensing and bioimaging applications because of their non-photobleaching and non-photoblinking emission. The mechanism of one-photon photoluminescence from plasmonic nanostructures is still heavily debated though. Here, we report on the one-photon photoluminescence…
Photon harvesting in organic solar cells is highly dependent on the anisotropic nature of the optoelectronic properties of photoactive materials. Here, we demonstrate an efficient approach to dramatically enhance photon harvesting in planar heterojunction solar cells by using a graphene-organic heterointerface. A larg…
Sea stars rely on epidermal secretions to cope with their benthic life. Their integument produces a mucus, which represents the first barrier against invaders; and their tube feet produce adhesive secretions to pry open mussels and attach strongly but temporarily to rocks. In this study, we combined high-throughput se…
C/ZnO/CdS nanocomposite was synthesized using the microemulsion method. Nanocomposite synthesized in the present work was characterized using X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) transmission electron microscope (TEM), diffuse reflectance and photol…
Graphene represents a new class of nanomaterials that has attracted great interest due to its unique electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties. Once disposed in the environment, graphene can interact with biological systems and is expected to exhibit toxicological effects. The ecotoxicity of graphene and its deri…
Pristine graphene, its derivatives, and composites have been widely reported to possess antibacterial properties. Most of the studies simulating the interaction between bacterial cell membranes and the surface of graphene have proposed that the graphene-induced bacterial cell death is caused either by (1) the insertio…
In this work, the inhibitory effect of a commercial anti-scalant (Veolia Hydrex® 9209) on the calcium minerals of carbonate, sulfate and hydrocalumite (Ca/Al) clay deposition from seawater has been investigated. Different concentration factors and anti-scalant doses were studied by analyzing the water hardness and tur…
The pyrolysis of polypropylene to polypropylene wax in a 1-L autoclave has been studied at low temperature. A four-lump kinetics model of pyrolysis of polypropylene to polypropylene wax, gaseous and liquid products is performed, and the kinetic parameters of the conversion of polypropylene into different products are…
