چکیده

Dimesitylbisanthene (1) oxidizes to the corresponding bay region quinone (2) on standing in solutions exposed to air and ambient light. It is anticipated that hydrogen-terminated carbon nanotubes with bay regions on the rim are likely to exhibit even greater sensitivity toward air oxidation.

Electrochemical Sensing of H2S Gas in Air by Carboxylated Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes

The electrochemical sensor for detecting hydrogen sulfide was fabricated. H2S gas molecules pass through polytetrafluoroethylene membrane with 0.22 mm pore size. Carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-COOH) were used to fabricate working and counter electrodes. It can be seen from Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) images of the working electrode that...

Petroleum hydrocarbon assessment in the wastewaters of petrochemical special economic zone and sediment benchmark calculation of the coastal area - northwest of the Persian Gulf

Petrochemical industries can potentially impact the environment due to their activities and products. This case study has considered adverse effects of petrochemical industries that are located inside the PETZONE with respect to the presence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and total petroleum hydrocarbon in wastewater effluents. The average concentrations of ∑PAHs group I and II were lower ...

Exceptionally high tumor-initiating activity of benzo(c)phenanthrene bay-region diol-epoxides on mouse skin.

Benzo(c)phenanthrene [B(c)Ph], its three metabolically pos sible frans-dihydrodiols, and the diastereomeric bay-region diol-epoxides derived from frar>s-3,4-dihydroxy-3,4-dihydrobenzo(c)phenanthrene were tested for tumor-initiating activity on mouse skin. A single topical application of 0.4 or 2.0 /imol of compound was followed seven days later by twice-weekly applications of the tumor promotor...
