In this paper, synthesised nanometre sized hydroxyapatite (nano-HAP) powders composed of spherical 30 ± 5 nm part icles were compacted and sintered at temperatures ranging from 650 to 1250°C to form ceramics of varying porosity and mechanical strength. The size, crystalline structure and morphology of both the synthesised nano-HAP particle powders and the compacted and sintered ceramics were in...

In this study, the optical properties of a TiO2 photocatalyst were enhanced with various impregnations of Er3+ and Ni2+ separately, using the impregnation method as photocatalysts for the direct solar photolysis degradation of chloroxylenol. The synthesized Er/TiO2 and Ni/TiO2 catalysts were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy...

This study describes the application of novel chemistry methods for the removal of dye by Nano structured titanium oxide (TiO2) photo catalysts. Such materials can be applied in the development of efficient photo catalytic systems for the treatment of water. Nano crystalline TiO2 was synthesized by Sol-Gel route using titanium tetraisopropoxide as a metal precursor. The catalysts were character...

The purpose of this study is to synthesize nano-grained Calcium Hydroxyapatite (HAp) through slip casting technique. For this, hydroxyapatite powders were synthesized using two methods, wet chemical method and Ammoniacal method. The as-prepared powders and calcined powders were characterized using XRD, FTIR, to study the phases of the powders. The hydroxyapatite powder calcined at 1000°C for 2h...

The SDS, PEG and CTAB roofed MgO nano powders were synthesized by co-precipitation method.  The sintered nano powders was shown Fm-3m space group with cubic phase obtained by the XRD pattern. The lattice strain was calculated to be used Williamson-Hall equations (W-H). The formation of Mg-O bond and hydroxyl radicals on the surface were confirmed by the FTIR analyses. The TEM revealed that the ...

Electrodeposition is a simple and economic technique for precision coating of different shaped substrates with pure metal, alloy or composite films. Dc electrodeposition was used to produce Cr, Co-Cr and Co-Cr/TiO2 nano-composite coatings from Cr(III) based electrolytes onto 316L SS substrates. The effects of TiO2 nanoparticles concentration on co-deposition of these particles along with Cr con...

the present work is focused on the degradation of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol in aqueous solution containing nano titanium dioxide, hydrogen peroxide and the combination of nano-tio2/h2o2. the effect of experimental parameters, such as the amount of nano- tio2 concentration of h2o2, initial concentration of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol and ph on the reaction was investigated. experimental data obtained un...

In this paper, nano-TiO2lubricating fluid was chosen as an advanced rolling lubricant to investigate its effect on the hot rolled surface and metallographic structure of SS41 steel strips. The tribological performances of nano-TiO2 lubricating fluid were measured by a four-ball tribotester. The hot rolling experiments under different lubrication conditions were carried out by a four-high rollin...
