physical, mechanical and structural properties of poly(lactic acid) (pla)-basedfilms containing different amounts of nanoclay and cellulose prepared bysolvent casting method were examined. physical properties including thickness,transparency and color did not change significantly with addition of nanoparticles to the polymer matrix. x-ray diffraction (xrd) patterns showed that pure pla has a se...

where the peak shapes were described by a pseudo-Voigt function and the background was modeled with an 6-term polynomial. Additionally, the PXRD patterns obtained at room temperature and 100 K were analyzed by Le Bail refinement using the GSAS and EXPGUI software, 2,3 where the peak shapes were described by a pseudo-Voigt function (CW profile function 3) and the background was modeled with an 4...

an aqueous extract of pimpinella anisum was used for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles by bio reduction of an aqueous solution of silver nitrate. silver nanoparticles were characterized by uv–vis spectrometry, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir), x-ray diffraction (xrd) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (sem) and energy-dispersive x-ray analysis (edax). the increase in abs...

ZnS  nanoparticles  were  synthesized  via  a  simple  surfactant  free microwave  route.  In  this  synthesis, thioacetamide  was  used  as sulfur  source.  The effects  of different  parameters  such  as  type of zinc precursor,  time  and  power  of  irradiation  on  the  morphology and  particle  size  of  the  products  have been  investigated.  The nanostructures  were  characterized  by ...

this paper is the first multi-scale characterization of the fluidize-dried gum extracted from the fresh fruits of the plant abelmoschus esculentus. it describes the physical, thermal, sorptional and functional properties of this natural gum. elemental analysis, scanning electron microscopy (sem), particle size analysis, x-ray powder diffraction (xprd), thermo-gravimetric analysis (tga), differe...
