The aim of this study was to assess the morphology and chemical composition changes induced by chronic intoxication with low doses of sodium fluoride (NaF) in mice enamel. Twenty-one C57BL/6 male mice of the same age were randomly divided into a control group and 2 experimental groups (n = 7). The experimental groups were treated with 25ppm and 50ppm respectively of NaF. NaF was supplied throug...

this study reports the simple process to synthesis of cuo/cui nanocomposite in a non-aqueous solution. in the conducted experiments cui and dimethyl sulfoxide (dmso) were used as the precursors. moreover, dmso had role of solvent and ligand simultaneously. in experiments the effects of oleic acid as the particles size modifier, temperature and concentration were investigated. crystalline struct...

This work aims to clarify the influence of aging temperature and time on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Ti­Nb alloy for biomedical applications. The ingot of Ti­27Nb­2Ta­3Zr alloy was subjected to the arc melting, hot-forging and heat treatment respectively. Microstructure characterization was investigated by optical microscope (OM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electr...

The charge transfer complexes between phthalocyanine as a donor and benzoquinone derivatives as acceptors vis., 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4benzoquinone (DDQ), p-chloranil (CHL) and chloranilic acid (CHLA) were synthesis and investigated by using some modern techniques such as; ICP and Nujol mull technique using spectrophotometer, that after identification and using synthesis and spectral metho...

The AgBr loaded TiO2 catalyst was prepared by a feasible approach with AgBr and tetraisopropyl orthotitanate and characterized by BET surface area measurement, diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectra (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM) analysis. The results of characteri...

Nano-sized γ-Al2O3 was synthesized successfully by a simple method using Al2(SO4)3·18H2O as aluminium source and in the presence of polyethylene glycol (PEG 2000). FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) were used to characterize the structure and morphology of synthesized powder. The results showed that PEG playe...

Zeolite FAU type-Y is one of the most studied framework of all zeolites, and has been used as catalysts for number of reactions in the refinery and petrochemical industry. In this research, nanocrystalline zeolite Y was synthesized by hydrothermal method. The crystal size of zeolite Y is influenced by temperature, aging time, alkalinity, and water content. The synthesized zeolite NaY is identif...

A series of Bismuth doped Cobalt nanoferrites of chemical composition CoBixFe2-xO4 (where x = 0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 & 0.25) were prepared by sol-gel combustion method and calcinated at 600 ̊C. The structural and morphological studies were carried out by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy...

Although polymerized aniline (polyaniline, PANI) with and without iodine (I₂) doping has already been extensively studied, little work has been done on the synthesis of PANI films using atmospheric pressure plasma (APP) deposition. Therefore, this study characterized pure and I₂-doped PANI films synthesized using an advanced APP polymerization system. The I₂ doping was conducted ex-situ and usi...
