Silica  coated magnetite  nanoparticles were  covalent  grafted with  3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane  to give APTSCMNPs. Reaction of  the resulted nanomaterial with 4-formyl benzo-12-crown-4 ether afforded FB12C4/APTSMNPs  nanocomposite  material  in  which  the  crown ether  moiety  was  attached  through  propyl  chain  spacer. Characterization of  the prepared nanocomposite was performed wit...

V2O5/SiO2 nanoparticles was prepared via an one-pot sol gel method from vanadyl- acetylacetonate and tetraethylorthosilicate in refluxing MeOH, followed by calcination at 700 °C for 2 hours. The resultant nanoparticles was characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), TGA and FTIR techniques. Rapid and efficient ar...
