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...

aluminum sulfate nano structures have been prepared by solution combustion synthesis using aluminum nitrate nonahydrate (al(no3)3.9h2o) and ammonium sulfate ((nh4)2so4). the resultant aluminum sulfate nano structures were calcined at different temperatures to study thermal  decomposition of aluminum sulfate. the crystallinity and phase of  the as-synthesized and calcined samples were characteri...

BACKGROUND CuO is one of the most important transition metal oxides due to its captivating properties. It is used in various technological applications such as high critical temperature superconductors, gas sensors, in photoconductive applications, and so on. Recently, it has been used as an antimicrobial agent against various bacterial species. Here we synthesized different sized CuO nanoparti...

An innovative route is reported to fabricate nano-particles in aqueous solution from oxyfluoride glass by the thermal induction and corrosion treatment in this letter. The investigations of X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope based on nano-particles in glass ceramics (GCs) and aqueous solution indicate that the nano-particles formed in glass matrix during the thermal inductio...

abstract in respect to nano-technological studies and physiological and biochemical lesions of these materials on aquatic animals, in this study we examine the toxicity effects of nano-zinc oxide (zno nps) on hematological indices of common carp (cyprinus carpio). lc50 of nano zinc oxide was determined according to the mortality at 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours, respectively. during separate experime...

In this study, the synthesis, characterization and controlled release behavior of new Hollow Silica Nano particles (HSNPs) and Magnetic Silica Nano Particles (MSNPs) were studied. Magnetic Silica Nano particles (MSNPs), as drug delivery vehicles, were synthesized through the coating of Fe3O4 nano-crystals with silica layers. The HSNPs were obtained by removal of Fe3O4 templates with hydrochlori...

in this investigation the silicate nano structure of mcm-41 has been used for the production of nanofluid.the particles have negligible heat conductivity and therefore by their dispersion in a base fluid likewater, it is possible to study the increase of heat conductivity due to the brownian motion effects. in thiswork a suitable apparatus for the measurement of heat conductivity has been built...
