iron oxide, [ 10 ] zinc oxide, [ 11 ] cadmium selenide, [ 12 ] gold [ 13 ] and others in nanocomposites is a promising approach to introduce new functionalities to a polymer such as tunable refractive index, magnetism, surface hardness, UV absorption, etc. However, aggregation of nanoparticles is commonly encountered, leading to unsatisfactory performance of nanocomposites and frustrating effor...

In this paper we report synthesis of Fe2TiO5-5A zeolite (Z5A) nanocomposites with 5%, 10% and 20% weight percent of Fe2TiO5 in 5A zeolite in stearic acid media after calcination of the gel samples obtained at 600-900°C for 2 hrs. The powder X-RAY diffraction (XRD) patterns have been used for characterization of the prepared samples. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images and X-ray Energy...

The composite powders of barium-magnesium ferrite were prepared using sol-gel auto-combustion and microwave methods. The crystal structure and the shape of nanocomposites have been compared. X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) were used to investigate the structural, morphological and magnetic properties of nanopowder. The formatio...

Environmental contamination, which is growing around the world, is a serious problem can not to be neglected. Among all contaminations, water pollution is a major problem. Azo dyes are one of the largest groups of pollutants found in the drinking water, coming from, and the food and textile industries. TiO2/Fe3O4 and TiO2/Fe2O3 nanocomposites with various ratios were synthesized by an ultrasoni...

Magnetic nanoparticles are a highly valuable substrate for the attachment of homogeneous inorganic and organic containing catalysts. This review deals with the very recent main advances in the development of various nanocatalytic systems by the immobilisation of homogeneous catalysts onto magnetic nanoparticles. We discuss magnetic core shell nanostructures (e.g., silica or polymer coated magne...

Effects of calcination temperatures varying from 400 to 1000°C on structural and magnetic properties of nanocomposites formed by Co-ferrite dispersed in the sol-gel silica matrix using tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl) orthosilicate (THEOS) as water-soluble silica precursor have been investigated. Studies carried out using XRD, FT-IR, TEM, STA (TG-DTG-DTA) and VSM techniques. Results indicated that magn...
