Tin is a naturally occurring element. It is a silver-white, malleable, and somewhat ductile metal. The earth's crust contains about 2–3 ppm tin, comprising 0.0006% of the earth's crust. Major uses of tin include cans and containers, electrical, construction, and transportation. Industrially important tin compounds can be categorized as inorganic (those without a tin-carbon bond) and organic (th...

A sensitive and simple method for simultaneous preconcentration of trace heavy metal ions in some cerealand vegetable samples has been reported. The method is based on the adsorption of Cu2+, Fe3+, Zn2+ and Pb2+on 2-(2-nitro-phenylazo)-naphthalen-1-ol (NPN) loaded on activated carbon (AC). The adsorbed metals onactivated carbon were eluted using 3 ml 4 mol L−1 nitric acid. The influences of the...

Copper nanoparticles were synthesized on multiwall carbon nanotubes, (Cu)/(MWCNTs), based on solvothermal method. The used reagents include MWCNTs, cupric nitrate trihydrate (Cu (NO3)2.3H2O), diethylene glycol (DEG), diethanol amine. Characterization of Cu/MWCNTS nanoparticles was performed by techniques of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction sp...

Catalysts of carbon monoxide oxidation were synthesized by deposition platinum on titanium nitride (TiN). Two substrates with an average particle size 18 and 36 nm obtained hydrogen reduction tetrachloride in a stream microwave plasma nitrogen. The surface the catalysts was studied X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). data us present work indicate presence oxynitride as transition layer betw...

The objective of this study was to develop a combination chemotherapy of implantation of a 3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU)-loaded wafer and intracarotid perfusion of BCNU-loaded nanoparticles for glioma treatment in vivo. BCNU-loaded poly(D,L-lactic acid) (PLA) nanoparticles coated with transferrin (Tf) were prepared by a solvent evapora...

While wogonin has been known to have cytotoxicity against various cancer cells, its bioavailability and cytotoxicity are low due to its low water solubility. Therefore, wogonin-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles were fabricated using a hot-melted evaporation technique. The highest solubility of wogonin was observed in stearic acid. Hence, wogonin-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles were composed of ...

Background & objective: The presence of natural organic matter in water sources creates various problems, especially in common water treatment process. These compounds cause unfavorable taste and odor in water and are among the most important precursors of water disinfection by-products. This study was carried out to evaluate the efficiency of activated carbon (AC) and activated carbon modified...

the goal of this research is to determine the feasibility of loading rifampin into mesoporous silica nanoparticles. rifampin was selected as a model lipophilic molecule since it is a well-documented and much used anti tuberculosis drug. the mesoporous silica nanoparticles were prepared by using tetraethyl ortho silicate and cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (as surfactant); the prepared nanoparti...

biochar and activated carbon, as carbon-rich porous materials, have wide environmental applications. in the present research, rice husk (rh) was used for preparation of biochar at 400, 600, and 800 °c under simple pyrolysis, physically-activated carbon with water steam, chemically-activated carbon with potassium hydroxide (koh), and physiochemically-activated carbon with koh and steam. physical...

carbon activated powdered was prepared from activated carbon derived from olive stone. then byusing the surface methodology, many parameters such as ph, furnace temperature (t), acid ratio,time of activation that affect on the qualities prepared activated carbon produced and its efficiencywere investigated. in addition, the adsorption of congo red onto the activated olive stone carbonactive was...
