Green biosynthesis of silver - functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotube (Ag/FMWCNT) nanohybride from silver nitrate solution using water extract of Satureja hortensis L as reducing agent and FMWCNT as anchoring agent at room condition was succesfully carried out. Water-soluble organics present in the plant materials were mainly responsible for the reduction of silver ions to nano-sized Ag par...

in this article, zno and zno:mn nanoparticles prepared by reverse micelle method. the various crystalline properties of these nanoparticles such as size, d-spacing, strain, stress, dislocation density and texture coefficient have been calculated with the help of xrd spectrum. the xrd results indicated that the synthesized zno and zno:mn nanoparticles have a pure wurtzite (hexagonal phase) struc...

5-aminosalicylic acid (5-asa) is currently prepared by electrochemical reduction of 5-nitrosalicylic acid (5-nsa) in acidic media. in this work, electrolytic reduction of 5-nsa in alkaline media is presented. reactionconditions and parameters such as anode and cathode electrodes, electrolyte type, reaction time, temperature,current, and the ph for isolation of product are investigated. the yiel...

highly crystalline and pure lithium metasilicate (li2sio3) and lithium disilicate (li2si2o5) nanomaterials were synthesized by hydrothermal method and characterized by pxrd technique. the changes in the morphology and particle size of the synthesized nanomaterials with reaction time were investigated using sem technique. the uv-vis and photoluminescence spectra of the compounds were studied. th...

A chelating agent, 4-benzyloxybenzaldehyde-4-methyl-3-thiosemicarbazone (BBMTSC), containing sulphur and nitrogen donor atoms was synthesized and applied as a ligand for the chelation of Cd(II). Both the BBMTSC and its Cd(II) complex were characterized by elemental analysis, UV-Vis absorption spectra, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), mass spectra, nuclear magnetic resonance spec...

Experimental Section Solvents and reagents were purchased from Merck and used as received. 1,6,7,12Tetrachloroperylene-3,4:9,10-tetracarboxylic acid bisanhydride was obtained from BASF. N,N'-Didodecylperylene-3,4:9,10-tetracarboxylic acid bisimide 2 was synthesized according to the literature. NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker DRX 400 spectrometer using the proton signal of TMS as internal ...

The synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles has attracted immense interest because of their unique properties and potential applications in optoelectronic devices. ZnO as a wide band gap semiconductor with large excitation energy becomes one of the most important functional material with near UV-emission, optical transparency, electric conductivity and piezoelectricity. ZnO nanoparticles were prepared b...

a new approach for the synthesis of prussian blue nanoparticles using the cationic surfactant cetyl pyridinium chloride (cpc) as capping agent has been developed in the present work. powder x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, uv–vis absorption spectra, and ir spectroscopy were employed to characterize the product. the tem image showed that the prussian blue nanoparticles with d...

A novel dot-like Cu2O-loaded TiO2/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanoheterojunction was synthesized via UV light reduction for the first time. Cu2O with size of ca. 5 nm was deposited on rGO sheet and TiO2 nanosheets. The products were characterized by infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectrum, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra, XPS techniques, photoluminescence spectra. The results demonstrated tha...
