A bio-based magnetic nano-catalyst (Fe3O4@nano-dextrin/Ti(IV)) was synthesized via the preparation of Fe3O4@nano-dextrinas magnetic support and then its treatment with titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4). The properties of this catalyst were characterized by different kinds of techniques such as FT-IR, FESEM, TEM, ICP, XRF, VSM and TGA....

A superparamagnetic graphene oxide/Fe₃O₄/l-proline nano hybrid that was obtained from the non-covalent immobilization of l-proline on graphene oxide/Fe₃O₄ nanocomposite was used as a new magnetically separable catalyst for the efficient synthesis of 4,4'-(arylmethylene)bis(1H-pyrazol-5-ol) derivatives. The prepared heterogeneous catalyst was characterized using FTIR, TGA, DTG, XRD, TEM, SEM, an...

We report a new strategy towards the control of carbon nanotube (CNT) structure and continuous fibre formation using a floating catalyst direct spinning CVD process. In the procedures used to date, a sulphur promoter precursor is added to significantly enhance the rate of CNT formation in the floating catalyst synthesis. Within the reaction zone, the rapidly grown nanotubes self-assemble into b...

an efficient and green protocol for the synthesis of pyrazoles derivatives by one-pot reaction of different 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with hydrazines/hydrazides has been developed using nano-sulfated zirconia, nano-structured zno, nano-g-alumina and nano-zsm-5 zeolites, as the catalyst. the optical properties of the nano-structured catalysts and organic molecules were studied. the advantages of ...

A highly active and stable nano structured Pt/Mg1-xNixO catalysts was developed by a simple co-precipitation method. The obtained Pt/Mg1-xNixO catalyst exhibited cubic structure nanocatalyst with a size of 50-80 nm and realized CH4 and CO2 conversions as high as 98% at 900°C with excellent stability in the dry reforming of methane. The characterization of catalyst was performed using various ki...

easily prepared nanozno was found to be as an efficient catalyst in the synthesis of 1,4-dhps via four-component reaction of 1,3-dicarbonyls, aldehydes and ammonium carbonate in water at 60 °c. the prepared nanozno was characterized by xrd and ft-ir analysis, while the determined specific surface area of nano catalyst by bet method was 33 m2/g.

12-Tungstophosphoric acid supported on silica-coated magnetic nano particles was prepared and characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. Acidity of the catalysts was measured by potentiometric titration with n-butylamine. Catalytic activity of the prepared sample was evalu...

The quantum confinement model, which assigns some of the luminescence features in porous silicon to size quantization in Si nano-crystallites, also predicts quantization of both the conduction and valence bands into sub-levels. In order to resolve this effect we have used a new experimental technique called “photo-induced infrared absorption spectroscopy”. Here, a pump, visible laser, optically...

Nanotechnology approaches offer the potential for creating new optical imaging agents with unique properties that enable uses such as combined molecular imaging and photo-thermal therapy. Ideal preparations should fluoresce in the near-infrared (NIR) region to ensure maximal tissue penetration depth along with minimal scattering and light absorption. Due to their unique photophysical properties...
