We investigate the effect of crystalline structure iron oxide catalysts on oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) n-butene. ODH reactions n-butene were carried out with a fixed-bed flow reactor at 450 °C under but-1-ene (1-C4H8) or cis-but-2-ene (cis-2-C4H8)(mL/min)/O2(mL/min) ratio 5/2.5. Of various oxide-based (α-, β-, γ-, ε-Fe2O3, Fe3O4, ZnFe2O4), ε-Fe2O3 showed highest activity. To best our knowle...

The unique property of phosphate-based glasses and fibres to be completely dissolved in aqueous media is largely dependent on the glass composition. This article focuses on investigating the effect of replacing Na2O with 3 and 5 mol% Fe2O3 on cytocompatibility, thermal and dissolution properties of P2O5-CaO-Na2O-MgO-B2O3 glass system, where P2O5 content was fixed at 45 mol%. The effect of incre...

This study attempted to synthesize onedimensional (1D) coaxial nanotubes of Fe2O3 based on carbon nanotubes (CNT@Fe2O3) via atomic layer deposition (ALD) using ferrocene and oxygen as precursors. Results disclosed that undoped CNTs were suitable for the ALD of Fe2O3 (ALD-Fe2O3) only if they were chemically functionalized, due to their inert surface nature. It was further demonstrated that the e...

The alternating magnetic field was discovered to be capable of inducing the fibrous aggregation of magnetic nanoparticles. However, this anisotropic aggregation may be unfavorable for practical applications. Here, we reported that the adsorption of BSA (bovine serum albumin) on the surfaces of magnetic nanoparticles can effectively make the fibrous aggregation of γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles turn into...

Recently Fe2O3 NPs (iron oxide nanoparticles) have been extensively used in medical imaging and in industry also. As a result, people are increasingly exposed day by day to those nanoparticles. The adverse effect of Fe2O3 NPs is not so significant at lower doses but at higher doses Fe2O3 NPs causes significant damage to cells. The present study investigates the cell signaling mechanism of Fe2O3...

Introduction Magnetic oxide nanomaterials, including iron oxide (Fe3O4 and γ-Fe2O3), spinel ferrites (MFe2O4; M=Mn, Zn, Cr, Ni, or Co) and hexagonal ferrite (MFe12O19, M=Ba and Sr) are attracting much attention due to their wide application potentials in advanced magnets, electronic devices, information storage, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and drug-delivery technology [1-6]. Hence, the sy...

Fe-based nanoparticles were prepared by laser-driven pyrolysis. The assynthesised powder consists of α-Fe and Fe3O4/γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles embedded in a pyrolytic carbon matrix. The crystallite size of 1.8 nm for α-Fe was calculated using the Scherrer formula. The as-synthesised nanopowder was superparamagnetic. The maximum of the zero-field cooling curve was observed at 32 K and the distributio...

In this work, we demonstrate a facile successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction process accompanied by hydrothermal method to synthesize CdS nanoparticle-modified α-Fe2O3/TiO2 nanorod array for efficient photoelectrochemical (PEC) water oxidation. By integrating CdS/α-Fe2O3/TiO2 ternary system, light absorption ability of the photoanode can be effectively improved with an obviously broaden...
