In this study, a high energy planetary ball milling technique was used to synthesize nano-crystalline Mo-Cu alloys. Molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) and copper oxide (CuO) were used as the starting materials. Carbo-thermal co-reduction of mixed Mo and Cu oxides powders was done with milling followed by a heat treatment at a high temperature. Differential thermal analysis/thermogravimetric (DTA/TG) wa...

We have developed a two-dimensional (2D) non-uniform model to study the space charge limited (SCL) current injection into a trap-filled solid of nano-contact, such as organic materials and dielectrics. Assuming a solid of length D with a contact of width W, the enhancement over the well-known 1D uniform model is calculated as a function of W/D for different material properties, such as the diel...

Diopside (DS) is a monoclinic pyroxene mineral with composition MgCaSi2O6. Lately,diopside (DS) has beenintroduced as a bioceramics due to its best bioactivity and biocompatibility. It has a good strength andtoughness than those of hydroxyapatite (HT). In this project, bioactivity of diopside (DS) powder wereevaluated and investigated. For synthesized of diopside (DS) powder, ...

Steroid-based liquid crystal polymers and co-polymers have come a long way, with new significant advances being made every year. This paper reviews some of the recent key developments in steroid-based co-polymers. It covers structure–property relationship between cholesterol sterol-based compounds their corresponding polymers, influence chemical structure synthesis conditions on crystalline beh...

Molecular combinatory computing makes use of a small set of chemical reactions that together have the ability to implement arbitrary computations. Therefore it provides a means of “programming” the synthesis of nanostructures and of controlling their behavior by programmatic means. We illustrate the approach by several simulated nano-assembly applications, and discuss a possible molecular imple...

Nano-structuring of the surface caused by adsorption of molecules or atoms and by the reaction of surface atoms with adsorbed species are reviewed from a chemistry viewpoint. Self-assembly of adsorbed species is markedly influenced by weak mutual interactions and the local strain of the surface induced by the adsorption. Nano-structuring taking place on the surface is well explained by the noti...

synthesis of bafe12o19 magnetic nano particles via precipitation in different ph conditions have been reported. the certain molar ratio of fe/ba = 12 selected and sodium hydroxide was used as a precipitant agent. x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and vibrating sample magnetometer (vsm) were used to consider the structural, morphological and magnetic properties of bariu...

The nano-crystalline nickel-zinc ferrite was prepared via chemical synthesis. Zinc nitrate, nickel nitrate, iron nitrate hydrate, citric acid and ethylene glycol were used as precursor materials. Crystallization behavior of the precursor was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Nanoparticle phases can change amorphous to spinel ferrite depending on the calcination temperature and crystallite siz...

The wide use of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) in industrial applications requires the investigation of their effects on human health. In this context, we investigated the effects of nanosized and bulk titania in two different crystalline forms (anatase and rutile) in vitro. By colony forming efficiency assay, a dose-dependent reduction of the clonogenic activity of Balb/3T3 mouse fi...
