In this study we demonstrate that self-doping and surface plasmon resonance could endow a wide-band-gap ternary semiconductor BiOCl with remarkable visible light driven photocatalytic activity on the degradation of organic pollutants and photocurrent generation properties. The self-doped BiOCl with plasmonic silver modification was synthesized by a facile one-pot nonaqueous approach and systema...

Objectives . The study aimed to synthesize the multifunctional materials silver-added titanates via reduction of sol-gel fabricating (Fe 2 TiO 5 and NiTiO 3 ) with Jasminium subtriplinerve Blume leaf extract. Methods physicochemical characteristics obtained were determined by X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy, Raman Brunauer–Emmett–Teller specific surface area, scanning el...

The effects of three different mixers, two different feeding orders and nanoclay content on the structure development and rheological properties of PE/nanoclay nanocomposite samples were investigated. Fractional Zener and Carreau–Yasuda models were applied to discuss the melt linear viscoelastic properties of the samples. Moreover, scaling law for fractal networks was used to quantify clay disp...

in this research, the effect of nanoclay on physiochemical, thermal and structural properties of urea formaldehyde resin (uf) was investigated. the prepared gluf resin was mixed mechanically with the 0.5, 1 and 1.5% nanoclay for 5 min at room temperature. the physicochemical properties of the prepared resins were measured according to standard methods. also, the thermal and structural changes i...

Create three-dimensional network of siloxane polymer in the epoxy resin is an appropriate mechanical properties .Dispersion of nanoclay in these coating was prepared by ultrasonication method. Mechanical properties of nanocomposit coatings such as abrasion, hardness and adhesion was increased by addition of nanoclay montmorillonite. Different percentages of nanoclay in coating showed that even ...

Microwave absorbing property of composites containing Ag nanoparticles filled multiwalled carbon nanotube buckypaper (Ag-BP) has been investigated. Buckypaper doped with silver was prepared by direct dispersion and filtration method. From the low temperature resistivity measurement it was found that increasing doping level decreases the electrical conductivity of the buckypaper. 30 wt. % and 40...
