Abstract The transformers oil acts as an insulation well cooling liquid of a transformer. It is very important that the transformer maintained so properties are preserved with time. Petroleum-based mineral widely used in due to its excellent insulating qualities and low cost despite its’ non-biodegradable hazardous property. This paper seeks find alternative by using palm based nanofluids at lo...

We report a novel design, based on a combination of lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles and manganese dioxide nanosheets, for rapid, selective detection of glutathione in aqueous solutions and living cells. In this approach, manganese dioxide (MnO(2)) nanosheets formed on the surface of nanoparticles serve as an efficient quencher for upconverted luminescence. The luminescence can be tu...

recently, the al2o3–tio2–zro2 system has found valuable applications, particularly, as a support for nox storage–reduction (nsr) catalysts. nanocomposite powders were prepared from the co-precipitation method in inorganic precursors. the behaviors of mixed oxide nanoparticles under ultrasonic irradiation, such as dispersion, and crushing were studied. phase transformations, crystallite size, an...

Humans are exposed to nanoparticles in the environment as well as those in nanomaterials developed for biomedical applications. However, the safety and biologic effects of many nanoparticles remain to be elucidated. Over the past decade, our understanding of the interaction of proteins with various nanomaterials has grown. The protein corona can determine not only how nanoparticles interact wit...

The fabrication of low-voltage flexible organic thin film transistors using zirconia (ZrO(2)) dielectric layers prepared via supercritical fluid deposition was studied. Continuous, single-phase films of approximately 30 nm thick ZrO(2) were grown on polyimide (PI)/aluminum (Al) substrates at 250 °C via hydrolysis of tetrakis(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptane-dionato) zirconium in supercritical ca...

Nanoparticles of zirconium(IV) tungstate are prepared by chemical co-precipitation method. Thecharacterizations have been carried out by TG/DTA, DSC, AFM, XRD, FTIR and UV-Vis spectrum. PLspectrum shows two emission bands at 350 nm and at 477 nm. The effects of frequency on the dielectricbehavior and ac electrical conductivity have been studied. The dielectric constant is found to be 119.43 at1...

The oxidation of alcohols to carbonyl compounds in a clean fashion (i.e., with water as a solvent or under solvent-free conditions, and using O2 or H2O2 as the primary oxidant) is the subject of considerable research efforts. A new approach for the selective oxidation of soluble aromatic alcohols in water under mild conditions via a novel composite photocatalyst has been developed. The catalyst...
