Sol-gel derived sulfur modified and pure ZnO nanorod were prepared using zinc chloride and thiocarbamide as raw materials. Prepared nanorods were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry- differential scanning calorimetry (TG–DSC), UV- Vis absorption spectroscopy, Brunauer Emmett Teller (BET) specific surface area and Barrett Joyner Halenda (BJH) pore size distributio...

a simple and green synthetic strategy to prepare bao/tio2-zro2 as a solid base catalyst was reported. these materials with various amounts of bao were prepared by the adsorption method. the physical and chemical properties of bao/tio2-zro2 were investigated by x-ray diffraction, x-ray fluorescence, specific surface area and bjh pore size distribution, ft-ir spectroscopy, scanning electron micro...

this research was conducted in order to study the effect of climate and geology factors on groundwater sources in mahvelat plain. in order to study the groundwater quality and quantity considering groundwater resources including wells and qanats; using groundwater surface, electric conduction (ec) and the total density solution (tds), the maps of groundwater surface fluctuation and quality para...

since heavy metals are considered as one of the major pollutants threatening, the main goal of this study was to bring out the concentrations of pb, zn and mn in the surface sediments off bushehr in the persian gulf. for this purpose, after collection of samples, the concentrations of the three metals in surface sediments were measured through the atomic absorption. the results were compared wi...

Airway constriction is accompanied by folding of the mucosa to form ridges that run axially along the inner surface of the airways. The mucosa has been modeled (R. K. Lambert. J. Appl. Physiol. 71:666-673, 1991) as a thin elastic layer with a finite bending stiffness, and the contribution of its bending stiffness to airway elastance has been computed. In this study, we extend that work by inclu...

aluminum sulfate nano structures have been prepared by solution combustion synthesis using aluminum nitrate nonahydrate (al(no3)3.9h2o) and ammonium sulfate ((nh4)2so4). the resultant aluminum sulfate nano structures were calcined at different temperatures to study thermal  decomposition of aluminum sulfate. the crystallinity and phase of  the as-synthesized and calcined samples were characteri...

S-doped and bare mesoporous TiO2 were prepared using titanium tetraisopropoxide and thiocarbamide as raw materials. Prepared materials were characterized by means of fourier transform infrared spectroscopy FT-IR, thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) specific surface area and Barrett–Joy...

In this study, La–Mn–Cr perovskite-type catalysts were synthesized as LaMnO3,LaCrO3, and LaMn0.5Cr0.5O3 by a microwave-assisted gel-combustion method. They were then calcined at 600oC for 5h in a...
