The effect of surface functionalization with citric acid on the properties magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) Zn x Fe 3-x O 4 (x=0; 0.25; 0.5; 0.75; 1.0) synthesized by hydrothermal method was studied. To study MNPs, X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were used. samples phase state MNPs studied using a physical property measurement system (PPMS) Mossbauer (MS). It ha...

The purpose of this research was to formulate and characterize solid dispersion (SD) of metformin hydrochloride using methocel K100M as the carrier by the solvent evaporation and cogrinding method. The influence of drug polymer ratio on drug release was studied by dissolution tests. Characterization was performed by fourier transform spectroscopy (FTIR), ultraviolet, differential scanning calor...

The remarkable enhancement of the crystalline perfection of benzophenone (BP) crystals induced by liquid crystal (LC) doping has been investigated, and has in turn led to better optical properties. High-resolution X-ray diffractometry demonstrates that the structural grain boundaries present in pure crystals can be eliminated when the crystal is grown with LC doping. Thus, the high alignment ca...

The tooth plates in the living Holocephalan, Chimaera phantasma were studied by various techniques. They consisted of osteodentin and hypermineralized pleromin (kosmin). The degree of mineralization on the latter was as much as in the enameloid of Chondrichthyes and Osteichthyes. Scanning electron microscope observation indicated that the pleromin consisted of large and granular crystals. X-ray...

The influence of hemicelluloses on the aggregation of cellulose in higher plant cell walls was modelled by adding hemicelluloses to cultures of the cellulose producer Acetobacter xylinum. Characterization of the celluloses by X-ray diffractometry showed them to be more like those that occur in higher plants; the coaggregation of the hemicelluloses suggests their occlusion within and between the...

Solid-state M-2-MeO-Bz compounds, where M stands for bivalent Mn, Co, Ni, Cu and Zn and 2-MeO-Bz is 2-methoxybenzoate, have been synthesized. Simultaneous thermogravimetry-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), thermogravimetry, derivative thermogravimetry (TG/DTG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray powder diffractometry, infrared spectroscopy and complexometry were used to charac...

Five new coordination polymers based on Ln3+ and 2,5-diiodoterephthalates (2,5-I-bdc)— {[La2(2,5-I-bdc)3(DMF)4]}·2DMF (1) {[Ln2(2,5-I-bdc)3(DMF)4]} (Ln = La (2), Nd (3), Sm (4) Eu (5))—were prepared characterized by single crystal powder X-ray diffractometry. Luminescent behavior was examined (the highest quantum yield is 4.5%); thermal stability using thermogravimetric analysis.

The thermal stability of an a-Ti film in contact with a d-TiN film in the structure of a TiN/Ti/TiN film stack on SiO2 substrates was studied by in situ sheet resistance (Rs) measurement, Auger electron spectroscopy, glancing angle x-ray diffractometry, cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. It was found that nitrogen dissolv...

The 1 : 1 reaction of MoCl5 with 1,4-Me(SO3Me)C6H4 led to the isolation of crystalline Mo2O2Cl6[μ-κ(2)-1,4-Me(SO3Me)C6H4], 1, in low yields. Attempts to reproduce the synthesis of 1 from MoOCl3/1,4-Me(SO3Me)C6H4 resulted in the good-yield formation of [MoOCl2(μ-Cl)(κ(1)-1,4-Me(SO3Me)C6H4)]2, 2. The 1 : 1 reaction of MoCl5 with 1,4-Me(SO3H)C6H4·H2O selectively yielded Mo4O4Cl8[μ3-1,4-Me(SO3)C6H4...
