The chlorophyll stability in biomimetic environment is the precondition for its potential application in various fields of science and technology. Its unique role, based on the specific and very diverse chemical reactivity, justifies its use in industrial technology, pharmaceutical, food and cosmetic industry, but also in medicine. In this work, two types of liposomes were prepared from saturat...

abstract aims: the application of photocatalytic processes to remove heavy metals in aqueous solutions and industrial wastewater are regarded as extremely effective, clean and without producing waste methods. the goal of the present study was to investigate the photocatalytic activity of zno based on h-zsm-5 zeolite support. materials & methods: zno/h-zsm-5 composite synthesized by impregnation...

A novel iron-containing mesostructured material has been successfully tested for the heterogeneous photo-Fenton degradation of phenolic aqueous solutions using near UV-visible irradiation (higher than 313 nm) at room temperature and close to neutral pH. This catalyst is a composite material that contains crystalline hematite particles embedded into the mesostructured SBA-15 matrix in a wide dis...

tungsten trioxide nanoparticles with two different sizes (average particle sizes about 50 and 80 nm) were prepared by the spray pyrolysis method. photo degradation of congo red (azo dye) showed that photo catalytic property of the as-prepared wo3 nanoparticles with average size about 80 nm is higher than the sample with average size about 50 nm. photo degradation of rhodamine b (cationic triary...

Abstract This article provides a brief review of conjugated polymers and the various typical polymerization reactions exploited by community to synthesise different polyelectrolytes with varied backbone systems. We further discuss detailed emphasises mechanism involved such as photo-induced electron transfer, resonance energy intra-molecular charge transfer in detection or sensing analytes. Owi...

A novel photo-crosslinkable nanogel is prepared from a biodegradable polymer template with intrinsic photoluminescence and high photostability. The fluorescent nanogels display excellent biodegradability and cytocompatibility owed to the facile synthesis scheme involving a solvent-and surfactant-free one-pot reaction, derived entirely from biocompatible monomers citric acid, maleic acid, L-cyst...

Titanium dioxide has been widely used for photo-catalytic and self-cleaning activities. In this study, TiO2 /SiO2 /Co nanocomposite was prepared by sol-gel method in the presence of Polyvinyl Pyrrolidone (PVP), and Hydroxyl Propyl Cellulose (HPC) as additives, and characterized by IR spectra, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive Analytical X-Ray (EDAX), and X-Ray Diffraction (X...

paraloid-mg(oh)2 nanocomposites were synthesized via sonochemical method. nanostructures were characterized by xrd and sem. thermal stability behavior of paraloid filled with magnesium hydroxide was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (tga). the influence of mg(oh)2 nanostructures on the flame retardancy of the paraloid matrix was studied using ul-94 analysis. our results show that the m...

abstract a title, in conveying the meaning of the entitled photo, can act from being a designator to an element which changes the meaning and its message is perceived in different levels of obtaining the photo’s final meaning. therefore, ignoring its role in interpreting the content of work is the same as eliminating a part of photo. various studies have been done centering titling issue, but t...

an investigation was conducted on hemin modified with axial ligand loaded onto magnetic carriers which created a kind of visible-light activated photocatalyst with good magnetic property. this photocatalyst exhibits excellent photo-degradation performance and can be readily reclaimed in the degradation of bis-phenol a (bpa) in aqueous solution under visible light. the catalysts were characteriz...
