this paper discusses the use of box behnken design (bbd) approach to plan the experiments for turning the yield of cvd, thickness and layer number of graphene sheets with an overall objective of optimizing the process to provide higher graphene production volume, fewer layers and thinness structure of graphene. bbd is having the maximum efficiency for an experiment involving four factors such a...

the effect of dry material, glycerol and ratio of water to seed in alyssum homalocarpum films on their thickness, transparency, moisture content, tensile strength, elongation and water vapor permeability was investigated using mixture response surface methods. dry material and glycerol were important factors influencing tensile strength, elongation and water vapor permeability. ratio of water t...

a chemically modified carbon paste electrode with multiwall carbon nanotube (mwcnt) was prepared and used as a sensor for cu2+ ion. the unique chemical and physical properties of cnt have paved the way  to  new  and  improved  sensing  devices.  a  central  composite chemometrics  design  was  applied  for  multivariate  optimization  of the  effects  of  three  significant  parameters  (graphi...

considering the increasingly high attention to quality, promoting the reliability of products during designing process has gained significant importance. in this study, we consider one of the current models of the reliability science and propose a non-linear programming model for redundancy allocation in the series-parallel systems according to the redundancy strategy and considering the assump...

in this research, a rapid, reliable and selective dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (dllme) followed by direct injection of microdroplet to graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (gf-aas) method for the determination of ultra-trace amounts of ag(i) was developed. effect of the important experimental parameters on the extraction efficiency of ag(i) was investigated using response...

background and objective: glucoamylase is a potent starch degrading enzyme whose cheap production has been an area of research. its production by aspergillus niger in solid-state fermentation was studied using dried garden pea peel as a substrate, which enormously reduced the production cost. the current study intended to produce glucoamylase by a cost-effective strategy and exhaustively charac...
