in this study, pyrite was produced by hydrothermal precipitation from the reaction between feso4 and na2s2o3 at high pressure and high temperature in a stirred reactor. the solid product was purified by means of solvent extraction to remove sulfur. powder was characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and thermal analyses. results indicated that pyrite was prod...

in this research, mechanical alloying was used to produce ti-50al, ti-45al-5cr and ti-45al-5w (at%) alloys. the effect of ternary addition (cr and w) on microstructure and production efficiency of tial alloy were investigated. alloying was performed in a planetary mill and the milling time varying from 5 to 70h. the structural evaluation in these powders was done by x-ray diffraction (xrd) tech...

in this work, the synthesis of porous structure of cadmium oxide with multilayered sheet-like morphology in nano-meter size using adipic acid as soft template by solvothermal/thermal decomposition process is reported. chemical analyses exhibited that the formation of porous sheet-like structure is originated from bidentate coordination mode of adipate units to cd-center. it was found that the c...

in this paper, a nanostructured modified electrode was fabricated by incorporating of 2,2′-[1,9-nonanediylbis(nitriloethylidyne)]-bis-hydroquinone (nnh) as a newly synthesized modifier and tio2 nanoparticles to the carbon paste (mtcpe) and then was used for the electroanalysis of epinephrine (ep). the electrochemical studies were carried out by using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and di...

wileyonlinelibrary.com internal/external surface sites of the nanostructure. Thus, the big challenge is in the nanostructure architecture where all of these parameters need to be optimized simultaneously. For the case of a supercapacitor, the nanostructure material is used as the framework to store and transport charges between two parallel electrodes. A conventional supercapacitor usually cons...

a straightforward approach for the extraction of the quercetin was carried out by a nanoporous molecularly imprinted acrylic acid-based network copolymer as asolid sorbent. this technique involves a molecular template (quercetin) which is surrounded by functional monomers and are subsequently co-polymerized in the presence of an excess of the cross linkers. in this process, three-dimensional bi...

Background: Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) exhibit very unique physiochemical and optical properties, which now are extensively studied in a range of medical diagnostic and therapeutic applications. AuNPs can be used for cancer clinical treatment with minimal invasion. On the other hand, curcumin is a polyphenol derived from turmeric which is used for medical purposes due to its anti...

In this study, we report formation of weblike fibrous nanostructure and nanoparticles of magnetic neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) via femtosecond laser radiation at MHz pulse repetition frequency in air at atmospheric pressure. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis revealed that the nanostructure is formed due to aggregation of polycrystalline nanoparticles of the respective constituent mate...

Distinct electromagnetic properties can emerge from the three-dimensional (3D) configuration of a plasmonic nanostructure. Furthermore, the reconfiguration of a dynamic plasmonic nanostructure, driven by physical or chemical stimuli, may generate a tailored plasmonic response. In this work, we constructed a 3D reconfigurable plasmonic nanostructure with controllable, reversible conformational t...

Dendrite-like Co(3)O(4) nanostructure, made up of many nanorods with diameters of 15-20 nm and lengths of 2-3 μm, has been successfully prepared by calcining the corresponding nanostructured Co-8-hydroxyquinoline coordination precursor in air. The Co(3)O(4) nanostructure was evaluated as an electrochemical sensor for H(2)O(2) detection and the results reveal that it has good linear dependence a...
