this research reports a facile ultrasonic approach for the synthesis of iron vanadate (fevo4) nanoparticles with the aid of ammonium metavanadate (nh4vo3) and fe(no3)3.9h2o as the starting reagents without adding external surfactant, capping agent or template in an aqueous solution. furthermore, to examine the solar cell application of as-synthesized iron vanadate (fevo4) nanoparticles, fto/tio...

in this research iron manganese oxide nanocomposites were prepared by co-precipitation, sol-gel and mechanochemical methods by using iron (iii) nitrate, iron (ii) sulfate and manganese (ii) nitrate as starting materials. these nanocomposites were prepared in the presence of various catalyst beds. the polyvinyl pyrrolidon (pvp) was used as a capping agent to control the agglomeration of the nano...

BACKGROUND Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles have been used in clinical applications as a diagnostic contrasting agent. Previous studies showed that iron oxide nanoparticles deposited in the liver and spleen after systemic administration. The present study investigated the effect of iron oxide nanoparticles on antigen-specific immune responses in mice sensitized with the T cell-depende...

Serum iron may be directly measured without protein precipitation, by incubation in an acetate buffer in the presence of a reducing agent and sulfonated bathophenanthroline. Mercaptoacetic and ascorbic acids have proved to be suitable reductants. Values obtained for serum iron by this procedure show excellent correlation with a trichloroacetic acid precipitation technic. Bilirubin interference ...

in recent years, the scientists have focused on nanotecnology and its applications as the most important fields of research and development. the use of nanoparticles offers many advantages, due to their unique size and physical properties. magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles have been used in many fields, because of their unique properties such as large specific surface area and convenient separa...

Effects of heavy metals on the dechlorination of carbon tetrachloride by iron nanoparticles were investigated in terms of reaction kinetics and product distribution using batch systems. Removal of heavy metals and the interaction between heavy metals and iron nanoparticles at the iron surface were also examined. It was found that Cu(II) enhanced the carbon tetrachloride dechlorination by iron n...

Polyethersulfone (PES) based nanocomposite nanofiltration membrane was prepared by immersion precipitation method and casting solution technique using  poly (acrylic acid) grafted-iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4) as hydrophilic filler additives. For this purpose, iron oxide nanoparticles were modified by in situ polymerization of acrylic acid in aqueous solution by potassium persulfate as initi...

High-valent iron species are known to act as powerful oxidants in both natural and synthetic systems. While biological enzymes have evolved to prevent self-oxidation by these highly reactive species, development of organic ligand frameworks that are capable of supporting a high-valent iron center remains a challenge in synthetic chemistry. We describe here the reactivity of an Fe(II) complex th...
