nanotechnology has been advanced since the last decades. among all nanomaterials that have been developed, nanosilver is the most frequently used nanoparticles. its release into natural water bodies is inevitable due to its broad applications. nanosilver (nag) was prepared via tollens method using. the morphology, size distribution and average size of the obtained nag was characterized using tr...

introduction: the efficacy of erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (er:yag) laser for root debridement in comparison with curettes has been the subject of many recent investigations. considering the possibility of chemical and ultra-structural changes in root surfaces following laser irradiation, this study sought to assess the effects of scaling and root planing (srp) with curettes and er:yag ...

in this research, the effect of catalyst type on the cnts synthesis was investigated. the carbonnanotubes (cnts) were produced on stainless steel substrates and two of catalyst with differentcharacteristics by using thermal chemical vapor deposition (tcvd) method. the catalysts have theimportant role for the growth carbon nanotubes (cnts). acetylene gas (c2h2) diluted by nh3 wasused as the reac...

introduction: the aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the setting time, flow, film thickness, solubility, radiopacity and characterization analysis of three epoxy resin based sealers including two experimental sealers and ah-26. methods and materials: five samples of each material were evaluated for setting time, flow, film thickness, solubility and radiopacity according to iso 6876 stan...

According to UV-visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction spectrometry, dynamic light scattering, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, nano-sized manganese oxides are proposed as active catalysts for water oxidation in the reaction of some manganes...

the photocatalytic coatings were prepared via incorporating the modified titania nanoparticles into epoxy-based inorganic-organic hybrid coatings. titania nanoparticles were first synthesized from tetra-n-butyl titanate using sol-gel methods by two different calcination treatments, i.e., in mild condition (80°c) and 500°c. the formed anatase nanoparticles were further modified as titania-silica...

Photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) is one of the most established methods for determining the elemental composition and the chemical state of solid surfaces and thin films. This experiment focuses on X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), which exploits Xray photons to excite electrons from the core levels of the atoms of a solid into the vacuum, thus probing the electronic structure of matter w...
