in this paper, cuo nanoparticles  have been synthesized via solid-state thermal decomposition using copper(ii) schiff base complexes as new precursors at 600ºc under air atmosphere for 3 h. surface morphology of the products were characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir), x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem).

introduction various factors like climatic conditions, vegetation, soil properties, topography, time, plant residue quality and crop management strategies affect the decomposition rate of organic carbon (oc) and its residence time in soil. plant residue management concerns nutrients recycling, carbon recycling in ecosystems and the increasing co2 concentration in the atmosphere. plant residue d...

In this research, CuO spherical-like nanoparticles were synthesized using the planetary ball mill method. The structure, particle size and morphology of the resulting CuO nanoparticles were characterized by XRD (X-ray diffraction), SEM (scanning electron microscopy) and SAXS (small-angle X-ray scattering) methods. The results of this investigation showed ...

composite solid propellants were prepared with and without nano-alloys (ti-co, ti-ni, ti-zn), where nano-alloys used as catalyst. these nano-alloys are prepared by hydrazine reduction method. catalytic properties of these nanomaterials were measured on ammonium perchorate/hydroxyterminatedpolybutadiene propellant by thermogravimetery analysis and differential thermal analysis. both experimental...

in this study, we synthesis one-dimensional (1d) manganese(iii) schiff base coordination polymer [mn(brsalophen)(μ1,3-n3)]n by reaction of mncl2·6h2o and tetradentate schiff base ligand brsalophen at the presence of nan3 in methanol and characterized by elemental analyses (chn) and ft-ir spectroscopy. it was used as a new precursor to prepare spinel type manganese oxide nanowires by a facile so...

as a new precursor, [tris(2-hydroxyacetophenato) triaqua(iii)], [y(hap)3(h2o)3]; complex was used in thermal decomposition process for the synthesis of rod-like high-temperature ceramic ybco with length of about 320-350 nm and diameters 60–90 nm. the as-synthesized products were characterized by xrd, ft-ir, tem, sem and edx analyses. the results showed that by using fine raw materials, the calc...

incorporation of plant residue in soils is considered as an important agricultural practice for maintaining soil fertility in sustainable agricultural system. co2 levels, nitrogen fertilization and plant residues are factors which highly affect decomposition of added organic matter to soil. in this research controlled chambers were used to investigate the effects of elevated atmospheric co2 con...
