ABSTRACT A newly arising challenge in the field of nanoparticle research concerns the control and the understanding of the interparticle interactions and interparticle properties. This should allow the development of materials based on nanoparticle assemblies which represents a great opportunity to exploit nanoparticle collective properties. Although some nanoparticle networks have been reporte...

BACKGROUND Manganese-oxides are one of the most important minerals in soil due to their widespread distribution and high reactivity. Despite their invaluable role in cycling many redox sensitive elements, numerous unknowns remain about the reactivity of different manganese-oxide minerals under varying conditions in natural systems. By altering temperature, pH, and concentration of arsenite we w...

heteropoly acid promoted nanoparticle of nickel oxide samples were prepared by sol-gel method using heteropoly acids. prepared composite was characterized by xrd, ft-ir and icp technique. in this work, we have reported bromination of phenol, its derivatives and some aromatic compounds. the liquid phase bromination of phenol was performed using heteropoly acids immobilized nanoparticle of nickel...

Up to now, lots of materials such as active carbon, iron, manganese, zirconium, and metal oxides have been widely used for removal of dyes from contaminated water. Among these, ferrite nanoparticle is an interesting magnetic material due to its moderate saturation magnetization, excellent chemical stability and mechanical hardness. Graphene, a new class of 2D carbonaceous material with atom thi...

in this research zinc oxide (zno) nano-crystalline powders were prepared by sol-gel method using zinc acetate. the zno nanoparticles were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), ultraviolet-visible (uv-vis), fourier transform infra-red (ft-ir) and energy dispersive x-ray (edx) spectroscopy. the structure of nanoparticles was studied using xrd pattern. the c...

Nanoparticles are being intensively investigated because of their unique optical, electrical and catalytic properties which make them a potential material for utilization in the field of medicine electronic and environmental issues. This paper is concerned with the removing a heavy metal, Chromium, from its aqueous solution by Iron oxide nanoparticle filtration. Solutions of varying chromium co...

the special application of iron-manganese oxide nanocatalysts has been investigated in decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. in this research, iron-manganese oxide nanocomposites were synthesized by co-precipitation, sol-gel and mechanochemical methods using iron (iii) nitrate, iron (ii) sulfate and manganese (ii) nitrate as starting materials. these nanocomposites were prepared on the various ca...

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles are candidate contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging and targeted drug delivery. Biodistribution and toxicity assessment are critical for the development of nanoparticle-based drugs, because of nanoparticle-enhanced biological reactivity. Here, we investigated the uptake, in vivo biodistribution, and in vitro and in vivo potential toxicity of m...

this study was conducted to evaluate the bioavailability of nano and micro sources of manganese in broiler chickens. two hundred and eight, 10-d-old male ross 308 broilers in a completely randomized design with 13 treatments, 4 replications and 4 chicks per replicate were studied for 35 days. during the experimental period, a basal corn-soybean meal diet containing 20 ppm mn (control treatment)...

A facile single-step method was developed for synthesizing todorokite-type manganese oxide octahedral molecular seieves (OMS-1) and 2 x 4 tunnel structured manganese oxide (OMS-5) materials. Selection of starting materials and initial pH conditions in the syntheses are crucial.
