This work reports a new method to covalently attach calix[4]arene derivatives onto MCM-41, using a diisocyanate as a linker. The modified mesoporous silicates were characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal analysis (TGA) and elemental analysis. The FTIR spectra and TGA analysis verified that the calix[4]arene derivates are covalently attached to the mesoporous sil...

In order to improve the efficiency of intumescent flame retardants (IFRs), a novel macromolecular charring agent named poly(ethanediamine-1,3,5-triazine-p-4-amino-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine) (PETAT) with gas phase and condense phase synergistic flame-retardant capability was synthesized and subsequently dispersed into polypropylene (PP) in combination with ammonium polyphosphate (APP) via a ...

A preceramic polymer of B,B',B''-(dimethyl)ethyl-acrylate-silyloxyethyl-borazine was synthesized by three steps from a molecular single-source precursor and characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometry. Six-member borazine rings and acrylate groups were effectively introduced into the preceramic polymer to activate UV photo-induced polymer...

Fecal lipid content is usually determined by titrimetric or gravimetric methods, but these methods are time consuming and involve dangerous solvents. We have developed a new method of measuring fecal lipids by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR) with an attenuated total reflectance accessory that is fast and requires no solvents. The spectra of stools from 4000 to 750 cm-1 were analy...

Nano-bioapatite (BAP) powder was successfully acquired from chicken femur bones via chemical treatment followed by calcination. The isolation of nano-bioapatite powder from chicken bone has not been published so far. The bioapatite powder was chemically and structurally characterized by elemental analysis (AAS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Fourier transf...

the aim of the present study was to prepare nano-sized calcium fluoride (caf2). calcium fluoride nanoparticles were synthesized by cacl2.6h2o and ammonium fluoride. nanoparticles were synthesized by co-precipitation method. the synthesized nanocrystals were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir), scanning electron microscopy (sem). the crystalli...

ZnFe2O4 mixed spinel ferrite nanoparticles obtained through a citrate-nitrate combustion method. Ignited products calcined at different temperatures in 600-900ºC range and effect of calcination treatment temperature investigated. Final Products characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier-Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM). The a...

In this work La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 , one group of nanosized perovskite-type oxides were prepared by sol-gel method. The perovskite structure has been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) , scanning electron microscopy (SEM) , energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) . The nanoparticles showed the excellent adsorption properties towards reactive blue 4 (RB4) ...
