in the current paper, finite element method is employed for numerical simulations and the study of influential parameters on elastic modulus of polymer-matrix nano-composites. effects of different key parameters including particle elastic modulus, interphase elastic modulus, matrix elastic modulus, interphase thickness and particle volume fraction on total elastic modulus of nano-composite mate...

this study reports the simple process to synthesis of cuo/cui nanocomposite in a non-aqueous solution. in the conducted experiments cui and dimethyl sulfoxide (dmso) were used as the precursors. moreover, dmso had role of solvent and ligand simultaneously. in experiments the effects of oleic acid as the particles size modifier, temperature and concentration were investigated. crystalline struct...

In this work we have demonstrated a facile formation of CuO nanostructures on copper substrates by the oxidation of copper foil in ethylene glycol (EG) at 80 °C. On immersing a prepared CuO film into a solution containing 0.1 g Zn(acac)₂ in 20 mL EG for 8 h, ZnO flower-like microstructures composed of hierarchical three-dimensional (3D) aggregated nanoparticles and spherical architectures were ...

statement of problem: acid producing bacteria including streptococcus mutans and lactobacilli cause tooth demineralization and lead to tooth decay. also, oral colonization of the species of candida has been reported in many studies that are resistant to antifungal agents. objectives: in this study, antibacterial and antifungal effects of nano-cuo were studied against some oral bacteria and yeas...

The present work describes a new solution-free strategy for preparation of cluster-like nano/micro CuO/ZnO particles in dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) in which the brass acts as the inner electrode. The cataluminescence (CTL) behaviour of such prepared material for acetic acid was studied for analytical application. Under the optimized conditions, the linear range of CTL intensity versus co...

In our current study, supercritical water impregnation (SCWI) was introduced as a unique catalyst preparation method by employing the high diffusivity property of supercritical water. The method allows nano-particles to place on support surfaces in extremely dispersed conditions. The silica-based nanocatalyst granules for this purpose were prepared by initial impregnation of highly porous silic...

In This applicable research, investigating absorption of process ofErythrosine dye on Copper oxide Nano particles Adsorbent was studied. First, prepared dyeconcentrations of 6, 8 and 12 mg L-1 and then effects of parameters such as concentrations ofinitial dye, time and pH on dye absorption efficiency were investigated.The dyeconcentrations in different samples were measured via spectrophotomet...

Polymer composites of polyvinyl chloride, PVC, were loaded up with micro and nano PbO/CuO particles. The added percentage each by mass was 10 wt.%, 20 30 40 plus wt.% mixed composite (20 CuO + PbO). linear attenuation coefficients the investigated measured as a function gamma-ray energies going from 59.53 keV to 1408.01 utilizing standard radioactive point sources. To confirm validity these res...

Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is one of the most important and widely cultivated Legume in the world. The two-spotted spider mite (TTSM), is one of the most important agricultural pests. This research provided some evidence of the applicability of CuO nano particles and nano capsule for controlling TTSM. To evaluate the effect of copper nano-capsules on the populations of TSSM from red be...

Nanofluids are new generation heat transfer fluids and have opened a new horizon in the areas of heat transfer applications. Nanofluids are prepared by dispersing nano-sized metallic particles in conventional fluids of heat transfer. Heat transfer performance of nanofluid depends primarily on its thermo physical properties like viscosity, thermal conductivity, specific heat and density. Viscosi...
