SnCl4/nano-sawdust was prepared as a carbohydrate-based catalyst containing of tin bearing cellulose units. The catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The catalyst was applied successfully as a readily available, inexpensive, biodeg...

In open-path Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, the generation of a suitable background single-beam spectrum is of major concern. The Shifting Method is a derivative-like approach to correct for the background without the need to actually measure a background spectrum using the sample single-beam spectrum. A thorough study of the Shifting Method was conducted. A set of guidelines was deve...

In this work we synthesized of mesoporous silica nanoparticles and functionalized with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane to improve the loading and release of ibuprofen bonded to 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. sample were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy , X-ray diffraction, and ultraviolet-visible. the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy resu...

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).

the purpose of the current research is investigating the phenylalanine removal by using magnetic nanoparticles (fe3o4) from water samples. the effect of ph, contact time and phenylalanine concentration on phenylalanine adsorption efficiency by magnetite nanoparticles are studied in a batch system. transmission electron microscopy (tem), x-ray diffraction patterns (xrd) and fourier transform inf...

in this paper functionalized multiwall carbon nanotubes (fmwcnt) were modified using doxycycline, containing reactable nitrogen, which can attach chemically to functionalized mwcnt. the synthesized nano compounds were characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir) and raman spectroscopy. these spectrums proved the existence of nitrogen atoms of amide functional groups. the mor...

a novel zinc oxide - agar nanocomposite was successfully synthesized using zinc chloride as a precursor. the nanocomposite was prepared using a domestic microwave oven. the prepared nanocomposites have been characterized by fourier transform infrared (ftir) spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction (xrd) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (sem) and uv- visible spectroscopy. the crystalline properties...

We perform a comprehensive comparison between terahertz ~THz! time-domain spectroscopy and conventional far-infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy, including radiation source, detector, signal to noise ratio, bandwidth, availability, applications, and their own uniqueness. In terms of signal to noise ratio, THz time-domain spectroscopy is advantageous at low frequencies under 3 THz, while Four...
