It is a known fact that most of the reported magnetic structures are “1-k” magnetic phases, i.e. their magnetic orderings have a single propagation vector. Furthermore, most of them have spin configurations that possess one of the possible maximal magnetic symmetries compatible with its propagation vector. This second property is not well known and its importance and utility has not been yet ex...

in the present study, removal of dibenzothiophene (dbt) from model oil (n-hexane) was investigated using magnetic activated carbon (mac) nano-composite adsorbent. the synthesized nano-composite was characterized by ft-ir, fe-sem, bet and vsm techniques. the mac nano-composite exhibited a nearly superparamagnetic property with a saturation magnetization (ms) of 29.2 emu g-1, which made it desira...

A novel bioconjugate of stearic acid capped maghemite nanoparticle (gamma-Fe(2)O(3)) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) was developed by taking recourse to the fatty acid binding property of the protein. From FT-IR study, it was found that conjugation took place covalently between the amine group of protein molecule and carboxyl group of stearic acid capped maghemite nanoparticle. TEM study furthe...

in this work we report synthesis and magnetic characterization of cobalt doped zno nanoparticles (with different percent of doped cobalt oxide). synthesis of the materials was carried out at room temperature by polyacrylamide-gel method, using zink sulfate and cobalt nitrate as source materials, acrylamide as monomer and n,n-methylene bisacrylamide as a lattice reagent. characterization of the ...

A simple and efficient method for the chemoselective 1,1-diacetate protection of aromatic aldehydes with acetic anhydride by using Ni2+ supported on hydroxyapatite-core-shell magnetic γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles (γ-Fe2O3@HAp-Ni2+) under solvent free conditions. This method has several advantages, including high yield, short reaction time, simple work-up and recyclable property of the catalyst. The ca...

Epoxy matrix nanocomposites with nickel nanoparticles of two different sizes were processed and characterized to investigate their structure-magnetic property correlations. Crystal structure, morphology, density, resistivity and magnetic properties of the nanocomposites with different filler contentswere compared for different size scales. Nanocomposites with 25 nm nanoparticles showed higher c...
