abstractthe aim of the present study was to formulate poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (plga) nanoparticles loaded with 18-β-glycyrrhetinic acid (gla) with appropriate physicochemical properties and antimicrobial activity. gla loaded plga nanoparticles were prepared with different drug to polymer ratios, acetone contents and sonication times and the antibacterial activity of the developed nanopartic...

In this paper, tin Sulfide (SnS) nanoparticles are synthesized with three different solvents through hydrothermal method and characterized by using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, UV-DRS spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared energy-dispersive spectrum, supercapacitor, photovoltaic performance. XRD patterns indicate that the prepared SnS exist in orthorhombic phase. The SEM a...

in this investigation, we report facile synthesis of cadmium(ii)-thioacetamide nanocomposites in the presence and absence of polyvinyl alcohol under ultrasonic irradiations, using cadmium acetate dihydrate (cd(ch3coo)2.2h2o), potassium iodide (ki), thioacetamide (taa, ch3csnh2), and polyvinyl alcohol (pva) as the starting materials. results show that in the presence of polyvinyl alcohol size...

this work describes the optical and structure properties of nickel sulfide and cobalt sulfide nanoparticles in zsm-5 zeolite. the samples were obtained by sulfidation of the ni2+ and co2+ ion-exchange zsm-5 zeolites in a na2s solution at room temperature. the optical properties of the samples were studied by uv-visible spectroscopy. their crystalline structure and morphology were studied by x-r...

The various phases of tin sulfide have been studied as semiconductors since the 1960s and are now being investigated as potential earth-abundant photovoltaic and photocatalytic materials. Of particular note is the recent isolation of zincblende SnS in particles and thin-films. Herein, first-principles calculations are employed to better understand this novel geometry and its place within the ti...

Bimetallic (Pd-Cu, Pd-Sn) nanoparticles supported on structured fibrous carbons (activated carbon fibers and carbon nanofibers grown on sintered metal fibers) were tested in denitrification of natural polluted water by hydrogen (a batch and continuous mode). Dependence of the activity/selectivity on catalyst chemical composition, promoter nature and metal particle size was studied. Sn-modified ...

Because of its vast number of applications and high price many studies have been made on how to reduce the amount of platinum in catalysts. One method includes dispersing platinum nanoparticles in porous support materials. But electrically conductive carbon-based support materials-needed for fuel cell electrodes-permit nanoparticles to migrate and form larger clusters, leading to reduced cataly...

cadmium sulfide nanoparticles were grown using wet chemical method by dissolving the reactants ofcadmium acetate and sodium sulfide in the presence of thioglycerol (tg) as capping agent in ethanolsolvent. different nanoparticle sizes and size distribution were obtained through varying the molaritiesof thioglycerol. at higher tg concentration, synthesis provides a nearly monodisperse nanoparticl...

This Account reports the synthesis and characterization of dendrimer-encapsulated metal nanoparticles and their applications to catalysis. These materials are prepared by sequestering metal ions within dendrimers followed by chemical reduction to yield the corresponding zerovalent metal nanoparticle. The size of such particles depends on the number of metal ions initially loaded into the dendri...
