the use of an inorganic phase in water-in-oil (w/o) microemulsion   has   received considerable attention recently for preparing metal oxide   nanoparticles. this is a technique, which allows preparation of ultrafine   metal oxide nanoparticles within the size range 40 to 80 nm. preparation of   nano zno and cr 2 o 3 studied, investigated in the inverse   microemulsion system. therefore the nuc...

sol–gel chemistry is an efficient tool to control the morphology and reactivity of solids. drying is the crucial step due to the capillary forces exerted during the classic ambient drying process, which induces the collapse of the wet gel porosity. the use of n, n-dimethylformamide (dmf), a newly found dcca were found to be effective in the sol–gel synthesis of crack-free silica gel monolith fr...

In this work, sol-gel processing was used to synthesize the fluorohydroxyapatite (nano-FHA, Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2−xFx) nanopowders. The advantages of the sol-gel method over other methods are precise control of composition, low processing temperature, and better homogeneity. Calcium nitrate tetrahydrate, phosphorous pentoxide and Tetrabuthylammon...

Background and objectives: Aloe vera has been used as a medicinal herb for thousands of years. Aloe vera leaves can be separated into latex and gel which have biological effects. Aloe gel is a potent source of polysaccharides. When the gel is exposed to air, it quickly decomposes and decays and loses most of its biological activity. There are various processin...
