in the present study, aminoazines were prepared from the reaction of amidrazone hydroiodide with various aromatic aldehydes in the presence of a solid base under microwave irradiation with power level of 850 w for 2-7 min in high yields. the amidrazone hydroiodide can also be prepared by the reaction of s-methyl isothiobenzamide hydroiodide and hydrazine in methanol under nitrogen gas. all synt...

in this pepper fe2o3 nanoparticles were synthesized via a fast microwave method. then fe2o3-tio2 nanocomposites were synthesized by a sonochemical-assisted method. the prepared products were characterized by x-ray diffraction pattern, scanning electron microscopy and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. the photocatalytic behaviour of fe2o3-tio2 nanocomposites was evaluated using the degrad...

the cost of drying carpet which is done toward the end of the manufacturing process, is quite high. the carpet industry has been using convection drying for many years. little attention has been given to quantifying the effect of microwave power during the drying of carpet. an experimental system was developed whereby air was introduced into the cavity of a domestic microwave oven. the results ...

drying behavior of two types of pomegranates as well as the effect of drying conditions on moisture loss trend and on effective diffusion coefficient of arils are discussed in this article. also, an appropriate mathematical drying model as well as the activation energy of sweet and sour pomegranate arils, dried in vacuum and microwave driers are pursued and presented. results of regression anal...

Abstarct  In this paper, effect of mechanical activation on microwave reactive sintering of MgO - TiO2 system was investigated. Mixtures of MgO and TiO2 were milled at different times. Mixed powders along with 10 h milled powders were chosen for microwave sintering between 1000- 1400⁰C. Results showed that increasing of temperature up to 1400̊C for mixed powders could not give rise to complete f...

The purpose of this research is to investigate the mechanical and electrical properties of nano structured cordierite. Nano grain size powders were synthesized through mechanical activation by high-energy ball milling of the starting powders containing 34.86 wt% Al2O3, 51.36 wt% SiO2, and 13.78 wt% MgO. Samples were prepared by conventional and microwave sintering at 1390°C. SEM observations il...

abstractbackground and objective: microwave-assisted extraction (mae) is one of the novel, fast, and efficient methods for extraction of bioactive compounds. the aim of this study was optimization of mae of betalains from red beet (beta vulgaris) and evaluating antioxidant activity of its methanolic extract.materials and methods: the effects of independent variables namely, microwave power leve...

the effect of pre-treatments in combination with hot air, vacuum and hot-a microwave drying methods the progress of the drying process, and textural, and colour and rehydration rate on button mushroom (agaricus bisporus) slices were investigated. in this work, one of the following methods: hot air, vacuum drying or microwave-assisted convective drying and also different pre-drying treatments, v...

background: there are many varieties of compounds in chemical and petrochemical wastewater. one of the important members of the chlorophenols (cps) family is ρ-chlorophenol. this pollutant is introduced into the environment through various human activities such as waste incineration, uncontrolled use of wood preservatives, pesticides, fungicides and herbicides, as well as via bleaching the pulp...
