the continuous development of global economy with decreasing in available hydrocarbon sources and increasing discovery and extraction costs due to decrease in-situ oil and gas reservoir, displays the necessity of using new techniques for the improve rate of penetration and productivity in well. nanotechnology has already contributed significantly to technological advances in the energy industri...

Nanorods of a three-dimensional Zn(II) metal-organic framework, [Zn₂(btec)(DMF)₂]n (1) (btec=1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylate, DMF=N,N-dimethylformamide), have been synthesized by a sonochemical process and characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), powder XRD and FT-IR spectroscopy. Structural determination of compound 1 was determined by single crystal X-ray diffrac...

Photo-catalysts have many applications in different fields of industry especially in elimination of pollutants and heavy metals from wastewater. In this study first three component nano composite and two components nano composite were prepared. These composite were applied on non-woven textiles by Pad-dry method and their effect on elimination of color and heavy metals were investigated. Morpho...

Abstract:Electroless Nickel-phosphorus (EN) coatings provide high performance in various industrial fields due to their unique properties such as excellent corrosion and wear resistance. This paper aims to study the effect of ZnO nano-particles addition on corrosion behavior of EN coatings. Various amounts of ZnO nano-particles with average diameter of 50 nm were added to hypophosphite reduced ...

Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) biosensors are employed to detect target biomolecules which have particular resonance wavelengths. Accordingly, tunability of the LSPR wavelength is essential in designing LSPR devices. LSPR devices employing silver nano-particles present better efficiencies than those using other noble metals such as gold; however, silver nano-particles are easily oxi...

interpenetrating polymer networks (ipn) were formed involving hydrophobic polybutyl acrylate (pba) and hydrophilic poly hydroxyethyl acrylate (phea). pba prepolymer was first formed in presence of ferric oxide nanoparticles (

a suitable option for manufacture of packing materials is the use of clay and silver nano particles. these materials help create optimal relative impermeable quality, in addition to other features being improved. moisture-packed bread by use of these materials prevent water vapor loss and therefore reduce the level of bread becoming stale. in this study, seven types of nano-films with different...

Tungsten carbide cobalt (WC-Co) has been recognized as a workplace inhalation hazard in the manufacturing, mining and drilling industries by the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health. Exposure to WC-Co is known to cause "hard metal lung disease" but the relationship between exposure, toxicity and development of disease remain poorly understood. To better understand this relations...

Nano/microparticles have been used widely in drug delivery applications. The majority of the particles are prepared by the conventional emulsion methods, which tend to result in particles with heterogeneous size distribution with sub-optimal drug loading and release properties. Recently, microfabrication methods have been used to make nano/microparticles with a monodisperse size distribution. T...
