Thermal decomposition behavior of Poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) and PLLA composites after different heat treatment were investigated using thermogravimetric analysis. Firstly, the thermal decomposition results of neat PLLA showed that the decomposition of PLLA was a first-order kinetic reaction, and thermal decomposition kinetics indicated that the heat treatment significantly affected activation ...

A complex of Cu(II) with 1-(6-HydroxyNaphthalen-2-yl) Butane-1,3-Dione (HNBD) was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV and DTA-TG-DTG techniques.    IR spectra as well as UV-visible absorption measurements indicated that Cu(II) ion was coordinated to the HNBD ligand. The TG-DTA-DTG curves showed that thermal decomposition o...

Aprotic diazotization of anthranilic acid with isoamylnitrite or amylnitrite gave benzenediazonium-2- carboxylate. Subsequent thermal decomposition of this diazonium salt (in situ) in 1,2-dichloroethane as a solvent at 85OC and in the presence of 2,5-diethyl-3,4-diphenylcyclopentadienonaes a trapping agent gave 1,4-diethyl-2, 3-diphenylnaphthalene in high yield, after loss of carbon monoxid...

Non-stoichiometric nickel–copper manganites Ni Cu Mn h O were synthesized by thermal decomposition of x y 32x2y 3d / 4 41d mixed Ni Cu Mn C O , nH O oxalates in air at low temperature (623–673 K). X-ray diffraction showed that, x / 3 y / 3 (32x2y) / 3 2 4 2 for a nickel content x $ 0.1, the oxalates precipitated presented a mixed crystal structure up to a limit value of copper Ni extent, wherea...

a new nano-sized cobalt(ii) coordination polymer, (col1).0.5dmf.1.5ch3oh(1); [h2l1 = 5-(4-carboxy phenyl azo) salicyilic acid] has been synthesized by a sonochemical method. the thermal stability of compound 1 was studied by thermo- gravimetric and differential thermal analyses. nano-structure of this coordination polymer was characterized by elemental analyses, ir spectroscopy,  powder x-ray d...

Single phase BiFeO3 (BFO) nanoparticles as a visible light photocatalyst were successfully synthesized by thermal decomposition of the glyoxylate precursor. The glyoxylate precursors were formed by the redox reaction between ethylene glycol and nitrate ions. The phase evolution, structure and optical properties of BFO nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy an...

The interaction of incident electron beams with molybdenum hexacarbonyl (Mo(CO)6) adsorbed on thin, dehydroxylated alumina films grown on a molybdenum substrate is studied in ultrahigh vacuum using primarily temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and reflection– absorption infrared spectroscopies (RAIRS). It is found that electron beams induce decarbonylation, forming both subcarbonyls and a s...
