accumulation of aluminium by plants exposed to nano- and microsized particles of al2o3 wasinvestigated in terms of risk assessment and possible application in phytoremediation of contaminated sites.four plant species (allium cepa l., zea mays, lepidium sativum and kalanchoe daigremontiana)were cultivatedon media (soil or liquid medium) contaminated with nano- and microparticles of al2o3. bioava...

In this work, the low-temperature process steps required for the realization of nano-crystal non-volatile memory cells are discussed. An amorphous silicon film, crystallized using a diode pumped solid state green laser irradiating at 532 nm, is proposed as an active layer. The deposition of the subsequent functional layers (e.g., gate oxide) can be done using CVD and ALD reactors in a cluster t...

In this experimental study, the results of utilizing a nano-lubricant in place compressor work fluid refrigeration system were examined. R134a refrigerant was utilized system. Polyol ester (POE) used as base and prepared from alumina oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles utilized. The experiments carried out separately with nano-lubricants created by mixing Al2O3 ratios 0.5% 1.0% into POE oil. Additional...

Epoxy resin is extensively used in gas insulated switches as a renewable energy coating due to its exceptional insulation, mechanical characteristics, and environmental friendliness. The higher resistivity of the epoxy causes numerous surface charges accumulate on result carrier injection high DC electric field, which may cause insulation failure power transmission system. In this study, variou...

using the nanotechnology and decreasing the dimension of reinforcement particles to nanometer, outstanding mechanical properties are achieved in aluminum matrix nanocomposites. fabrication of aluminum matrix nanocomposites by casting is of great importance because of its simplicity, low cost and ease of the control of matrix microstructure. in this study, the aging behavior of nanocomposite sam...

the mixed metal nanocomposite mgo∙al2o3∙zno has been prepared by coprecipitation method. the product was characterized by xrd. the average particle size was found to be 34.89 nm from xrd data. sem and sem-eds were studied for evaluating surface morphology and elemental composition. the ftir spectrum of prepared mixed metal nanocomposites mgo∙al2o3∙zno and mgo∙al2o3∙zno-curcumin were studied. th...

No consistent metric for measuring exposure to nanoparticles has yet been agreed upon internationally. This study seeks to examine the relationship between the number concentration (NC), surface area concentration (SAC), and mass concentration (MC) of nanoparticles in workplaces. Real-time NC20-1000 nm, SAC10-1000 nm, and respirable MC100-1000 nm were determined for different nanoparticles. Con...

An alumina-supported nickel catalyst was prepared by impregnation of Ni2+ solution onto mesoporous alumina under microwave irradiation (denoted as M-Ni/Al2O3). For comparison, a catalyst with the same nickel content was prepared by conventional impregnation method (denoted as UM-Ni/Al2O3). Both M-Ni/Al2O3 and UM-Ni/Al2O3 catalysts were applied to the syngas (H2 + CO) production by methane oxy-s...
