nano zno/ montmorillonite composite were prepared by sol gel method under ultrasonic irradiation from directly mixing montmorillonite nano clay into zinc gel. the zn(ch3coo)2.2h2o and montmorillonite nano clay was used as precursor. the zinc acetate was dissolved in di water and, nh3 (aq) solution was dropped into the zinc solution until ph 9 consequently the zinc gel was produced. the montmori...

in this research, the effect of foliar spraying times and different levels of farmax® nano fertilizer on morphological characteristic and dry and fresh flower yield, essential oil and chamazulene percentage of chamomile (matricaria recutita l.) cv. bodegold was studied. the experiment was factorial in the bacic of randomized complete blocked design (rcbd) with eight treatment and four replicati...

the objective of this research is characterizing the effect of nano-zinc oxide (nano-zno) dispersions on leach resistance and contact angle of beech wood (fagus orientalis lipsky). the beech wood was cut into standard dimension, and oven dried after treating with nano-zno solution, based on immersion method. three treating nano-zno solution levels: (o, 20000 and 40000 ppm), and two thermal trea...

Rapid controlled self-assembly makes DNA ideal for building nanostructures. A problem using hybridized intermediates in hierarchic assembly is their thermodynamic lability. We demonstrate a click-fixation technology by which robust hexagonal DNA modules can be made. This principle is applicable to a wide variety of DNA nanoconstructs.

Background: Biotic and abiotic elicitors produce secondary metabolites and alter physiological traits of the plants by affecting some of the mechanisms within the plant cells. Objective: This study was aimed to investigate the effects of different concentrations of spherical nano-carbon and salicylic acid on physiological traits and paratolenolidae content in Feverfew. Methods: This research ...

BACKGROUND Fossil fuels' pollution and their non-renewability have motivated the search for alternative fuels. Some common example of seed oils are sunflower oil, date seed oil, soy bean oil. For instance, soy methyl and soy-based biodiesel are the main biodiesel. Biodiesel is a clean diesel fuel that can be produced through transesterification reaction. Recycled cooking oil, on the other hand,...

the density of state and the natural bond orbital calculations were carried out to study theoxidation of co on au14 nano cluster through two different mechanisms and determining the bestmechanism for the reaction. chemisorption of o2 and co on the nano cluster led to change in energy,density of state and its thermodynamic properties. we calculated the energy band gap between thehighest occupied...

we design a novel nano-ring resonator using two-dimensional photonic crystal (2d-phc), for bio-sensing applications. the structure of biosensor is created by two-curve-shaped ring resonator which sandwiched by two waveguides. these are configured by removing one row of air holes. the refractive index of sensing hole is changed by binding an analyte. hence, intensity of the transmission spectrum...
