Copper oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using black tea extract and copper nitrate as thecopper source by the green method at different calcination temperatures. This method has manyadvantages such as nontoxic, economic viability, ease to scale up, less time consuming andenvironmental friendly approach for the synthesis of CuO nanoparticles without using any organicchemicals. The synthesize...

Background: Curcuma longa generally known as turmeric includes curcuminoids and sesquiterpenoids as components, which are known to have antioxidative, anticarcinogenic, and anti-inflammatory activities. Iron, magnetite, and hematite as a micronutrient play an important role in physiological and chemical processes. Chitosan is a natural polymer derived from chitin and is recognized as versatile ...

Calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) was prepared by a simple precipitation method using avian eggshell waste as a low-cost alternative calcium precursor source. The synthesized CPP powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM/EDS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The results indicate that pure b-CPP nanocrys...

Nanogels of a binary system of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCh) and poly- (vinyl alcohol) PVA, were successfully synthesized by a novel in situ process. They were also characterized by various analytical tools like Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). They were studied for their unique swelling properties in water and d...

Highly ordered mesoporous inorganic-organic hybrid thin films with covalently bonded carboxylic acid (-COOH) terminal groups on the pore surfaces were synthesized by evaporation induced self-assembly of tetraethoxysilane, organosilanes, and a nonionic surfactant followed by acid hydrolysis and characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform...

The present paper aims to study the preparation of polyaniline nanofibers through simple interfacial polymerization.
