Nanofluidic systems, with critical dimension of 10~100nm, are ideal model system for various types of nanoporous membranes. Artificially fabricated nanofluidic channels and nanopores have been successfully used for studying fundamental molecular / fluidic transport behaviors in nanoscale, yet there is much potential to take advantage of nanofluidic systems for real-world engineering application...

There is a growing demand for the separation and identification of short nucleic acid fragments, such as oligonucleotides. There were two main goals of the present investigation, namely, evaluation of the impact of stationary phase type and the influence of various ion-pair reagents on the retention behavior of oligonucleotides in ion-pair liquid chromatography. Three types of ion-pair reagents...

The magnetic field, the electron density, and the ion velocities in a multispecies plasma conducting a high fast-rising current are determined using simultaneous spectroscopic measurements. It is found that ion separation occurs in which a light-ion plasma is pushed ahead while a heavy-ion plasma lags behind the magnetic piston. We show that most of the momentum imparted by the magnetic field p...

In this article, preparation of polypyrrole and its nanocomposites as adsorbents werediscussed and the capability of separation of copper ions from aqueous solution were studied.Polypyrrole was prepared by chemical oxidative polymerization method of pyrrole usingFeCl3 as an oxidant. The removal of Cu (II) was investigated using PPy, PPy/TiO2 andPPy/TiO2/DHSNa nanocomposites. The products were i...

ZSM-11 zeolite was synthesized by hydrothermal treatment and cerium ion was incorporated by the ion exchange method.  The catalytic activity of cerium modified ZSM-11 zeolite was tested for the one-pot synthesis of 4H-pyran derivatives by cyclocondensation of aromatic aldehyde, malononitrile, and ethyl acetoacetate. The synthesized catalyst was characterized by Po...

Nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations of microturbulence simultaneously driven by electron temperature gradient modes, trapped electron modes, and ion temperature gradient modes are presented, covering both electron and ion spatiotemporal scales self-consistently. It is found that, for realistic ion heat (and particle) flux levels and in the presence of unstable electron temperature gradient modes,...

In this paper, Fe3 O4 @SiO2 core/shell magnetic nanostructure has been synthesized and modified by N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (AEAPTMS). Fe3 O4 @SiO2 was used as a novel adsorbent for separation of hexachloroplatinic acid. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and FT-IR technique were used to characterize morphologies and surface texturing of these ads...

The charge separation effects in the collisionless plasma expansion into a vacuum are studied in great detail. Accurate results are obtained concerning the structure of the ion front, the resultant ion energy spectrum, and more specifically the maximum ion energy. These are of crucial importance for the interpretation of recent experiments, where high-energy ion jets were produced from short pu...
