BACKGROUND Aryl sulfides have significant importance from biological and pharmaceutical aspects. Transition metal-catalyzed carbon-sulfur cross-coupling reaction represents an important tool for the synthesis of sulfides. Among various transition metals, copper salts or oxides have found vast applicability. RESULTS A simple procedure for the preparation of poly-ionic amberlite resins embedded...

although carbon nanotubes (cnt) have been employed as reinforcements in nanocomposites, presence of nano scale defects such as stone-wales and vacancy defects in carbon nanotubes (cnt) weakens the mechanical properties of these materials. in this paper the effects of defects in cnts on nanocomposite elastic behavior are investigated using molecular dynamics. stiffness matrices of cnt and nanoco...

In this article CuO/water nanofluid was synthesized by using polyvinylpyrolidone (PVP) as the dispersant.  Thenanofluid stability period and the heat transfer enhancement were determinedby measuring the thermal conductivities. To study the nano-fluid stability, zeta (ζ) potential, and absorbency were measured under different pH values and PVP surfactant concentrations; also thermal conductivity...

Nanocomposite of ZrO2/ZnO was prepared under ultrasonic irradiation by sol gel process from directly mixing Zirconium and Zinc gels. The mixture was placed under ultrasonic irradiation for 2 hours. After the aging time and filtration of the reaction mixture, the filtrated composite gel was calcinated at 500 °C for 3h in furnace. The precursor gels of zirconium and zinc were prepared ...

copper sulfate was used as a precursor to prepare cuo nanoparticles in reverse micelles (o/w microemulsion).  this is a technique which allows the preparation of ultrafine metal oxide nanoparticles within the size ranging from 50 to 60 nm. the preparation of nano copper (ii) oxide studied was investigated in the inverse microemulsion system. therefore the nucleation of metal particles proceeds ...

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) with highly exposed {001} facets was synthesized through a facile solvo-thermal method and its surface was decorated by using reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets. The morphology and chemical composition of the prepared rGO/TiO2 {001} nanocomposite were examined by using suitable characterization techniques. The rGO/TiO2 {001} nanocomposite was used to modify glassy carbo...

Electrical insulation materials are advancing rapidly due to several advantages including light weight, better performance in polluted environment and reduced installation cost. In polymeric micro-composites, enhancing one property of the insulator may affect adversely on the other desired properties. This problem can be addressed practically with the invention of nanocomposites. This article p...

In this article, the application of 10 new amino-m-terphenyls in 3D-VAT printing was described. New compounds have specially designed D-π-A structure, where central phenyl ring with nitrile and amino groups is acceptor modifiable group donor. Such design eliminates problem acid scavenging guaranteed desire properties photoactivity as well it allows further development such system for printing. ...

in this work the synthesis of polyaniline/chitosan/functionalized single- walled carbon nanotube nanocomposite is carried out. for this purpose single -walled carbon nanotubes were reacted with thionyl chloride to change the hydroxyl to acyl chloride groups for improving the react ability. in other step, aniline monomers and chitosan were polymerized in the presence of iron (iii) chloride to sy...
