Silica nanoparticles were directly coated with cobalt hydroxide by homogeneous precipitation of slowly decomposing urea in cobalt nitrate solution. The cobalt hydroxide was amorphous, and its morphology was nanoflower-like. The BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) surface area of the core-shell composite was 221 m²/g. Moreover, the possible formation procedure is proposed: the electropositive cobalt io...

In today era cancer is a dangerous and terrible disease which cause due to rapid increment of unusual cells within the body. Cancer second influential death in world. It has become very difficult overcome cancerous disease. 10 million people died per year from cancer. The major sudden change DNA cells. As result normal convert into enhance process metastasis. There are some treatments this but ...

Cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanoparticles were successfully prepared by thermal decomposition of cobalt hydroxide synthesized from cobalt acetate, ammonium hydroxide and 10% glycerol. The cobalt oxide nanoparticles calcined at 450 °C were characterized by using XRD. The XRD confirms the crystallinity and crystal structure of the sample. It also shows that the diffraction peak are broadened which revea...

Cobalt may be released to the environment by human activities, as well by weathering of rocks and soil. The primary anthropogenic sources of cobalt in the environment are from the burning of fossil fuels, application of cobalt-containing sludge or phosphate fertilizers, mining and smelting of cobalt-containing ores, processing of cobalt-containing alloys, and industries that use or process coba...

T HE essentiality of cobalt in the diet of sheep has been proved by Underwood and Filmer (I93~), Marston et al. (I938), Bowstead and Sackville (i939), Bowstead et el. (I94z), Pope et al. (1947), and by Keener et al. (I948). Numerous workers in this country and abroad also have identified cobalt deficiency m cattle. Little progress appears to have been made, however, in determining the function ...

An extensive study of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) on alumina-supported cobalt catalysts with different amounts of cobalt is reported. Up to 40 wt % of cobalt, is added to the catalysts by impregnation method. The effect of the cobalt loading on the reducibility of the cobalt oxide species, dispersion of the cobalt, average clusters size, water-gas shift (WGS) activity and activity and s...

Cobalt is a well-established inducer of hypoxia-like responses, which can cause gene modulation at the hypoxia inducible factor pathway to induce erythropoietin transcription. Cobalt salts are orally active, inexpensive, and easily accessible. It is an attractive blood doping agent for enhancing aerobic performance. Indeed, recent intelligence and investigations have confirmed cobalt was being ...

Controlling the ratio of 2,2'-bpy to benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid produces two interesting complexes, namely [Co(2,2'-bpy)₃]·(SO₄)·8.5H₂O (1) and [Cu₂(BTCA) (2,2'-bpy)₄] (OH)·(2,2'-bpy)₀.₅·14H₂O (2) (H₃BTCA = benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid, 2,2'-bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine). We report the structural evidence in the solid state of discrete lamellar water cluster conformations. These units are fo...

Three spiro-acridine-fluorene based hole transporting materials (HTMs), namely CW3, CW4 and CW5, are employed in the fabrication of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells. The corresponding mesoscopic TiO2/CH3NH3PbI3/HTM devices are investigated and compared with that made with commercial spiro-OMeTAD. The best conversion efficiency of 16.56% is achieved for CW4 in the presence of tBp ...
