Recently, gas sensing is performed in various fields such as environmental protection, industrial process, agricultural analysis, medical care, and security and safety. In these fields, portable gas sensing apparatuses that enable high-sensitive, real-time, and/or on-site measurements are required. Figure 1 shows the correlation between the detection sensitivity and measurement time of existing...

this paper presents a systematic study of the surface chemistry, porous texture and adsorptive characteristics of prepared new activated carbon using persian mesquite grain. several techniques and methodologies such as, proximate analysis, n2 adsorption–desorption isotherms, scanning electron microscope (sem), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(ft-ir), x-ray diffraction (xrd), x-ray photoe...

a new sorbent composed of 3-aminopropyltriethoxy-silane-coated magnetic nanoparticles, functionalized with rhodium(iii) porphyrin complex was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, x-ray diffraction (xrd), transmission electron microscopy (tem), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir) and thermogravimetric analysis (tga). the effect of some co-existing anions present in aq...

bone like hydroxyapatite (nhap) was synthesized via an in situ biomimetic process in presence of wheat starch. the effect of polymer concentration alteration on the final structure of nhap was investigated. formation of the nhap at room temperature was confirmed by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir). size and morphology of the nhap samples were character...

in this work firstly mgfe2o4 nanoparticles were synthesized via a microwave-assisted method. the product was calcinated at 900 ºc for 2h. at the second step zinc oxide shell was synthesized on the ferrite under ultrasonic waves. properties of the product were examined by x-ray diffraction pattern (xrd), scanning electron microscope (sem) and fourier transform infrared (ft-ir) spectroscopy. vibr...

copper vanadate nanostructures were prepared via ex-situ precipitation approach in presence of schiff-base ligand (n,n׳ -buthylenebis(acetylacetone iminato)dianion = acacbn) as a new capping agent. the effect of different cu sources and ph on the size, morphology and size distribution of copper vanadate nanostructures was investigated. the as-prepared products were characterized using x-ray dif...

fe3o4 nanoparticles were synthesizedviaa simple chemical reaction between fecl2.4h2o and fe(no3)3.9h2o under nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature, and then nanoparticles were added to cellulose acetate (ca) polymer. the influence of nanoparticles on the thermal properties of ca polymeric matrix was studied using thermogravimetric analysis (tga). nanostructures were characterized by x-ray dif...

-The vibrational modes of clay minerals are uniquely accessible to FT Raman spectroscopy, but this potentially powerful technique has found limited application to the study of clay mineral structure. Raman spectra in the 50 to 3800 cm-t region were obtained for a number of kandite clays. The kandite clay minerals are characterised by relatively intense bands centred at 142.7 cm -I for kaolinite...
