Magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles were synthesized by coprecipitation route. Coprecipitation is a simple, reproducible and accessible technique relying on the coprecipitation of Fe2+ and Fe3+ cations by NaOH as base at low temperature (~80 °C). In this work, the role of different solvents (H2O, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol) on phase, structure, microstructure and magneti...

INTRODUCTION Limited quantitative information is available on dermal exposure to chemicals during various industrial activities. Therefore, within the scope of the EU-funded RISKOFDERM project, potential dermal exposure was measured during three different tasks: filling, loading and brushing. DEGBE (2-(2-butoxyethoxy)ethanol) was used as a 'marker' substance to determine dermal exposure to the ...

Ethylene glycol, methanol, and diethylene glycol are readily available in many household and commercially available products. While these alcohols are relatively nontoxic themselves, their acidic metabolites are toxic and can result in significant morbidity and mortality. Herein we report a lethal case of massive ethylene glycol ingestion in a suicide with a record high level (1254 mg/dL) and i...

These CO2-philic open-chain organophosphorous chelating ligands, i.e. diethylene glycol bis (2, 4, 4-trimethyl-1-pentyl) dimethyl diphosphate (EG2TP), diethylene glycol bis (3, 5, 5-trimethyl-1-hexyl) dimethyl diphosphate (EG2TH), and diethylene glycol dioctyl dimethyl diphosphate (EG2Oct), ethylene glycol bis(2-isopropoxyethyl) dimethyl diphosphate (EG2IPE), triethylene glycol bis(2-isopropoxy...

The new one-pot hydrolysis-crosslinking reaction was used to synthesize a new, waste poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)-based material for zinc(II) ions removal. The alkaline hydrolysis of PMMA in diethylene glycol diethyl ether was used to obtain polymer matrix and it was then crosslinked with Ca and Mg ions to obtain the sorbent. As a result, the macroporous materials were obtained with a yield...
