The dielectric properties of a methanol-water mixture were measured at different temperatures from 20 to 80 °C at two frequencies 915 MHz and 2450 MHz. These frequencies are most commonly used on industrial and domestic scales respectively. In this study, the dielectric properties of a methanol-water mixture were found to be dependent on temperature, solvent concentration, and presence of plant...

Background: The objective of the present study was to investigate the combinative effect of ball milling and solvent displacement method on size reduction of Celecoxib particles. Celecoxib is a poorly water soluble cyclooxygenase 2 inhibitor which has a wide range of therapeutic applicability. Methods: Microparticles were developed via solvent displacement method followed by planetary ball mill...

Low volatility solvent/non-solvent mixtures were utilized to engineer the structure of poly(3-alkylthiophene) (P3AT) organogels. The ratio of solvent to poor-solvent was manipulated to systematically control the kinetics of self-assembly. Specific solvent mixtures were utilized to produce similar gelation kinetics with polymers of differing alkyl chain length. Simultaneous small angle neutron s...

in this investigation, cuins2 ternary compound was synthesized by injection of thiourea solution into a hot copper-indium solution. the cucl, incl3 along with (sc (nh2)2) were used as a precursor dissolved in high boiling point solvent such as oleylamine (ch(ch2)17nh2) and oleic acid (ch(ch2)16cooh) as a coordination solvent and capping agent, respectively. the size, distribution and shape were...

The effect of solvents on the spectra, absorption, or emission of substances is called solvatochromism; it is due to solute/solvent nonspecific and specific interactions, including dipole/dipole, dipole-induced/dipole, dispersion interactions, and hydrogen bonding. Thermo-solvatochromism refers to the effect of temperature on solvatochromism. The molecular structure of certain substances, polar...

We report biodetection of the thyroid hormone triiodothyranine (T3) using carbon nanotube field-effect transistors. T3 molecules bind non-covalently the semiconducting nanotube and donate electrons to the nanotube lattice, thereby altering its electronic characteristics via chemical doping. The effect is semi-reversible by rinsing the transistors with the T3 solvent without the biomolecule. The...
