High-speed stirring at elevated temperatures is shown to be effective in the symmetry-breaking process needed for the growth of the hard-to-synthesize silver nanorods from the polyol reduction of silver ions. This process competes with the facile formation of more symmetrical, spherical and cubic, nanoparticles. Once the seed is formed, further growth proceeds predominantly along the long axis,...

Consider two unit balls in a d-dimensional flat torus with edge length r, for d ≥ 2. The balls do not move by themselves but they are pushed by a Brownian motion. The balls never intersect—they reflect if they touch. It is proved that the joint distribution of the processes representing the centers of the balls converges to the distribution of two independent Brownian motions when r →∞, assumin...

Recent numerical results show that if a scalar is mixed by periodically forced turbulence, the average mixing rate is directly affected for forcing frequencies small compared to the integral turbulence frequency. We elucidate this by an analytical study using simple turbulence models for spectral transfer. Adding a large amplitude modulation to the forcing of the velocity field enhances the ene...

By loading the reverberation chamber (RC) Rician fading can be generated. This paper shows K-factor is reduced by platform stirring. The platform stirring is also used to determine an average K-factor in the chamber, valid for an arbitrary fixed position of the antenna inside the chamber.

Abstract Hydroxyapatite (HAp) whiskers were prepared in reaction of calcium lactate pentahydrate and orthophosphoric acid. Synthesis carried out different conditions with using hydrothermal reactor. The benefit the technique is simple precise control HAp crystals morphology, which achieved by employing varying initial concentrations starting reagents as well synthesis. effect time synthesis, st...

BACKGROUND This study aims to investigate the influence of different stirring time for synthesis of silver nanoparticles in glutathione (GSH) aqueous solution. The silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) were prepared by green synthesis method using GSH as reducing agent and stabilizer, under moderate temperature at different stirring times. Silver nitrate (AgNO3) was taken as the metal precursor while A...

The present study deals with the decolorization of CI Acid Red SR (ARAN as a model contaminant from textileindustry using sawdust as an adsorbent. The effects of initial AR88 concentration, adsorbent dosage, pH. c not acttime and ',riming rah: wcrg studied in a batch mode. The variation of pH from 3 to 10 showed no considerablechange in decolorization rate. The desired conditions for decoloriza...

The aspire of this attempt was to design and evaluate aceclofenac loaded sustained release microspheres by emulsion solvent evaporation method, using different polymers like Ethyl cellulose (EC), Kollidon SR (KSR), Eudragit RS 100, Eudragit RL 100 and Hydroxypropylmethyl Cellulose (HPMC K100M). Microspheres were prepared using different stirring rate (1200, 1500, 2000rpm) and larger microsphere...
