this paper discusses about preparation of biodegradable polymer /clay nanocomposites based on organically modified montmorillonite clay; i.e. cloisite 10a and biodegradable polymer chitosan by solution mixing technique and their characterization. the nanocomposites were successfully prepared and their structures were characterized by powder x-ray diffraction (xrd), particle size analyzer (beckm...

tio2 /fe3o4 nanocomposites with various tio2:fe3o4 ratios were synthesized by an ultrasonic-assisted deposition-precipitation method and their uv-light decolorization of congo dye and magnetic separation were investigated. the nanocomposite samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (sem), powder x-ray diffraction (xrd), surface area analayzer (bet) and fourier transform infrare...

In this research an efficient synthesis of a novel nanocomposite including SiO2@(3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane-coated cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanocomposite has been reported by three step method. The structure and magnetic characterization of Co3O4@SiO2@NH2 have been done by using various spectroscopic analyses which include FT-IR, X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmissi...

three high-silica mordenite zeolites differing in sio440, ratio were prepared by direct synthesis without using any template. the products si02/a120, ratio is influenced by the starting gel composition. this ratio is increased upon ion-exchange with nh,cl and subsequent calcination to prepare protonic mordenite. the protonic mordenites with si02/a1203ra tios of 14.6,29.2 and 34.6 were character...

A new nano-sized cobalt(II) coordination polymer, (CoL1).0.5DMF.1.5CH3OH(1); [H2L1 = 5-(4-Carboxy phenyl azo) salicyilic acid] has been synthesized by a sonochemical method. The thermal stability of compound 1 was studied by thermo- gravimetric and differential thermal analyses. Nano-structure of this coordination polymer was characterized by elementa...

Cobalt Oxide/ Zinc Oxide nanocomposite was synthesized by dropwise addition ofCo(NO)3.6H2O and Zn(NO3)2.4H2O solutions to KOH solution at different temperatures followed bycalcination at 300ºC for 4 h. The morphology and structure of nanoparticles and the influence oftemperature on particle size were studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-RayDiffraction (XRD). Minimum particle s...

Nanocomposite composed of organoclay )Cloisite 20A-C20A) and Poly lactic acid (PLA) was prepared by solvent casting method. Physical, mechanical, thermal, barrier and microstructure properties of the composite were studied. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images revealed that the diffraction peak of nanoclay shifted to lower angles and the d-spacing betwe...

in  this  reaserch,  photocatalyst  titanium  dioxide  was  doped  with silver  and modified  by  polyethylene  glycol  by  sol  gel method  and the  samples  were  characterized  by  x-ray  diffraction  (xrd)  and scanning  electron  microscopy  (sem).  the  purpose  of  the  present study  was  to  evaluate  the  photocatalytic  bactericidal  effects  of prepared nanocomposite on human pathog...

in this paper we report synthesis of fe2tio5-5a zeolite (z5a) nanocomposites with 5%, 10% and 20% weight percent of fe2tio5 in 5a zeolite in stearic acid media after calcination of the gel samples obtained at 600-900°c for 2 hrs. the powder x-ray diffraction (xrd) patterns have been used for characterization of the prepared samples. the scanning electron microscopy (sem) images and x-ray energy...
