Nanostructured Au nano-platelets have been synthesized from an Au(III) complex by growth process triggered by nanodiamond (ND). An electroless synthetic route has been used to obtain 2D Au/ND architectures, where individual nanodiamond particles are intimately embedded into face-centered cubic Au platelets. The combined use of high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) and select...

efforts to increase the mass transfer coefficient, enhance the contact area, and decrease the power input of contractors have given risen to the development of the pre-dispersed solvent extraction (pdse) contactor and the devise of the new dissolved nitrogen pdse (dnpdse) contactors. the studies conducted after the design of the new contactor to determine the working conditions for its suitable...

Among the various requirements that high voltage direct current (HVDC) insulation materials need to satisfy, sufficiently low electrical conductivity is one of most important. The leading commercial HVDC material currently an exceptionally clean cross-linked low-density polyethylene (XLPE). Previous studies have reported DC-conductivity (LDPE) can be markedly reduced either by including a fract...

Nanodiamond is a promising carbon nanomaterial developed for biomedical applications. Here, we show fluorescent nanodiamond (FND) with the biocompatible properties that can be used for the labeling and tracking of neuronal differentiation and neuron cells derived from embryonal carcinoma stem (ECS) cells. The fluorescence intensities of FNDs were increased by treatment with FNDs in both the mou...

The negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy colour center (NV(-) center) in nanodiamond is an excellent single photon source due to its stable photon generation in ambient conditions, optically addressable nuclear spin state, high quantum yield and its availability in nanometer sized crystals. In order to make practical devices using nanodiamond, highly efficient and directional emission of single ...

In this paper, in addition to some elementary facts about the ultra-groups, which their structure based on the properties of the transversal of a subgroup of a group, we focus on the relation between a group and an ultra-group. It is verified that every group is an ultra-group, but the converse is not true generally. We present the conditions under which, for every normal subultra-group of an u...

Blends of LLDPE and LDPE combine the favorable mechanical properties of the LLDPE with the ease of processing of LDPE. Yet, the melt rheological consequences of blending LLDPE and LDPE have received far less attention than have linear/linear or linear/ branched blends (1). Previous reports showed that blends of LLDPE/LDPE were either immiscible or partially miscible (2–5). Considering the compo...

Thin-film composite (TFC) membranes show great potential in dye nanofiltration but their performance still required further improvement. In this work, ultra-small EMT zeolite nanocrystals were embedded into the interfacial polymerized polyamide (PA) layer supported on porous nylon via spray dispersion method and used separation. Ultra-small nanosized crystals with plate-like morphology synthesi...
