Single crystal dixanthinium tetrachlorozincate has been grown from dilute chloridric acid. Polarized Raman spectrum of the single crystalline sample, FT-Raman and FT-IR spectra of the polycrystalline samples have been examined and the bands assigned to the appropriate modes predicted by a factor group analysis for the space group Pmn21. The crystal structure has been confirmed by powder XRD mea...

This work was sparked by the reported identification of man-made cellulosic fibers (rayon/viscose) in the marine environment as a major fraction of plastic litter by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) transmission spectroscopy and library search. To assess the plausibility of such findings, both natural and man-made fibers were examined using FT-IR spectroscopy. Spectra acquired by transmission...

in this paper, the chemical functionalization of carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwnt-cooh) by 1,2-phenylenediamine, have been investigated. mwnt-benzimidazole is obtained through mwnt-amide reaction with pocl3 after 72h, which is confirmed by ft-ir, sem, tga, and elemental analysis. these functionalizations have been chosen due to –nh2 and nhco active sites in mwnt-amide for future...

Triphenyl phosphate (TPP) is a triester of phosphoric acid and phenol. It is commonly used as a fire-retarding agent and plasticizer for nitrocellulose and cellulose acetate. The present study was an attempt to evaluate the impact of biofield treatment on physicochemical and spectroscopic properties of TPP. The study was carried out in two groups i.e. control and treatment. The treatment group ...
