The aim of this study is to obtain polysaccharide (Glucose, Fructose and Sucrose) stabilized superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) by Co-Precipitation method. As prepared iron oxide nanoparticles have been characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, UV–Vis NIR spectroscopy, High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscope (HRTEM) and V...

In this work, we report synthesis of surface modified superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) by co-precipitation method using FeSO4.7H2O and Fe2(SO4)3.5H2O as precursors and trisodium citrate dihydrate as surfactant. Surface modification of the as prepared samples was performed in pot by sol-gel precipitation method u...

Composites of hydroxyapatite and poly(ethylene terephthalate) bearing carboxylate groups were prepared by coprecipitation in water. The fracture energy the compact was four times larger after immersion water at 37 °C for 1 week.

Organic matter (OM)-mineral complexation plays a critical role in soil carbon (C) stabilization. However, direct investigations of organo-mineral associations have been hampered by a lack of methods that can simultaneously characterize soil organic matter and soil minerals. We have applied scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM), combined with near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NE...

Humic acids (HA) have a colloidal character whose size and negative charge are strictly dependent on surface functional groups. They are able to complex large amount of poorly ordered iron (hydr)oxides in soil as a function of pH and other environmental conditions. Accordingly, with the present study we intend to assess the colloidal properties of Fe(II) coprecipitated with humic acids (HA) and...

In the absence of oxidizing or reducing agents the chromatographic and coprecipitation behavior of element 102 is similar to that of the alkaline earth elements. After oxidation with ceric ions, the behavior is that expected of a trivalent actinide. Nobelium is the first actinide for which the +2 oxidation state is the most stable species in aqueous solution.

A novel method for synthesizing large scorodite (FeAsO4.2H2O) particles was recently developed for the fixation of arsenic. This method involves the coprecipitation of scorodite particles from an Fe(II) and As(V) aqueous solution at approximately 95 C by oxygen injection. In order to understand the process of coprecipitation of scorodite particles by this method, X-ray diffractometry (XRD), sca...
