the synthesis of nanocrystalline fe3al powder by mechanical alloying as well as the structural ordering of the synthesized fe3al particles during the subsequent thermal analysis were investigated. mechanical alloying was performed up to 100 hours using a planetary ball mill apparatus with rotational speed of 300 rpm under argon atmosphere at ambient temperature. the synthesized powders were cha...

This article offers a short scholarly reflection on the 20th international conference of Utopian Studies Society, themed around utopia, dystopia and climate change, hosted by Monash University’s European centre in Prato, Italy. Engaging with numerous threads which emerged organically across multiple panels, this positions notions resistance, activism within heart conference’s focus. In doing so...

Microwave-assisted organic synthesis is an enabling technology for accelerating drug discovery and development processes. Microwave organic synthesis opens up new opportunities to the synthetic chemist in the form of new reaction that are not possible by conventional heating and serve a flexible platform for chemical reaction. This review focuses on the advances in the developing of innovative ...

A green and convenient méthode for the synthesis of  a variety of xanthene derivatives by condensation reaction between aldehydes and β-naphthol or dimedone in an micellar solution of sodium dodecylphosphonate is described. This method offers several advantages, such as using of a cheap and environmentally benign reaction media, low loadings of sodium dodecylphosphonate as catalyst and...

A one-step synthesis of FePt nanoparticles is reported. The size, composition, and shape of the particles are controlled by varying the synthetic parameters such as molar ratio of stabilizers to metal precursor, addition sequence of the stabilizers and metal precursors, heating rate, heating temperature, and heating duration. An assembly of large (6 nm or greater) FePt nanoparticles, especially...

intermetallic phase formation and oxidation reaction during combustion synthesis (cs) of ni-ti equiatomic mixture are affected by mechanical activation (ma) and pre-heating conditions. important parameters are ignition time, reaction duration, temperature rise, microstructural change, titanium oxidation and intermetallic phase formation. superelasticity and shape memory effects are influenced b...
