Cellulose acetate (CA) nanoparticles were combined with two antimicrobial agents, namely lemongrass (LG) essential oil and Cu-ferrite nanoparticles. The preparation method of CA nanocapsules (NCs), with the two antimicrobial agents, was based on the nanoprecipitation method using the solvent/anti-solvent technique. Several physical and chemical analyses were performed to characterize the result...

The effect of different austenite grain size and different cooling rates on the austenite to ferrite transformation temperature and different ferrite morphologies in one Nb-microalloyed (HSLA) steel has been investigated. Three different austenite grain sizes were selected and cooled at two different cooling rates for obtaining austenite to ferrite transformation temperature. Moreover, samples ...

Ferrites with spinel structure are the most widespread materials in radio engineering, electronics and communication industry, microwave devices and computer facilities. The change of synthesis temperature of ferrites results in cation redistribution of iron, which updates crystal properties, as macroscopic magnetic properties of ferrites. Among this extensive class of compounds nickel and copp...

During this study, we report the green synthesis of  magnetic copper ferrite nanoparticles using tragacanth gum as a reducing and stabilizing agent by the sol-gel method. The green synthesized CuFe2O4 MNPs are characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and scanning electron microscopy...

The influence of various cations ranging from alkali metals to transition metals according to the periodic table were discussed. The ferrites used were Ni ferrite, Mg ferrite and Zn ferrite having different cation distributions in the spinel lattice. Cations having appropriate ionic radii and valencies are soluble in ferrite. Several additives formed other phase in addition to the spinel phase....
