dependent variables that were selected for study were, particle size (Y ) and % drug entrapment (Y ). The derived 1 2 polynomial equations were verified by check point formulation. The application of factorial design gave a statistically systematic approach for the formulation and optimization of nanoparticles with desired particle size, % drug release and high entrapment efficiency. Drug:polym...

The present study was carried out to investigate the potential of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNTs) and carboxylate group functionalized single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT-COOH) as alternative adsorbents for the removal of Basic Red 46 (BR 46) from contaminated water by using batch adsorption studies. Effects of some key operating parameters such as pH, ionic strength and contact time on...

Fe1-xO wüstite as negative electrode material for Li-ion batteries has been studied. The aim of this work is to get a better understanding of the insertion mechanism involved during reduction/oxidation processes. Electrochemical tests have been done in Swagelock TM cells and shown a high specific capacity of 800 Ah/kg for the first discharge. X-ray diffraction and 57 Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy p...

the removal of as(iii) ions from aqueous solutions has been investigated using silica ceramic under different experimental conditions of initial arsenite concentration, adsorbent dose, temperature and ph. better removal was obtained at temperature 25âºc and ph 7.5. the adsorption data have been explained in terms of langmuir and freundlich equations. the sorption kinetics was tested for the pse...

in the present investigation, shells of pistachio are used as adsorbents and they have been successfully used for the removal of blue 56, from water samples. the effect of various parameters such as: ph, amounts of adsorbents, size of adsorbent particles and contact time on removal processing were investigated. in this study freundlich absorption isotherms and langmuir were investigated . the e...

This paper studied Buckling analysis of porous truncated conical shell subjected to axial load. It is considered that a fluid undrained between porous material and the Porous material properties vary across the thickness of shell with a specific function also assumed that the edge of the shell is simply supported. The governing equations are based on the Sanders kinematics equations and the fir...

In this work, adsorption kinetics were investigated in order to remove the acid blue 62 off the aqueous solutions using mesoporous silicate SBA-15 loaded with tannic acid (tannin-SBA-15). Nitrogen adsorption and desorption test (BET), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis characterize synthesized composite. The impacts of some parameters such as P...

Coupling electron microscopy techniques with in situ heating ability allows us to study phase transformations on the single-nanoparticle level. We exploit this setup to study disorder-to-order transformation of Pt-Fe alloy nanoparticles, a material that is of great interest to fuel-cell electrocatalysis and ultrahigh density information storage. In contrast to earlier reports, we show that Fe (...

the aim of the present work was to assess the feasibility of accononmc8-2ep/nf as a bioadhesive material for developing controlled release gastroretentive microsponges of loratadine. modified emulsion-solvent diffusion method was employed for the preparation of microsponges (f1-f9) based on 32 factorial design. the amount of ethyl cellulose (ec) and polyvinyl alcohol (pva) were selected as inde...
