2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazanomethylphenol (dnphmp) was immobilized onto silicate rice husk ash to form a heterogeneous catalyst denoted as rhdnph. the elemental and edx analysis of rhdnph showed the nitrogen is incorporated into silica. the rhdnph had 154.6 m2g-1 as a specific surface area. the ft-ir clearly showed the appearance of –nh and c=n absorption band at the expected range. the tga curve ...

In this study, La–Mn–Cr perovskite-type catalysts were synthesized as LaMnO3,LaCrO3, and LaMn0.5Cr0.5O3 by a microwave-assisted gel-combustion method. They were then calcined at 600oC for 5h in a...

in order to evaluate the adsorption potential of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) for benzene, toluene and xylenes (btx), the adsorption capacities of benzene and toluene on two different mwcnts were measured using a gas-chromatography (gc) and then compared with each other. fourier transform infrared (ftir) was employed to investigate the presence of functional groups on the carbon nanot...

In this research, zinc oxide quantum dots and graphene nanocomposites were synthesized via two different methods; In the first (direct) method, ZnO-graphene Nanocomposites were made mixing the synthesized zinc oxide and graphene. In the second (indirect) method, zinc nitrate, graphene, and sodium hydroxide were used to made ZnO-graphene Nanocomposites. XRD, FTIR and Raman spectroscopy analyses ...

The specific surface area as determined by BET analysis is often used for scaling mineral surface reaction capacities and rates between particles of different sizes as found in nature. Generally, an inverse proportionality between BET area and particle size is assumed, based on geometry. However, macroscopic laboratory studies of mineral surface reactions generally employ crushed material that ...

the phenylthiourea-substituted triethoxysilane as a silane agent was synthesized and grafted on highly ordered nanoporous silica (lus-1) with a textured morphology and hexagonal array. this material (tu-lus-1) contained 0.8 mmol/g of soft base phenylthiourea group and surface area 760 m2g-1 and was able to adsorb 0.75 mmolhg/g of tu-lus-1 in endothermic reaction.
