in this work, so3h-functionalizedphthalimide (sfp) as a so3h-containing solid acid is prepared by the reaction of phthalimide with chlorosulfonic acid, and characterized by ft-ir, 1h and 13c nmr, mass, tg, dtg, xrd and sem. then, it is utilized as a highly efficient, heterogeneous and green catalyst for the one-pot multi-component condensation of dimedone with arylaldehydes, β-ketoesters and am...

Tri-block copolymer styrene-butadiene (SBS) is extensively applied in bituminous highway construction due to its high elasticity and excellent weather resistance. With the extension of time, tri-block structural SBS automatically degrades into bi-block structural SB- with some terminal oxygen-containing groups under the comprehensive effects of light, heat, oxygen, etc. In this paper, the effec...

pure barium zirconate nanopowders were successfully prepared in wet-chemistry synthesismethod, using barium stearate and tetra-n-butyl zirconate as ba, zr sources and stearic acid ascomplexing reagent. the gel was calcined at 800 and 900 °c in air. results of thermal analysisare given, including both dtg and tg. fourier transform infrared spectrometry (ftir), x-raydiffraction (xrd), transmissio...

Biomass is usually considered as different types of lignocellulosic materials having varied composition potential to utilize in the useful forms energy a substitute conventional fossil fuels. Algal biomass has multi facet application research and development such source nutrients, biochemical, cosmetics biofuels. However, this newly developed met requirement low medium scale power generation du...

The behaviour of poly(methyl methacrylate) was examined in the presence of phosphorus tribromide (PBr3) with varying concentrations. Films were cast from common solvent and subjected to TG, DTA, DTG, IR and Py-GC-MS for evaluating the degradation routes. Despite early decomposition of the blends, certain temperature zones were identified for stabilization of the system. New products were found ...

Knowledge of the glass transition temperatures (Tgs) as function of composition reflects miscibility (or lack of it) and is decisive for virtually all properties of polymer-based materials. In this article, we analyze single blend-average and effective Tgs of miscible polymer blends in full concentration ranges. Shortcomings of the extant equations are discussed to support the need for an alter...

Complexes of vitamin A as a pharmaceutical ligand with Ca(II), Mg(II), Zn(II), Fe(III) and VO(II), were synthesized and characterized by microanalysis, conductance, infrared and thermogravimetric (TG/DTG and DTA) measurements. The ligand can be coordinated as a monodentate ligand via the oxygen atom of the deprotonated hydroxyl group. Thermal degradation curves revealed that the uncoordinated w...
