Silver oxide (Ag2O) nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized through several methods, namely sol-gel, sonochemical, and biological methods. X-ray diffraction studies revealed that the sonochemical method produces silver with high phase purity, then sol-gel another phase, crystals, while Ag3PO4 from precursor media. The research showed had smallest crystallite particle sizes of 9.5 232.7...

in the current study, synthesis and characterization of a new nano-structured zirconium(iv)-minoxidil complex (1), where minoxidil, (c9h15n5o; 6-(1-piperidinyl)-2,4-pyrimidinediamine 3-oxide), have been investigated in two different solvents. the compound 1 has been synthesized by sonochemical method in the presence of methanol and monoethylene glycol (meg) as solvents and characterized by scan...

A sonochemical Materials Acceleration Platform was implemented to synthesize CdSe nanocrystals under 625 unique conditions (in triplicate) in less than 6 weeks. The modularity of the workflow is adaptable a variety applications.

The behavior of Pu(iv) and Pu(iii) was investigated in aqueous nitric solutions under ultrasound irradiation (Ar, 20 kHz). In the absence of anti-nitrous reagents, ultrasound has no effect on Pu(iv), while Pu(iii) can be rapidly oxidized to Pu(iv) due to the autocatalytic formation of HNO(2) induced by HNO(3) sonolysis. In the presence of anti-nitrous reagents (sulfamic acid or hydrazinium nitr...

Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOP) using ozone, H2O2, ultrasound (US), ultraviolet radiation (UV), Fenton’s reagent (FeII+H2O2) alone or in combination involving hydroxyl radicals are considered as possible methods of clean and ecologically safe remedial treatment for the degradation of organics. In the present study, comparison of kinetics of photochemical, sonochemical and chemical oxidation ...

background: organophosphorus pesticides are one of the most prevalent usages for pest control in the country. such pesti­cides enter into water sources by different routes. since drinking of contaminated water at the higher doses than the standard level, may causes undesirable effects to human health and ecosystem. the object of this research was to investigate the ef­fect of various parameters...
