We have recently been able to grow single-walled carbon nanotubes by purely thermal chemical vapour deposition (CVD) at temperatures as low as 400 degrees C. This has been achieved by separating the catalyst pre-treatment step from the growth step. In the pre-treatment step, a thin film catalyst is re-arranged into a series of nano-droplets, which are then the active catalysts. Both steps have ...

the use of an inorganic phase in water-in-oil (w/o) microemulsion has recently received considerable attention for preparing metal oxide nanoparticles. this is a technique, which allows preparation of ultrafine metal oxide nanoparticles within the size range 40 to 80 nm. preparation of nano chromium (iii) oxide studied investigated in the inverse microemulsion system. therefore the nucleation o...

Nano sulfated titania was tested as solid acid heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of 4-(Trifluoromethyl) coumarin and coumarin derivatives under solvent-free condition. Factorial design evidenced a positive effect of reaction temperature, amount of catalyst, and solvents.  This nano-sized sulfated titania has been prepared by a sol-gel hydrothermal process. The prepared sulfated titania s...

Flammability properties of plasma pretreated cotton fabrics subjected to flame-retardant treatment were studied. Plasma pretreatment, using an atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ), was applied to cotton fabrics to enhance material properties, while retaining inherent advantages of the substrates. An organic phosphorus compound (flame-retardant agent, FR) together with a melamine resin (crossl...

in this investigation, nano silica chloride (nano sio2cl) has been found to be efficient, chemoselective and recyclable catalyst for facile and simple synthesis of germinal diacetates from aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes in shorter reaction durations. the products were obtained in high to excellent yields. this work consistently has the advantages of excellent yields, short reaction time,...

this research proposes an efficient and easy procedure for the preparation of amides or nitriles from aldehydes. such materials were prepared via one-pot three component condensation reaction of various aldehydes in the presence of nano-ticl4.sio2 as a catalyst under thermal conditions. all reactions proceeded in high yields and in a moderately short reaction time. meanwhile, oximes were obtain...
