The nitrogen doped TiO2 as heterogeneous photocatalyst via sol-gel method were successfully synthesized. The physicochemical, morphological and textural characteristics of the obtained TiO2 samples were characterized by advanced analysis techniques. The photocatalytic activity of the samples were evaluated for degradation of 4-CP under solar irradiation. The as-synthesized photocatalysts were c...

Natural mesolite type zeolite was collected, modified by sulfuric acid treatment and characterized by using Powder-X ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR).Temperature programmed ammonia desorption (NH3-TPD), Brunauer-Emmer-Teller (BET) surface area analysis.  Modified dealuminat...

The Fe-MCM-22 zeolite was found to be an efficient solid heterogeneous catalyst for synthesis of dihydropyrano [2,3-c] pyrazoles via one pot four component reaction of ethyl acetoacetate, hydrazine hydrate, aromatic aldehyde and malononitrile in aqueous alcohol. The catalyst was synthesized by hydrothermal method under autogenous pressure and modified by Fe (III) ion exchange. The prepared cata...

The acid oxidation of carbon nanotube generally results in opening the close ends of the nanotube and to make surface modifications. Herewith, Multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were oxidized in acids at high temperature experimental conditions which led to the formation of graphene quantum dots (GQDs).   High resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectro...

As an alternative to chromate conversion coatings, rare-earth coatings especially cerium, because of the low toxicity, have attracted considerable attention. Using dip immersion method, cerium-based conversion coating was deposited on aluminum 2024. Corrosion resistance was studied in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and surface ...

In recent years, green synthesis of nanoparticles has attracted a great attention because of medicine and biological applications. In this work, bismuth oxide nanoparticles (Bi2O3 NP) was prepared via green synthesis using mentha pulegium aqueous extract after 24 h at 90°C. The product was characterized by ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) spectrophotometer, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray ...

biocl microflowers were synthesized using bismuth nitrate pentahydrate and sodium chloride by microwave (mw) assisted synthesis method for 23 minutes at 180 w. scanning electron microscopy (sem) studies revealed a unique morphology of flower-like assemblies comprised of nanosheets. the x-ray diffraction (xrd) pattern showed that a highly pure and crystalline phase has been obtained. the energy ...

Identification and characterization play an essential role in the study of non-metallic inclusions (NMIs) monitoring steel casting process product quality. This uses Raman spectroscopy, a versatile, relatively fast, non-destructive technique for characterizing oxide sulfide-based inclusion phases samples. The relative peak intensities positions were used to qualitatively estimate Al2O3, CA, C12...
