Silver nano-particles have been used for antibacterial purpose and it is also believed to have removal of odorous compounds, oxidation capacity as a metal catalyst. In this study, silver nano-particles in nano sizes (5-30 nm) were prepared on the surface of NaHCO3, the supporting material, using a sputtering method that provided high silver content and minimized conglomerating problems observed...

Nano-sized, nonreacting, noncoarsening ZrO2 particles reinforced Sn–3.0 wt%Ag–0.5 wt%Cu composite solders were prepared by mechanically dispersing ZrO2 nano-particles into Sn–Ag–Cu solder. The interfacial morphology of unreinforced Sn–Ag–Cu solder and solder joints containing ZrO2 nano-particles with Au/Ni metallized Cu pads on ball grid array (BGA) substrates and the distribution of reinforcin...

in order to study of nutritional role of silicon nano-particles on physiological characteristics of minituber potato production an experiment was carried out as  factorial based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications in hydroponic culture at ferdowsi university, mashhad. treatments were included particle size of sodium silicate (nano and micro) and concentrations in levels...

New types of porphyrin nano- and micro-particles composed of J- and H-heteroaggregates were prepared by electrostatic self-assembly of two oppositely charged porphyrins, tetrakis(4-trimethylammoniophenyl)porphyrin (H2TAPP4+) and tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin cobalt(II) (CoTPPS4-), in aqueous solutions. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images showed novel morphology and size distrib...

Semiconductor crystals smaller than about 10 nm, known as quantum dots, have properties that differ from large samples, including a band gap that becomes larger for smaller particles. These properties create several applications for quantum dots. In this paper new shapes of quantum dot arrays are used to enhance the photo physical properties of gold nano-particles. This paper presents a study o...

Nanotechnology is one of the most important technologies that enter into multiple fields, as it depends on synthesis particles with nano scale called nanoparticles (NPs).  Biosynthesis can be done using plants or microorganisms; however, NPs microorganisms economical and an ecofriendly method. This review article provides highlights latest studies diverse such as; bacteria, actinobacteria, fung...

Polyurethane-based micro- and nano-hybrid composites were produced with controlled porosity to be used as obturation materials. In addition to hydroxyapatite (HAp) micro-particles in the composites, two different ceramics particle types were also added: alumina micro-particles and silica nano-particles. Particles of different sizes provide the materials with improved mechanical properties: the ...
