An efficient and green protocol for the synthesis of αaminonitriles derivatives by one-pot reaction of different aldehydes with amines and trimethylsilyl cyanides has been developed using natural alumina, alumina sulfuric acid (ASA), nano-γ-alumina, nanoalumina sulfuric acid (nano-ASA) under microwave irradiation and solvent-free conditions. The advantages of methods are short reaction times, h...

This paper presents the findings of a study on adsorption of dichlorodiphenythreechloroethen (DDT) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) on three nanomaterials including Multi walled Carbon Nanotube (MWNT), nano-clay and nano-alumina. DDT and PCBs are of significant concern due their high toxicity and long environmental half-lives. Experiments were conducted using batch adsorption procedures at ...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of nano-structured alumina surface coating on shear bond strength between Y-TZP ceramic and various dual-cured resin cements. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 90 disk-shaped zirconia specimens (HASS CO., Gangneung, Korea) were divided into three groups by surface treatment method: (1) airborne particle abrasion, (2) tribochemicalsil...

The main aim of this paper was to determine the amount of Al2O3 reinforcement that results into best combination of strength. Magnesium nano composites containing 3.5, 7.0 and 14 volume percentage of Al2O3 were synthesized through powder metallurgy route. Resistance of furnace sintering technique (heating rate: 49°C/min).Micro structural characterization revealed reasonably uniform distribution...

Additions of high modulus nano particles to Aluminum alloys offer the potential to develop a lightweight composite with high mechanical properties. It is extremely difficult to disperse nano-sized ceramic particles uniformly in molten metal. In order to investigate the effect of nano-alumina on the microstructure and mechanical properties of composite, a new method was used in stir casting to a...

aluminum sulfate nano structures have been prepared by solution combustion synthesis using aluminum nitrate nonahydrate (al(no3)3.9h2o) and ammonium sulfate ((nh4)2so4). the resultant aluminum sulfate nano structures were calcined at different temperatures to study thermal  decomposition of aluminum sulfate. the crystallinity and phase of  the as-synthesized and calcined samples were characteri...

ceramic dental materials have been considered as alternatives to metals for dental implants application. in this respect, zirconia tetragonal stabilized with %3 yttrium, is of great importance among the ceramic materials for endosseous dental implant application. because of its good mechanical properties and color similar to tooth. the aim and novelty of this study was to design and prepare y-t...

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 ...

Synthesis of nano-crystalline alumina powder by a chemical pyrophoric reaction using citric acid and ammonia was investigated by varying the pH of the precursor solution, which played an important role in controlling the morphology of the synthesised powder. The flaky morphology obtained at pH = 2 could be modified to fine desegregated particulate form by varying the pH of the solution to 10. T...

Although in recent years, welding of polymers has been developed but welding of polycarbonates is still faced with serious challenges such as improving the quality of welded section. In the present study, mechanical properties of polycarbonate friction stir welded samples with different nano alumina content were investigated. For this purpose, firstly polycarbonate (as matrix) was melt compound...
