The nano-particles synthesized were surface modified by stearic acid. An important operating variable in the Span 80-Tween 80/toluene/water reverse micro-emulsion system, the ω-value (water/surfactant molar ratio) was i...

Supercritical fluids extraction of emulsions (SEE) is an innovative technique used for the production of micro, nano-particles with controlled size and distribution. Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) is used to extract selectively the organic solvents from the droplets of the emulsion, in which the biopolymer is dissolved, producing the precipitation of the polymer and the subsequent format...

Nano-additives blended water-diesel emulsion fuel is the alternative fuel for compression ignition (CI) engine that reduce the NOx emission and at the same time increase the brake thermal efficiency due to combined effect of nanoparticles and micro explosion phenomenon of water diesel emulsion. This review paper addresses emulsion, emulsion types, micro-explosion phenomenon of water-diesel emul...

The aim of this study was to evaluate intraocular biodistribution of a fluorescent polymeric nanosystem composed of chitosan and gelatin after intravitreal administration in rat eyes. The nanoparticles based on chitosan and gelatin were synthesized using a reverse emulsion-double cross-linking technique (ionic and covalent) and their structural characteristics are presented. Two units of 1% sus...

Double metal cyanides (DMCs) are highly active recyclable heterogeneous catalysts for hydroamination of phenylacetylene with 4-isopropylaniline. The best hydroamination yields are obtained with Zn-Co DMCs, especially if the particle size is decreased by a reverse emulsion synthesis technique.

gallium extraction from jajarm bayer process liquor (jajarm, iran) was investigated using microemulsions. also the behavior of aluminum was studied as an impurity. kelex100 (4-ethyl, 1-methyl, 7-octyl, 8-hydroxyquinoleine), iso-decanol and n-butanol, and kerosene were used as the surfactant, co-surfactant, and oil phase, respectively. ternary phase diagrams were produced using various co-surfac...

silver-polyaniline (ag-pani) nanocomposites were prepared by in-situ oxidative polymerization of aniline monomer in sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (aot) solution as an emulsifier. the synthesis of silver-polyaniline nanocomposites was investigated as a function of several parameters such as aniline concentration, concentration of emulsifier (aot), concentration of oxidation agent and c...
