in this study, isophthalic acid-zirconium(iv) nanocomposite has been prepared from zirconyl nitrate pentahydrate and potassium iodide, with isophthalic acid, (c8h6o4=benzene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid) as a ligand, via sonochemical method in ethylene glycol and methanol as solvents. the crystalline tetragonal zro2 has been produced by thermal decomposition of isophthalic acid-zirconium(iv) nanocompo...

in this investigation, we report facile synthesis of cadmium(ii)-thioacetamide nanocomposites in the presence and absence of polyvinyl alcohol under ultrasonic irradiations, using cadmium acetate dihydrate (cd(ch3coo)2.2h2o), potassium iodide (ki), thioacetamide (taa, ch3csnh2), and polyvinyl alcohol (pva) as the starting materials. results show that in the presence of polyvinyl alcohol size...

A continuous flow sonochemical reactor was developed capable of producing metastable cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanoplatelets with thicknesses at or below 10nm. The continuous flow sonochemical reactor included the passive in-line micromixing of reagents prior to sonochemical reaction. Synthesis results were compared with those from reactors involving batch conventional heating and batch ultrasound-...

Little is known about the efficacy of pulsed ultrasound compared with continuous ultrasound. Previous studies on the efficacy of pulsed ultrasound were not systematic and gave different results. In this study, the effects of pulse length, pulse interval, pulse length × pulse intervals, and treatment time on sonochemical activity were investigated using a simple oxidation of iodide method and a ...

in the current study, synthesis and characterization of a new nano-structured zirconium(iv)-minoxidil complex (1), where minoxidil, (c9h15n5o; 6-(1-piperidinyl)-2,4-pyrimidinediamine 3-oxide), have been investigated in two different solvents. the compound 1 has been synthesized by sonochemical method in the presence of methanol and monoethylene glycol (meg) as solvents and characterized by scan...

this research reports a facile ultrasonic approach for the synthesis of iron vanadate (fevo4) nanoparticles with the aid of ammonium metavanadate (nh4vo3) and fe(no3)3.9h2o as the starting reagents without adding external surfactant, capping agent or template in an aqueous solution. furthermore, to examine the solar cell application of as-synthesized iron vanadate (fevo4) nanoparticles, fto/tio...

High quality MOF-5 crystals of 5-25 mum in size were prepared for the first time using a sonochemical method in substantially reduced synthesis time (ca. 30 min) compared with conventional solvothermal synthesis (24 h).

The aim of this study was to obtain nanocrystalline mixed metal-oxide-ZrO₂ catalysts via a sonochemically-induced preparation method. The effect of a stabiliser's addition on the catalyst parameters was investigated by several characterisation methods including X-ray Diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption, X-ray fluorescence (XRF), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispers...

We report a sonochemical method of functionalizing superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES). Mechanical stirring, localized hot spots and other unique conditions generated by an acoustic cavitation (sonochemical) process were found to induce a rapid silanization reaction between SPION and APTES. FTIR, XPS and XRD measurements were used to de...

in this paper, undopedzno and co-znonano structureswith different molar ratio of cobalt have been synthesized by the sonochemical method. structure have been characterized by fourier transform (ftir) and uv–vis spectroscopy,scanning electron microscopy (sem), energy dispersive analytical x-ray (edax), and x-ray diffraction (xrd) methods. moreover, the direct band gap has been calculated by tauc...
