Thermolysis of waste plastics in an inert atmosphere has been gazed at as a useful method, because this technique can convert waste plastics into hydrocarbons that can be used either as fuels or as other valued chemicals. In this work, waste polyethylene (PE) was chosen as the raw material for thermolysis. A well designed semi batch reactor has been used for thermolysis of waste polyethylene (P...

AIMS A simple and rapid method (designated thermolysis) for extracting genomic DNA from bulk fungal strains was described. METHODS AND RESULTS In the thermolysis method, a few mycelia or yeast cells were first rinsed with pure water to remove potential PCR inhibitors and then incubated in a lysis buffer at 85 degrees C to break down cell walls and membranes. This method was used to extract ge...

in this paper, an energetic coordination compound namely pentamminenitratocobalt(iii) nitrate, [co(nh3)5(no3)](no3)2, was used as a new precursor for the preparation of co3o4 nanoparticles. the results showed that the complex is easily decomposed into the co3o4 nanoparticles at low temperature (200 °c) without employing a surfactant or solvent and any complicated equipment. the product was char...

A symmetrical alpha,omega-substituted sexithiophene derivative containing thermally removable branched ester solubilizing groups has been prepared. These oligomers can be solution cast into thin films and then thermolyzed to remove the solubilizing group, leaving short pendant alkene groups on the oligomer. Device testing of thin film transistors shows an increase in hole mobility from 1 x 10-5...

A simple and general method is reported to tune the multicolour output of lanthanide-ion doped NaYF(4) upconversion nanoparticles within a given composition by controlling the reaction temperature in the thermolysis procedure.

Thermolyzed casein is known to promote the growth of aberrant crypt foci (ACF) and colon cancer when it is fed to rats that have been initiated with azoxymethane. We speculated that the promotion was a consequence of increased colonic protein fermentation (i.e., that the thermolysis of the casein decreases its digestibility, increases the amount of protein reaching the colon, and increases colo...

Herein, for the first time, we report a generalized strategy for the successful synthesis of highly crystalline metal and metal oxide nanoparticles embedded in a carbon matrix by the controlled thermolysis of metal organic frameworks (MOFs). The rationalized synthesis strategy of a broad range of metal and metal oxides nanoparticles, such as Cu/CuO, Co/Co(3)O(4), ZnO, Mn(2)O(3), MgO and CdS/CdO...

This review describes recent research in the development of tank systems based on complex metal hydrides for thermolysis and hydrolysis. Commercial applications using complex metal hydrides are limited, especially for thermolysis-based systems where so far only demonstration projects have been performed. Hydrolysis-based systems find their way in space, naval, military and defense applications ...

Thermolysis of the single source precursor (Et2Bi)2Te in DIPB at 80 °C yielded phase-pure Bi4Te3 nanoparticles, while mixtures of Bi4Te3 and elemental Bi were formed at higher temperatures. In contrast, cubic Bi2Te particles were obtained by thermal decomposition of Et2BiTeEt in DIPB. Moreover, a dual source approach (hot injection method) using the reaction of Te(SiEt3)2 and Bi(NMe2)3 was appl...

We report a comparative study of two DNA extraction techniques, thermolysis and chemical lysis (CTAB), for molecular identification and genotyping of M. tuberculosis. Forty DNA samples were subjected to PCR and the results demonstrated that with thermolysis it is possible to obtain useful data that enables fast identification and genotyping.
