Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATIONOF ORGANIC FUNCTIONALIZED MESOPOROUS SILICA AND EVALUATE THEIR ADSORPTIVE BEHAVIOR FOR REMOVAL OF METHYLENE BLUE FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTIONSameer H. Kareem, Inaam H. Ali, M. G. JalhoomThree Mesoporous Silica (MPS) with different functional groups were prepared by one-step synthesis based on the simultaneous hydrolysis and condensation of tetraethoxy silane with organo-silane in the presence of template surfactant Polydimethylsiloxane-Polyethyleneoxide (PDMS-PEO). The prepared materials were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and nitrogen adsorption-desorption experiments. The results indicate that the preparation of methyl and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2014 · 7,291 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAttenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier-Transform Infrared Microspectroscopy a Rapid Method for Microbial Strain CharacterizationMeshref Awad AlruwailiFourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and BHI 50CH were used to identify bacteria of the Lactobacillus (L.) at the species level. A previously developed method for measuring FTIR spectra and a strategy for their analysis provided the basis for selecting the FTIR spectra of reference bacterial strains and created a spectral library. The research was launched in which the spectra collected … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 8 Jun 2013 · 7,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis of Baso4 Nanoparticles by Precipitation Method Using Polycarboxylate as a ModifierMohamed El-Shahate Ismaiel Saraya, Inas Mostafa BakrProblem statement: Barium Sulfate (BaSO4) is suitable for many applications because of its whiteness, inertness and high specific gravity. Approach: Nanoparticles of barium sulphate (BaSO4) have been synthesized from barium nitrate by precipitation method in the presence of water soluble organic polycarboxylic polymer as a modifying agent. Transmission electron microscopy, Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray powder … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Jul 2011 · 15,711 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupercritical Ethanol Liquefaction of Swine Manure for Bio-Oils ProductionShuangning Xiu, Abolghasem Shahbazi, Lijun Wang, Carlington W. WallaceProblem statement: Environmental problems associated with animal waste are the most critical challenges faced by the US intensive confinement livestock industries. There is an import and urgent need to develop an efficient way to reduce the pollution of animal waste while extracting valuable energy. Supercritical liquefaction processing of swine manure into a liquid fuel was considered as a cost-effective approach … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,253 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Silver/Clay/Chitosan Bionanocomposites by UV-Irradiation MethodMansor Bin Ahmad, Kamyar Shameli, Majid Darroudi et al.Problem statement: Silver/Montmorillonite/Chitosan Bionanocomposites (Ag/MMT/Cts BNCs) have been synthesized by UV-irradiation reduction method in the absence of any reducing agent or heat treatment which is used to antibacterial application and medical devices. Approach: MMT, Chitosan and AgNO3 were used as a solid support, stabilizer and silver precursor, respectively. The properties of Ag/MMT/Cts BNCs were studied as a function of UV-irradiation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,819 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatic and Dynamic Mechanical Behavior of Hydroxyapatite-Polyacrylic Acid Composites Under Simulated Body FluidKalpana S. Katti, Phanikumar Turlapati, Devendra Verma et al.In this work, we have investigated mechanical response of hydroxyapatite/polyacrylic composites under dry, wet and simulated body fluid conditions. Hydroxyapatite (HAP) is mineralized under two conditions; one, in presence of polyacrylic acid (in situ HAP), second, in absence of polyacrylic acid (ex situ HAP). Further, in situ and ex situ HAP are mixed with polyacrylic acid to make HAP/PAAc composites. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,402 accessesView PDFCite
