Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemoval of Copper from Aqueous Solution using Tunisian ClayN. Boujelben, S. Gharab, F. Bouhamed et al.Natural adsorbents such as clay was used to replace expensive imported synthetic adsorbents. In this study, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques were used to characterize the used sorbent (clays C). Batch experiments were performed to evaluate the effects of contact time, solution pH and temperature on copper removal onto used sorbent from aqueous solution. Equilibrium … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2015 · 7,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeposition and Characterization of CdS Nano Thin Film with Complexing Agent TriethanolamineK. Manikandan, C. Surendra Dilip, P. Mani, J. Joseph PrinceThe equimolar concentration thin films of Cadmium Sulfide (CdxSx) with the complexing agent TEA were deposited on a glass substrate by the SILAR technique. The crystalline nature with face centered cubic crystal system of the CdS films is determined from X-ray diffraction analysis. The broadened diffraction peaks indicated nano sized particles of the film materials. The surface morphology of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 1 Jun 2015 · 8,419 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFacile Synthesis of AgCl Hollow Nanospheres for Enhanced Photocatalytic PropertiesJing Chen, Yuling Zhao, Xinhui Liu et al.AgCl hollow nanospheres have been synthesized successfully via a hard-template approach using silica nanospheres as hard template for the first time. The phase, size and morphology of the as-prepared AgCl were investigated by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM); which reveals that the cubic AgCl hollow nanospheres with a cell constant a = 5.549 Å are 220 nm … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 22 May 2015 · 7,350 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRaman Spectroscopy of Protein Crystal Nucleation and GrowthPechkova Eugenia, Maksimov, Georgy et al.Using Raman spectroscopy and the lysozyme as model system, we investigate the differences in protein conformation before and after Langmuir-Blodgett nanotemplate-induced crystal nucleation and growth. It was found, that the main difference in lysozyme conformation is associated to the higher amount of S-S bonds in lysozyme of LB crystals, probably in C-end of protein, resulting in the higher stiffness of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 8 Dec 2014 · 8,275 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynchrotron Powder Diffraction Study of Radiation Damage in Langmuir Blodgett Nanotemplate Crystallised ProteinJonathan P. Wright, Eugenia Pechkova, Claudio NicoliniPolycrystalline samples of lysozyme were prepared with and without a Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) thin film template via both the hanging drop method and batch crystallisation. Powder diffraction methods are used to compare these samples and to measure their resistance to radiation damage at room temperature. The X-ray induced amorphisation of the samples was followed as a function of time and it … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 12 Nov 2014 · 8,175 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NEW THERMAL PROCESS FOR THE RECOVERY OF METALS FROM ZINC-CARBON AND ALKALINE SPENT BATTERIESGirolamo Belardi, Roberto Lavecchia, Franco Medici et al.The aim of this study is the thermal recovery of manganese and zinc from a mixture of zinc-carbon and alkaline spent batteries containing 40.9% of Mn and 30.1% of Zn after a preliminary physical treatment. Separation of the metals is carried out on the basis of their different phase change temperatures, the boiling point of zinc being 906°C and 1564°C … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 26 Jul 2014 · 6,981 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSIMULTANEOUS OPTIMISATION OF DRYING PARAMETERS OF CERAMIC BODIESSalah Mahmoudi, Ezzeddine Srasra, Fouad ZargouniThis study deals with the mineralogical, physico-chemical and geotechnical analyses of representative Aptian clays in the north-east of Tunisia. X-ray diffraction reveals a predominance of illite (50-60 wt.%) associated to kaolinite and interstratified illite/smectite. The accessory minerals detected in raw materials are quartz, calcite and Na-feldspar. The average amounts of silica, alumina and alkalis are 52, 20 and 3.5 wt.%, … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 1 Jul 2014 · 6,991 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractORGANIC SOL-GEL METHOD IN THE SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF ZINC OXIDE NANOPARTICLESKeanchuan Lee, Zulhilmi Akmal Saipolbahri, Beh Hoe Guan, Hassan SoleimaniNanosized Zinc Oxide (ZnO) was synthesized using sol-gel method. The nanomaterials with structure were annealed at different temperatures ranging from 500 to 700°C which were chosen based on the Thermogravimetric (TGA) Analysis. The structure and morphology were characterized by Powder X-Ray Diffraction (PXRD) and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), respectively. The PXRD shows the increasing tendency in crystallite size when the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 7 Apr 2014 · 7,296 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractENHANCING ASPHALT RHEOLOGICAL BEHAVIOR AND AGING SUSCEPTIBILITY USING BIO-CHAR AND NANO-CLAYRenaldo C. Walters, Elham H. Fini, Taher Abu-LebdehThe life expectancy of Asphalt Binder (AB) has been negatively impacted by the harsh bombardment of UV rays. UV rays cause asphalt to oxidize faster, which results in deterioration of asphalt rheological characteristics that can lead to pavement distresses. This study investigates the impact of bio-char and nano-clay of asphalt rheological properties. Two nano scale materials were used for this … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 24 Mar 2014 · 10,525 accessesView PDFCite
