Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Silver/Polyvinilpirrolidone (Ag/PVP) Nanoparticles Using Gamma Irradiation TechniquesShawkat Salameh Gasaymeh, Shahidan Radiman, Lee Yook Heng et al.Problem statement: In this study, attempts had been made to synthesize silver (Ag)/Poly Vinylpyrolidone (PVP) nanoparticles by ionizing radiation and at the same time overcoming some of the disadvantages previously reported by other methods such as impurities, solvent toxicity, size and distribution control and difficulty in their preparation that limits their commercialization potential. Approach: The use of this alternative method … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 9,962 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGamma Irradiation Synthesis and Influence the Optical and Thermal Properties of Cadmium Sulfide (CdS)/Poly (Vinyl Pyrolidone) NanocompositesShawkat Salameh Gasaymeh, Shahidan Radiman, Lee Yook Heng, Elias SaionProblem statement: Gamma irradiation has been successfully used to prepare a spherical cadmium sulfide CdS/Poly Vinylpyrolidone (PVP) quantum dots nanoparticles with enhancement of their optical band gap energy and thermal properties at room temperature and under ambient pressure. Sodium thiosulfate was used as a sulfur source in an aqueous solution. The formation of lower band gap energy of CdS/PVP nanoparticles … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 8,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractControlling the Morphology of Nano-Hybrid MaterialsAbdullah I. Al JaafariProblem statement: It is known that layer double hydroxide is one of the nano ordered layered compounds and possesses plate-like morphology if carefully crystallized. Approach: In this study, Co-Sn LDH consisting of divalent and tetravalent cations was prepared with new morphology. XRD patterns of the prepared Co-Sn LDH showed that the interlayer spacing of the LDH was 0.78 nm and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,886 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractControlling Ammonia Volatilization by Mixing Urea with Humic Acid, Fulvic Acid, Triple Superphosphate and Muriate of PotashShamsuddin Rosliza, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: Inefficient use of inorganic fertilizer such as urea is caused by substantial losses of ammonia when urea is surface-applied. Ammonia losses can be controlled by adding acidic material such as TSP, HA or FA. In order to reduce ammonia loss and retain soil exchangeable ammonium and available nitrate as well as producing complete organic based fertilizer, this study … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 9,540 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of N and K Fertilizers on Nutrient Leaching and Groundwater Quality under Mature Oil Palm in Sabah during the Monsoon PeriodPetronella G. Ah Tung, Mohd Kamil Yusoff, Nik Muhamad Majid et al.Problem statement: The oil palms are mainly grown in the humid tropics with high rainfall. Soluble Nitrogen (N) and Potassium (K) fertilizers are commonly required by the oil palm plantations to maximize palm productivity due to the highly weathered soils with low fertility. Thus, leaching losses of N and K nutrients may be unavoidable and these nutrients may move further … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 10,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGroundwater in the Urban Environment: Management Needs and Planning StrategiesStefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaProblem statement: Over the past thirty years urban transformations, such as urbanization, suburbanization, dis-urbanization and re-urbanization processes, have modified the subsurface conditions of Torino (NW Italy). In order to contribute to the solution of the problems concerning groundwater the conceptual model for the groundwater flow system, the schematization of the aquifers boundaries and the estimation of basic hydrogeological parameters are … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,659 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Possibilities of the Application of Feed Additives from Macroalgae in Sustainable Mineral Animal FeedingIzabela Michalak, Katarzyna Chojnacka, Peter GlavičProblem statement: The idea of the application of biological material as mineral feed additives could constitute an innovative practice that would encourage environmental sustainability. The main idea of this study was to present the advantages of macroalgae enriched with microelements when compared to inorganic salts. Approach: In order to evaluate the potential participation of macroalgae in sustainable animal feeding, it … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,788 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation of WO3 Nanoparticles Using Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Bromide Supermolecular TemplateNilofar Asim, S. Radiman, M. Ambar bin YarmoProblem statement: WO3 is one of the most interested metal oxides because of its application as catalysts, sensors, electrochromic devices, ceramic, solar cell, pigments and so on. More investigation is needed to find the good and low cost method for preparation of WO3 nanoparticles with uniform morphology and narrow distribution using a surfactant mediated method. Approach: In this study, the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,699 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoating and Encapsulation of Nanoparticles using Supercritical AntisolventG. H. Chong, R. Yunus, N. Abdullah et al.Problem statement: Literature on the production of nanoparticles using supercritical fluids is substantial, but comparatively much less for nanoencapsulation. Approach: In this study, a modified Supercritical Anti Solvent (SAS) apparatus was fabricated for use in the production of nanoparticles using carbon dioxide as the supercritical fluid (SCF). SAS technique involves precipitation of solids from liquid solution under supercritical antisolvent-induced condition. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 8,417 accessesView PDFCite
