Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComposition Dependent Structural and Thermal Properties of SM2O3 Doped Zinc Fluoroborate GlassesSudha D. Kamath, Akshatha Wagh, M.P. AjithkumarGlasses based on Sm3+ doped zinc fluoroborate have been synthesized and characterized. Formation of glass has been investigated in the 30 ZnF2-20 TeO2-(50-x) B2O3-x Sm2O3 matrix. Fast quenching is required to prevent melt crystallization and adequate heat treatment to diminish thermal stress, which results in an efficient amorphous material. The Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 15 Jul 2014 · 7,244 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 abstractGROWTH OF YB3+ DOPED LiNBO3 CRYSTALS USING LASER HEATED PEDESTAL GROWTH METHODBariza Boudour, Youcef Boumaiza, Amar BoudourThe growth of LN single crystals free from defects greatly doped with rare earth elements (RE3+) and having a high optical quality is still an unresolved problem. Always, crystals of the niobate lithium contain a deficiency in lithium causing the appearance of intrinsic defects and thus a doping is required for the homogeneity. Our work was aimed to study the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 17 Feb 2014 · 6,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeciation and Availability of Cr, Ni and Co IN Serpentine Soils of Ranau, SabahMahsa Tashakor, Wan Zuhairi Wan Yaacob, Hamzah MohamadProblem statement: Serpentine soils are known as a geogenic source of heavy metal pollution because they are anomalously rich in chromium, nickel and cobalt. Approach: However, only that portion of these metals which is available in the ecosystem and incorporates in the bio-transformation processes, is dangerous for the environment. Availability of Cr, Ni and Co depends on their speciation into … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 20 Mar 2013 · 13,551 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSafety and Efficacy of an Ayurvedic Formulation Cystone in Management of Ureteric Calculi: A Prospective Randomized Placebo Controlled StudyN.K. Mohanty, R.L. Nayak, Pralhad S. PatkiProblem statement: Medical management of urolithiasis is still a challenge for modern medical practice. In the present study, Cystone tablet, an Ayurvedic formulation claimed to be useful in urolithiasis was evaluated for its safety and efficacy in reduction or expulsion of ureteric calculi and to assess the role of Cystone in relieving the clinical symptoms. Approach: This was a prospective … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 12,360 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

KalaivaniProblem statement: This study presented bone like apatite formation on yttria stabilized zirconia in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF) through hydroxylation technique. Approach: Sol gel route was used to prepare yttria stabilized zirconia. Then it was hydroxylated with 5M H3PO4 for formation of Zr-OH group. Moreover, the growth rate of calcium and phosphate on zirconia substrate was examined using simulated body … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNatural Activities of 238U, 232Th and 40K in Manganese OreH. A. Abel-GhanyProblem statement: Manganese ore is widely used in much industries. Such as ore contain natural radioactive nuclides at various concentrations. If this ore contain high concentrations of natural radioactive nuclides, workers handling them might be exposed to significant levels of radiation. Therefore it is important to determine the radioactive nuclides in this ore. Approach: The natural radionuclides (238U, 232Th and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,024 accessesView PDFCite
