Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Clean-Green Synthesis of Platinum Nanoparticles Utilizing a Pernicious Weed Lantana (Lantana Camara)Musthafa O. Mavukkandy, Sudip Chakraborty, Tasneem Abbasi, Shahid A. AbbasiA rapid, reproducible single step method is proposed for synthesizing platinum nanoparticles using an invasive weed lantana (Lantana camara, L). The method involves mixing of platinum (VI) solution, lantana leaf extract and ascorbic acid in appropriate concentrations and keeping the mixture at 95°C for 8 min. The collective action of ascorbic acid and leaf extract reduced the chloroplatinic acid to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 23 Feb 2016 · 10,447 accessesView PDFCite

The studies of performance characteristics of poly(amido amine) cured thermosetting … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Dec 2015 · 8,359 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGreen Synthesized Silver Nanoparticles Prepared from the Antimicrobial Crude Extracts of two Brown Seaweeds Against Plant PathogensAnnakodi Jothirethinam, Sivanantham Prathiba, Nagarajan Shanthi, Kulanthaiyesu ArunkumarThis study aimed for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) from the antimicrobial crude extracted in chloroform: methanol(1:1 v/v) from the two brown seaweeds Spatoglossum asperum and Hedophyllum sessile active against two pathogenic bacteria (Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri and X. oryzae pv. oryzae) and a fungus Ustilaginoidea virens cause diseases in plants under in vitro assay. Crude extracts exhibit high … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 5 Nov 2015 · 15,180 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Porous Ti-6Al-4V Mix with Palm Stearin Binder by Metal Injection Molding TechniqueMohamad Ikhwan Jamaludin, Nur Atikah Abu Kasim, Nor Hafiez Mohamad Nor, Muhammad Hussain IsmailGood potential of biocompatibility and excellent mechanical properties, porous Ti-6Al-4V has become a great interest for biomedical applications. In this study, porous Ti-6Al-4V was fabricated by Metal Injection Molding (MIM) using Palm Stearin (PS) and Polyethylene (PE) binder together with sodium chloride (NaCl) as a space holder. Rheological characterization was performed to evaluate the flowability of the feedstocks for injection … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2015 · 7,564 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 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
