Arabic gum as green agent for ZnO nanoparticles synthesis: properties, mechanism and antibacterial activity
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
The size and morphology of ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) were controlled in the presence of the natural and green agent, Arabic gum. Lower amounts of Arabic gum showed a greater effect on the size and morphology as well as ...
Synthesis and characterization of poly(vinyl alcohol): Cloisite 20A nanocomposites
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Polymeric nanocomposite materials are very important materials because of their promised applications. However, many of their fundamental physical, mechanical, and chemical behaviors have not been quantified. Depending on ...
Reaction kinetics of carbon dioxide in aqueous blends of N-methyldiethanolamine and L-arginine using the stopped-flow technique
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Reduction of carbon dioxide emission from natural and industrial flue gases is paramount to help mitigate its effect on global warming. Efforts are continuously deployed worldwide to develop efficient technologies for CO ...
Drastic difference between hole and electron injection through the gradient shell of Cd: XSeyZn1- xS1- y quantum dots
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2017 , Article)
Ultrafast fluorescence spectroscopy was used to investigate the hole injection in CdxSeyZn1−xS1−y gradient core–shell quantum dot (CSQD) sensitized p-type NiO photocathodes. A series of CSQDs with a wide range of shell ...
Self-assembly of a surfactin nanolayer at solid-liquid and air-liquid interfaces
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Surfactin, a sustainable and environmentally friendly surface active agent, is used as a model to study the adsorption of biosurfactants at hydrophobic and hydrophilic solid–liquid interfaces as well as the air–liquid ...
Multilayer-MCTDH approach to the energy transfer dynamics in the LH2 antenna complex
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2017 , Article)
The multilayer multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree method is used to study the coupled exciton–vibrational dynamics in a high-dimensional nonameric model of the LH2 antenna complex of purple bacteria. The exciton–vibrational ...
Upgrading Calcium Bentonite to Sodium Bentonite Using Seawater and Soda Ash
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
In this paper, a new method is introduced to produce sodium bentonite by treating calcium bentonite using seawater to eliminate the use of freshwater and reduces the amount of soda ash required for the treatment, which ...
Photocatalytic Degradation of Pentachlorophenol Using ZnO Nanoparticles: Study of Intermediates and Toxicity
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2017 , Article)
The photocatalytic degradation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) was carried out using ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) in the presence of sunlight. The effect of different ZnO NPs sizes was synthesized by sol–gel method as well as loading ...
Direct Experimental Evidence for Photoinduced Strong-Coupling Polarons in Organolead Halide Perovskite Nanoparticles
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
Echoing the roaring success of their bulk counterparts, nano-objects built from organolead halide perovskites (OLHP) present bright prospects for surpassing the performances of their conventional organic and inorganic ...
Novel fluorinated surfactants for enhanced oil recovery in carbonate reservoirs
(
Wiley-Liss Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Novel surfactant‐polymer (SP) formulations containing fluorinated amphoteric surfactant (surfactant‐A) and fluorinated anionic surfactant (surfactant‐B) with partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) were evaluated for ...
