A kinetic study for the phosphorus release of a formulated CaHAP-Z fertilizer was done to observe its behavior when applied to clay loam soil. The study of release kinetics of CaHAP-Z was done along with CaHAP and the control fertilizer Solophos™ to determine whether the formulated fertilizer can be an alternative for the conventional fertilizer. Results showed that the formulated fertilizer CAHAP-Z contains 3.73% phosphorus with 513.10 nm particle (Dynamic Light Scattering) indicating that the formulated fertilizer can be classified as a nanofertilizer. The formulated CaHAP-Z fertilizer showed the slowest release kinetics compared to the controls. In addition, this study showed that the simple Elovich kinetic model is the general equation that best fits to describe the phosphorus release of fertilizers.

The kinetics of fungal peroxidase-catalyzed 2-hydroxyanthracene and 9-phenanthrol oxidation was investigated in presence of biosurfactant escin at pH 5.5 and 25 °C. The kinetic measurements were performed using the fluorimetric method and the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of escin was determined using the dynamic light scattering technique. Inactivation of peroxidase was observed in absence of biosurfactant escin. It was shown that escin, used in concentrations lower than CMC, decreases or completely stops the peroxidase inactivation and increases the conversion of 2-hydroxyanthracene as well as of 9-phenanthrol. The environmentally friendly method of peroxidase-catalyzed 2-hydroxyanthracene and 9-phenanthrol oxidation in presence of biosurfactant Escin has an advantage over traditional decontamination methods due to their less environmental impact.

ABSTRACTThe modelling of the aggregation kinetics of iron oxides has been succesful in predicting the increase in aggregate size as determined by dynamic light scattering measurements. The aggregates were found to exhibit fractal behaviour with fractal dimensions obtained from the scattering exponent in static light scattering studies dependent on the aggregation mechanism and ranging from 2.3 for rapid (diffusion limited) to 2.8 for slow (reaction limited) aggregation. Polydispersity and restructuring of aggregates were found not to affect the relationship between scattering exponent and aggregate fractal dimension. Excellent correspondence over a range of temperatures and ionic strengths has been obtained between results of sizing experiments using dynamic light scattering and sizes predicted using a modified Smoluchowski model incorporating fractal dimensions.

The long-term stability of two TiO2 hydrosols with concentration of TiO2 nanoparticles 1 and 12 mass.% was compared by turbidimetry and dynamic light scattering. The both sols were stabilized by HCl at pH=0.5. It was found that the mean hydrodynamic radius of particles and the turbidity of the sols increased slowly for six months of investigation and the kinetics of the “ageing” of the sols did not depend on TiO2 concentration. The obtained results will enable to determine mechanisms of the slow growth of nanoparticles and to modify nanoparticles structure.
