An investigation on modification of natural zeolite with ZnO for the degradation of tartrazine. In this study, ZnO as a semiconductor is modified into a natural zeolite as support to form ZnO/zeolite that can increase the efficiency degradation of tartrazine. Further, the formed catalyst was added to tartrazine by determining the variation in ozonolysis time, the amount of addition of the catalyst, and the addition of a catalyst time. The results of degradation were determined by UV-Vis spectrophotometer at 424 nm. The result showed that the percentage of degradation obtained on each catalyst in the degradation. The resulted percent degradation of 20 ml of tartrazine at concentration of 15 mg/L using 20 mg ZnO/zeolite was 56.80%, while using 0.77 mg ZnO was 42.25%, and with the addition of 19.23 mg of Zeolite was 31.18%, all of that condition was proceeded by 40 minutes of ozonolysis. Thus, the result indicates that the ZnO/zeolite catalyst can increase percentages of tartrazine degradation by ozonolysis. It is known that the catalyst ZnO/zeolite is very effective in increasing the degradation of tartrazine. Analysis of tartrazine compounds using fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) after degradation changes in wavenumber indicates that there is a breaking of the bonds of tartrazine compounds. Characterization of ZnO/zeolite catalyst using FTIR, X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM), in each spectrum there was no shift, indicating that there is no change in ZnO/zeolite structure

The present study aims to investigate the physicochemical properties of the methyl cellulose. The information of this investigate has been used to reference in preparing biodegradable film. It was observed that the Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) spectroscopy show the hydrogen bond’s formation and the Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) show the chemical and level of the composition element, which Copper (Cu) has the highest accumulate. Another that, the XRD spectra which investigated by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) show the methyl cellulose had lowered crystalline. Another that, the Thermo-Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) was used to investigate the effect of heating and influence of thermal.

In this work the synthesis and characterization of polyurethane (PU)-chitosan(CH) porous prepared by thermal induced phase separation (TIPS) is described, the obtained products were characterized by thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), evidence of the interaction between both polymers was acquired from infrared spectroscopy. The morphology of the scaffolds was studied by scanning electron microscopy also the mechanical properties were acquired. The results showed that the TIPS technique is appropriate for the production of PU-CH porous materials.

Abstract: The polymerization process with a simple step has become the centre of attention of several researchers. Various polymers have been developed, although in general, they use polymerization with a post-modification method. A quaternary ammonium monolith organic polymer has been prepared using a simple single thermal method in this research. 2-(Methacryloyloxy)-N,N,N-trimethylethanaminium chloride was as the monomer, and ethylene dimethacrylate was as crosslinker. The polymerization proceeded in fused-silica capillary (100 mm, 0.32 mm i.d. x 0.45 mm o.d.) using a one-pot approach method. To achieve the perfect macropores, isopropyl alcohol, PEG 400, and ethanol were used as porogen. Characterization of the surface morphology was carried out using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and the existence of an amine group was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The distribution size of pores in the polymer was in the range of 1.29 to 3.33 µm.Abstrak: Polimerisasi dengan proses yang sederhana dan simpel menjadi pusat perhatian beberapa peneliti. Berbagai macam polimer telah dikembangkan, akan tetapi pada umumnya menggunakan polimerisasi dengan metode post-modification. Pada penelitian ini, polimer organik yang mengandung amonium kuartener dalam bentuk monolit dengan polimerisasi yang menggunakan suhu tunggal dan sederhana telah dilakukan. 2-(Methacryloyloxy)-N,N,N-trimethylethanaminium chloride digunakan sebagai monomer dan ethylene dimethacrylate sebagai crosslinker. Polimerisasi dilakukan dengan metode one-pot aaproach di dalam kapiler silika (100 mm, 0,32 mm i.d. x 0,45 mm o.d.). Untuk mendapatkan makropori yang sempurna, isopropil alkohol, PEG 400 dan etanol digunakan sebagai porogen. Karakterisasi morfologi permukaan dilakukan dengan menggunakan Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), dan Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) untuk mengidentifikasi gugus fungsi gugus amina yang terdapat pada polimer. Ukuran distribusi pori pada polimer berkisar antara 1,29 sampai 3,33 µm.

A new kind of high performance benzoxazine (BOZ) was synthesized from p-aminophenol functionalized chloropropyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (AP-POSS), aniline and paraformaldehyde through a solvent-free process. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was employed to characterize the structure of the new BOZ resin contained POSS (POSS-BOZ). The differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) was chosen to research the curing behavior of the new resin, and the thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) was chosen to research the thermal properties. The results show that the POSS-BOZ is successfully synthesized, and the POSS-BOZ also exhibits better thermal performance in comparison with bisphenol-A benzoxazine (bA-BOZ).
