Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan doping Kalium (K) dan Kalsium (Ca) pada support γ-Al2O3 dalam produksi biofuel yang berbentuk fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) melalui reaksi transesterifikasi minyak kelapa berbantuan ultrasonik. Reaksi dilakukan dalam tipe reaktor batch dengan perbandingan mol minyak kelapa:etanol = 1:9, dan variasi konsentrasi berat katalis untuk masing-masing katalis K/γ-Al2O­3 dan Ca/γ-Al2O3 terhadap minyak kelapa (0,5%; 1,0%; 1,5%; 2% dan 2,5%), waktu reaksi (30, 60, 90, 120 dan 150 detik), dan frekuensi ultrasonik (20 dan 40 KHz). Keberhasilan doping ditunjukkan pada hasil karakterisasi K/g-Al2O3 ­dan Ca/g-Al2O3 menggunakan X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) yang menghasilkan puncak 2θ karakteristik K (29,70° dan 32,65°) dan Ca (25,35°, 26,77°, dan 27,17°) pada support g-Al2O3 (37,66°, 45,82° dan 67,22°). Karakterisasi menggunakan Surface Area Analyzer (SAA) menunjukkan bahwa katalis K/g-Al2O3 memiliki luas permukaan yang lebih kecil (34,03 m2/g) dibanding Ca/g-Al2O3 (83,77 m2/g), namun diameter pori yang lebih besar (66,12 Å) dibanding Ca/g-Al2O3 (35,22 Å). Katalis K/g-Al2O3 menghasilkan yield FAME yang lebih besar (93,19%) dibanding Ca/γ-Al2O3 (29,76%) pada konsentrasi katalis 2,5%, waktu reaksi 150 detik dan frekuensi ultrasonik 40 kHz. Kualitas FAME terkatalisis K/g-Al2O3 yang dihasilkan memenuhi empat parameter uji: densitas, viskositas kinematic, titik nyala, dan titik tuang sesuai dengan standar SNI 04-7182-2006.

AbstractWe present a comparative study in terms of structural properties deduced from X - ray diffraction diagrams between YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO) thin films fabricated on SrTiO3 (STO) single crystal substrates and bicrystallines substrates with a symmetrical tilt angle of 24 degrees. Periodic Lattice Distortions (PLD) have been observed around different Bragg peaks in YBCO thin films deposited on STO bicrystals while only diffraction peaks have been measured in the diagrams corresponding to the YBCO thin films deposited on STO single crystal substrates. Only in regions situated a 3.5 mm at both sides of the grain boundary the PDL have been investigated. Scans along different (h, k, l) directions allow us to conclude that the qPLD vector associated to the distortion is along the (h,-k,0) direction. However, we found that the amplitude of the components of the qPLD vector depend on the Bragg peak chosen. We believe such a result indicates that we have not a PDL with a simple qPLD vector. In this line, other (h, k, l) directions must be investigated to deduce the exact origin of the qPLD vector. Nevertheless, independently on the qPLD vector associated to the PLD, we believe that such a distortion in the lattice is a consequence of the stress field induced by the grain boundary in the YBCO thin film deposited on the bricrystal.

Zn-rich and P-rich amorphous Zn3P2 thin films were prepared by co-evaporation of the excess element during the normal Zn3P2 deposition. X-ray diffraction techniques were used to investigate the structural properties and the crystallization process. Agglomeration of the excess element within the as-made amorphous Zn3P2 thin film accounted for the structural properties observed after annealing the sample. Electrical measurements showed that excess Zn reduces the conductivity activation energy and increases the conductivity, while excess P up to 15 at.% does not alter the electrical properties significantly.

Abstract X-ray structural analyses of two α,γ-diketo esters and one α,γ-diketo acid, which are amino acid antagonists, have shown them all to be present in the solid state in the α,β-unsaturated γ-keto enolic form. The structures of the esters β-acetyl-pyruvic acid methyl ester (1) and 2-oxo-cyclopentyl-glyoxylic acid ethyl ester (3) are stabilized by intra-molecular O···H(-O) hydrogen bonds involving the enol proton. In the case of camphor oxalic acid (4) an intramolecular O···H-O hydrogen bond between the γ-keto oxygen and the acid proton is observed. The bond lengths and angles in 1 indicate a significant contribution from the mesomeric β,γ-unsaturated enol form. For comparison purposes the structure of the γ-enol methyl ether of 1, (4-methoxy-2-oxo-pentene)carboxylic acid methyl ester (2) has also been determined. The X-ray structures of the cyclization products of respectively an α,γ-diketo acid and an α,γ-diketo ester are reported.

From the hard and anti-corrosions coatings, we found the chromium carbides, these components were discovered by large studies; like thin films since years ago. They were pointed a good quality for the protection of steel, because of their thermal and mechanical properties for this reason, it was used in many fields for protection. Plus: their hardness and their important function in mechanical coatings. The aim of this work joins a study of the effect of the thermal treatment on mechanical and structural properties of the Cr/steel system. Thin films were deposited by cathodic magnetron sputtering on the steel substrates of 100C6, contain 1% wt of carbon. Samples were annealing in vacuum temperature interval between 700 to 1000 °C since 45 min, it forms the chromium carbides. Then pieces are characterising by X-ray diffraction, X-ray microanalysis and scanning electron microscopy. Mechanical properties are analysing by Vickers test. The X-ray diffraction analyse point the formation of the Cr7C3, Cr23C6 carbides at 900°C; they transformed to ternary carbides in a highest temperature, but the Cr3C2 doesn’t appear. The X-ray microanalysis shows the diffusion mechanism between the chromium film and the steel sample; from the variation of: Cr, Fe, C, O elements concentration with the change of annealing temperature. The variation of annealing temperature shows a clean improvement in mechanical and structural properties, like the adhesion and the micro-hardness.
