This paper reports the preparation of methacrylic acid-grafted nylon (MAA—nylon) by treating nylon-6,6 fibres with methacrylic acid (MAA) and the use of this modified polyamide as an ion-exchanger for the immobilization of pollutant basic dyes. The grafting of MAA onto nylon-6,6 was demonstrated both by weight uptake and atomic force microscopy. The exchange capacity of MAA—nylon was evaluated by potentiometric titration of the acidic groups. Five MAA—nylon fibres with different degrees of grafting (20–80%) were tested for the adsorption of two basic dyes, viz. Basic Blue 3 and Basic Red 24. Such adsorption was monitored by visible spectroscopy. The adsorption capacity was found to depend on the degree of grafting and on the temperature. The experimental data were fitted using the Langmuir and Freundlich models. However, an improved fit could be obtained by using the Jossens model.

The dependences of various nanoindentation parameters, such as depth of penetration d, indentation diameter a, deformation zone radius R, and height h of hills piled up around indents, on applied load were investigated for the initial (unrecovered) stage of indentation of the (100) cleavage faces of MgO crystals by square pyramidal Si tips for loads up to 10 μN using atomic force microscopy. The experimental data are analyzed using theories of elastic and plastic deformation. The results revealed that (i) a, R, and h linearly increase with d; (ii) the development of indentation size and deformation zone and the formation of hills are two different processes; (iii) the load dependence of nanohardness shows the normal indentation size effect (i.e., the hardness increases with a decrease in load); and (iv) there is an absence of plastic deformation involving the formation of slip lines around the indentations. It is found that Johnson's cavity model of elastic–plastic boundary satisfactorily explains the experimental data. The formation of hills around indentations is also consistent with a new model (i.e., indentation crater model) based on the concept of piling up of material of indentation cavity as hills.

AbstractA method of local anodic oxidation has been used to obtain graphene-oxide regions on SiC. The change of the surface properties was confirmed by atomic-force microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Experimental data were obtained on the conductivity, potential, and topography of the oxidized regions. It was shown that the oxidation leads to a rise in the surface potential. A relationship was found between oxidation parameters, such as the scanning velocity and the probe voltage. The method of local anodic oxidation was used to obtain by lithography an ~20-nm-wide nanoribbon and an ~10-nm-wide nanoconstriction.

Existence of adatom gradient concentration on surface between step bunches was shown under sublimation, homoepitaxial growth and near equilibrium conditions on silicon (111) surface at above 900 ºС by means of in situ ultrahigh vacuum reflection electron microscopy and ex situ atomic force microscopy. It is experimentally confirmed that adatom have negative (at 1 100 ºС) and positive (at 1 300 ºС) effective charge. We found out the sign of adatom effective charge independent on the supersaturation volume on the surface. On the hasement of experimental data we evaluated the effective charge of adatom at 1 280ºС; this quantity is placed between 0,07 ± 0,01 and 0,17 ± 0,02 of electron unit

Aspects of the growth mechanism of silver triangular nanoplates by photochemical synthesis were addressed by detailed characterization using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, electron microscopies, and atomic force microscopy. The quantitative characterization of their size and thickness during the reaction showed that both increase with time as well as the aspect ratio. Samples irradiated by different wavelengths showed that the size of the nanoplates can be controlled by the incident wavelength and it is responsible for the increase of the aspect ratio, but the thickness seems to be determined by the conditions of the initial seeds. It was also found that irradiation with wavelength out of resonance with the surface plasmon of the initial seeds leads to a slower kinetics. The results suggested that rational exploration of the synthesis parameter such as the type of the initial seeds in combination with the wavelength irradiation may lead to a broader type of particles already obtained by this method.

AbstractThe roll of lubricants in the cold-drawn process is very important to obtain a good quality on the surface of aluminum and copper wires. The viscosity of a lubricant is closely related to its ability to reduce friction. When the viscosity of a lubricant is too low, the lubricated component will have inadequate protection and will therefore be subject to excessive wear. When the viscosity of the lubricant is too high, the lubricated component will expend additional energy to complete its task. In this work, the rheology behavior of traditional lubricants for the cold drawn of Al and Cu is determined from experimental data of viscosity Vs shear rate. To evaluate the efficiency of each lubricant, the roughness surface of each wire is measured by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). In this way a minimum of roughness in wires corresponds to the viscosity required for each cold-drawn process. It is known that different lubricants are used for the cold drawn of Al and Cu. In this work, a new lubricant developed with the aim to be used in both process is characterized by FTIR, rheometer analysis and AFM. Results have indicated that, this new lubricant with a low viscosity that promotes a lower energy process, also decreases the roughness of Al and Cu wires compared with conventional lubricants, i.e.it has an important influence in the quality of the wires surface. This means that this new lubricant could be used during the process of both metals without making important changes, which means low operations costs and flexibility for the manufacturing plant.

Abstract This paper presents the results of a study of meso-aryl-substituted porphyrin Langmuir monolayers by the method of compression isotherms. Experimental data were used to plot the dependences of the compression modulus (C−1) on the specific area. Monolayers at specific surface pressure were transferred to solid substrates and investigated. The monolayers were transferred to the surface of monocrystalline silicon at surface pressures of 8, 25, and 60 mN/m and examined them by atomic force microscopy (AFM) in a semi-contact mode. It was found that with an increase in the transfer pressure, the coarsening of molecular aggregates occurs. The smallest roughness is observed for a porphyrin film formed and transferred at a pressure of 8 mN/m.

This study aimed to biosynthesize and optimize the process of iron oxide nanoparticles producing by Penicilliumwaksmanii isolated from soil by employing mathematical methodology. The synthesized nanoparticles were formed with fairly well-defined dimensions with good monodispersity determined by SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy), AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy), DLS (Dynamic Light Scattering), UV-Visible spectroscopy, zeta potential, polydispersity index (PDI) and correlogram of nanoparticles. The effects of different factors such as pH, temperature and concentration of FeCl3 on the particle size were investigated by Box-Behnken experimental design. The R2 value was calculated to be 0.9992 indicating the accuracy and ability of the polynomial model.
