The purpose of this work was to study and optimize the complexation reaction of Mn2+ ions with flavonoid dihydroquercetin (DHQ) in aqueous solutions. It was found that the interaction of DHQ (0.015–0.030 M) with manganese (II) salts at molar ratios of DHQ : Mn2+ from 1 : 1 to 1 : 3 at pH 6.9–7.9 leads to the formation of a complex compound (CC) with a stoichiometric ratio of metal : flavonoid ligand (Met : L) 1 : 1. The conditions for the complexation of Mn2+ ions with dihydroquercetin at laboratory conditions optimized for the yield of the product, are proposed. The maximum yield of the complex (95%) was achieved at the interaction of DHQ with Mn(CH3COO)2∙4H2O under conditions: pH 7.7, 70 °C, the reaction time was 15 min, the molar ratio of the initial reagents DHQ: Mn2+ was 1 : 1.5, the initial concentrations were 0.020 M DHQ and 0.030 M Mn2+. The most probable composition of the complex with the determination of the amount of bound water [MnL(OH)(H2O)2] and the structure of the complex were established using the data of thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), elemental analysis and X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF), confirmed by the data of total reflection X-ray fluorescence analysis (TXRF), and EPR spectroscopy data.

A set of novel photocatalysts, i.e., copper-zirconia imidazolate (CuZrIm) frameworks, were synthesized using different zirconia molar ratios (i.e., 0.5, 1, and 1.5 mmol). The photoreduction process of CO2 to methanol in a continuous-flow stirred photoreactor at pressure and temperature of 1 atm and 25 °C, respectively, was studied. The physicochemical properties of the synthesized catalysts were studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. The highest methanol activity of 818.59 µmol/L.g was recorded when the CuZrIm1 catalyst with Cu/Zr/Im/NH4OH molar ratio of 2:1:4:2 (mmol/mmol/mmol/M) was employed. The enhanced yield is attributed to the presence of Cu2+ oxidation state and the uniformly dispersed active metals. The response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the reaction parameters. The predicted results agreed well with the experimental ones with the correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.99. The optimization results showed that the highest methanol activity of 1054 µmol/L.g was recorded when the optimum parameters were employed, i.e., stirring rate (540 rpm), intensity of light (275 W/m2) and photocatalyst loading (1.3 g/L). The redox potential value for the CuZrIm1 shows that the reduction potential is −1.70 V and the oxidation potential is +1.28 V for the photoreduction of CO2 to methanol. The current work has established the potential utilization of the imidazolate framework as catalyst support for the photoreduction of CO2 to methanol.

Fe2O3/C nanocomposites were successfully synthesized using microwave assisted calcination method. Ferric (III) chloride hexahydrate (FeCl36H2O), sodium hydroxide (NaOH), and dextrose monohydrate (C6H12O6H2O) were used as precursors. A microwave oven of 2.445 GHz with a power of 600 W for 20 minutes was employed during the syntheses. Calcination was performed in a simple furnace at 350 °C for 30 min. The molar ratio of C:Fe is the only process parameter. From Scanning Electron Microscope images, the average particle size were 199 nm and 74 nm for the samples with molar ratio of C:Fe of 1:2 and 1:1, respectively. X-ray diffractometer spectra showed that the obtained samples have γ-Fe2O3 (maghemite) crystal structure. Using the Scherrer method, the crystallite size were 61.7, 58.8, 52.5, and 48.8 nm for the samples with the molar ratios of C:Fe of 1:3, 1:2, 1:1, and 2:1, respectively. It means that the crystallite size of the nanocomposite decreases with the increase of the molar ratio of carbon to iron (C:Fe). The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller characterization showed that the surface area as high as 255.6 m2/g is achieved by of the Fe2O3/C nanocomposite with the molar ratio of C:Fe of 1:1.

AbstractThe interesting properties of stimuli-responsive polymers lead to a wide range of possibilities in design and engineering of functional material for the biomedical application. A systematic approach focused on the evaluation of the physical properties of multiresponse (pH and temperature) PNIPAM was reported in this work. The effect of three different molar ratios of poly(n-isopropylacrylamide): chitosan (1:49, 1:99 and 1:198) were evaluated and labeled correspondingly as PC1F, PC2F, and PC3F. An increase in the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of sample PC1F (34°C) was observed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The presence of low molecular weight chitosan (LMWC) full-interpenetrating polymer (Full-IPN) segments in poly(n-isopropylacrylamide) was confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The hydrogel’s water capture was analyzed by two models of swelling, the power law model and a model that considers the relaxation of polymeric chains of the hydrogel, finding good correlations with experimental data in both cases. Sample PC3F resulted with higher swellability, increasing the weight of the hydrogel around seven times. Hydrogel pH-sensibility was confirmed placing the samples at different pH environments, with an apparent increase in swellability for acidic conditions, confirming the highest swellability for sample PC3F, due to hydrogen bonds boosted by chitosan high molar ratio. Based on these results, the hydrogel obtained has potential as a thermo-pH triggered hydrogel in drug delivery applications.

In this article, the modification effects on Al–Mg2Si before and after heat treatment were investigated with Ca, Sb, and (Ca + Sb). In comparison with single Ca or Sb, the samples with composition modifiers (Ca + Sb) had the optimal microstructure. The sample with a molar ratio for Ca-to-Sb of 1:1 obtained relatively higher properties, for which the Brinell hardness values before and after heat treatment were remarkably increased by 31.74% and 28.93% in comparison with bare alloy. According to differential scanning calorimetry analysis (DSC), it was found that the nucleation behavior of the primary Mg2Si phase could be significantly improved by using chemical modifiers. Some white particles were found to be embedded in the center of Mg2Si phases, which were deduced to be Ca5Sb3 through X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field-emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) analyses. Furthermore, Ca5Sb3 articles possess a rather low mismatch degree with Mg2Si particles based on Phase Transformation Crystallography Lab software (PTCLab) calculation, meaning that the efficient nucleation capability of Ca5Sb3 for Mg2Si particles could be estimated.

Two cesium phosphotungstate-derived solid acid catalysts (Cs2.5H0.5PW12 and Cs0.5H2.5PW12) were prepared. The resulting catalysts were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), N2 adsorption and desorption isotherm and temperature programmed desorption of ammonia(NH3-TPD). The Cs2.5H0.5PW12 and Cs0.5H2.5PW12 were respectively used to catalyze the tranesterification of castor oil and methanol for the synthesis of biodiesel with the assistance of microwave. Results shown microwave radiation can greatly enhance the transesterification process when compared with conventional heating method. Cs2.5H0.5PW12 showed better catalyst performance than Cs0.5H2.5PW12. A maximum yield of 90% was obtained from the using of 30:1 molar ratio of methanol to castor oil and 15 wt % mass ratio of catalyst to castor oil at 343 K under microwave radiation after 4h.

In this study, ZnS thin films were prepared on glass substrates by chemical bath deposition at various Zn/S molar ratios from 1/50 to 1/150. The effects of Zn/S molar ratio in precursor on the characteristics of ZnS films were demonstrated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, optical transmittance, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry. It was found that more voids were formed in the ZnS film prepared using the precursor with Zn/S molar ratio of 1/50, and the other ZnS films showed the denser structure as the molar ratio was decreased from 1/75 to 1/150. From the analyses of chemical bonding states, the ZnS phase was indeed formed in these films. Moreover, the ZnO and Zn(OH)2also appeared due to the water absorption on film surface during deposition. This would be helpful to the junction in cell device. With changing the Zn/S molar ratio from 1/75 to 1/150, the ZnS films demonstrate high transmittance of 75–88% in the visible region, indicating the films are potentially useful in photovoltaic applications.

AbstractA rapid, safe and simple technique for the production of high purity strontium oxide powders via a chemical combustion process is reported. The combustion reactions were performed to optimize the fuel to oxidizer ratios in the reaction mixtures required to obtain pure SrO powders by varying the molar ratio of chemical precursors and the temperature. The synthesized powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, and N2-physisorption measurements. The results indicate that crystalline SrO was obtained using a 1:1 strontium nitrate: urea molar ratio at 1000 °C after 5 minutes. In addition, high-purity, homogeneous and crystalline SrO powders were easily produced in a short time via a chemical combustion process.
