In this study, the bio-nanocomposite composed of chitosan and nanoclay was prepared by solution intercalation method. The membrane was subsequently fabricated by dry/wet phase separation technique. The structure of bio-nanocomposite was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The membrane was applied to adsorb methylene blue (MB) for water treatment. The adsorption of MB was monitored through UV-Vis spectroscopy. The results showed that bionanocomposite membrane could adsorb MB up to 97.9 % in 150 min. The MB adsorption of bionanocomposite membrane was 234 times as high as the adsorption of the conventional chitosan films that is promising for environmental applications.

Triethynylborazine-polyhydromethylsiloxane copolymers (TEB-PHMSs) were prepared through hydrosilylation reaction between -C≡CH attached to boron and ≡Si-H. The structures of TEB-PHMSs were characterized by Fourier transform Infrared (FT-IR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Their cure behavior were examined by Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) and FT-IR, and then thermostability and ceramization of cured TEB-PHMS were investigated by Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), pyrolysis-GC-MS, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The results indicated that TEB-PHMSs could be cured and converted into an outstanding thermostable SiBCN ceramics.

Telah dilakukan sintesis fotokatalis N/TiO2 bermofologi nanotube dengan metode anodisasi  menggunakan ammonium nitrat (NH4NO3) sebagai sumber dopan pada berbagai variasi konsentrasi (0,5M , 1M, 2M), dilanjutkan dengan kalisinasi pada suhu 4500C selama 2 jam untuk mendapatkan fasa kristal anatase. Karakterisasi dilakukan menggunakan Scanning Electron Miscroscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infra Red (FT-IR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), dan DRS (Diffused Reflectant Spectrometry) UV-Vis. Pengujian Linear Sweep Voltametri dan Multi Pulse Anperiometri pada fotokatalis­ N/TiO2 telah berhasil diterapkan untuk degradasi senyawa Rhodamin B menggunakan sinar UV maupun sinar tampak. Aplikasi dari uji fotoelektrokatalisis menggunakan sinar tampak untuk N/TiO2-NT memberikan hasil eliminasi sebesar 47,86%, sedangkan bila menggunakan TiO2 nanotube tanpa dopan eleminasi hanya sebesar 25,49%. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa proses doping yang dilakukan telah berhasil menyisipkan nitrogen kedalam matrik TiO2 nanotube dan memperbaiki kinerja fotokatalisis nya di daerah sinar tampak.

Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) was synthesized at 520°C by the pyrolysis of cyanamide, dicyandiamide, and melamine. The samples were characterized by X–ray diffraction (XRD), UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectra, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and elemental analyzer. The photocatalytic activity of g-C3N4was evaluated by the photodegrading experiments of methylene blue (MB). The results indicated that g-C3N4. A photocatalytic mechanism presumed the MB photodegradation over the C3N4photocatalyst is attributed to photogenerated electron impelled multistep reduction of O2.

Effect of aeration treatment on Methylene Blue (MB) removal using TiO2-Zeolite has been investigated. The TiO2-Zeolite was prepared by mixing activated zeolite and TiO2 in absolute ethanol. This composite was characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The MB removal was monitored spectrophotometrically. The effect of contact time, composite mass, and aeration treatment on MB removal was observed. Characterization results showed that there was interaction between TiO2 and SiO/AlO of zeolite. The observation of aeration treatment using oxygen exhibited significant improving on MB removal.

In the present paper, a study on the synthesis of MIL-100(Fe) by hydrothermal process and its application in the catalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) was demonstrated. The obtained samples were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), scaning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The results showed that the synthesized MIL- 100(Fe) exhibited high crystallinity and surface area. Its catalytic activity was evaluated by measuring the rate of conversion of MB after oxidation reaction by H2O2. The results indicated that the MIL-100(Fe) showsed high catalytic activity for the oxidation reaction of MB and at pH = 10, MB was degraded almost completely after after 3 hours of presence of the catalyst.

Objective: In the present study, the isolated natural polymer from the stem of Manilkara hexandra and their physiochemical parameters were investigated. It is further involved in hypoglycemic studies. Methods: The gum exudates were screened for phytochemicals, physicochemically analyzed for solubility, pH, total ash, moisture content, acid insoluble ash, water soluble ash, sulfated ash, flow property, and it is characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared analysis (FT-IR), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) studies (13Carbon and 1Proton) and it was examined in vitro studies by hypoglycaemic activity. Results: The isolated gum extracted from the stem of Manilkara hexandra (Roxb.) Dubard ash values were found to be low. The gum is found to be hygroscopic in nature due to its high moisture content (0.9131±0.03). Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectra show relevant functional groups for gum, which is further confirmed by resonance spectral studies. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern shows that the gum is amorphous as well as crystalline in nature. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) image confirms that the gum particles have irregular size and shape. Sugar composition analysis by Thin Layer Chromatography indicated the presence of rhamnose, arabinose. The in vitro study of hypoglycemic activity shows the best report compared with the standard. The experimental evidence offers scope to use this natural polymer in the food and pharmaceutical industry. Conclusion: The isolated natural polymer shows good result in hypoglycemic studies compared with standard.
