The method of preparation of Cu-Ni-Al prealloyed powders were studied in this paper. Cu, Ni, Al were smelted at 1500°C and N2 was chosen as atomizing media to produce the Cu-Ni-Al prealloyed powders. The morphology and particle size distribution of Cu-Ni-Al prealloyed powders were analysis with Scanning electron microscopy; the phase composition of Cu-Ni-Al prealloyed powders were analysis XRD. The results show that the morphology of Cu-Ni-Al prealloyed powders are almost nearly spherical, particle size distribution is very uniform and the average particle size is 39μm. The powders are composed of Cu and AlNi phase.

Pengobatan tradisional masih diminati. Salah satu tumbuhannya adalah daun ekor naga (Rhaphidophora pinnata (L.f.) Schott) yang digunakan sebagai obat antikanker dan antibakteri. Penggunaan nanoteknologi dalam sistem penghantaran obat terus diteliti dan dikembangkan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membuat dan mengetahui sifat-sifat nanopartikel ekstrak etanol daun ekor naga (Rhaphidophora pinnata (L.f.) Schott) menggunakan metode gelasi ionik. Ekstrak daun ekor naga dibuat dengan metode maserasi menggunakan pelarut etanol 96%. Nanopartikel dibuat dengan metode gelasi ionik, yaitu menggunakan larutan natrium tripolipospat 0,1% dan kitosan 0,2%, Nanopartikel kemudian dikarakterisasi menggunakan Particle Size Analyzer untuk mengetahui distribusi ukuran partikel dan Scanning Electron Microscopy untuk mengetahui bentuk permukaan partikel. Nanopartikel yang dihasilkan berupa serbuk berwarna coklat muda dengan distribusi ukuran partikel 234,49-1479,50 nm pada perbandingan kitosan 0,2% dan natrium tripolipospat 0,1% (5:1).

This research aimed to prepare and evaluate the characterization of nanoparticle of Ekor Naga Leaves Ethanol Extract (Rhaphidophora pinnata (L.f.) Schott) by Ionic Gelation Method. The Ekor naga leaves extract was prepared by maceration with ethanol 96%. Nanoparticle was prepared by ionic gelation method, using sodium trypholiphosphat 0.1% and chitosan 0.2%, then it was characterized using Particle Size Analyzer to determine particle size distribution and Scanning Electron Microscopy to determine surface structure  particle. The nanoparticle was light brown with particle size distribution of  234.49-1479.50 nm in ratio of chitosan 0.2% and sodium trypholiphosphat 0.1% was 5:1. The surface structure of nanoparticle of ekor naga leaves extract was not smooth and form loose aggregates. The ethanol extract of ekor naga leaves can be prepared into nanoparticle with sodium trypholiphosphat 0.1% and chitosan 0.2% by Ionic Gelation Method

In this work, different commercial Co-Cr-Mo powders were used in selective laser sintering. Commercial powders with particle size distribution between 5 and 50μm were sintered by laser sintering, and characterized. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, indicating Co as the only crystalline phase. Relative density was measured by Archimedes method showing values between 90 and 96% of TD, depending on the powder used. Scanning electron microscopy performed on the cross section of the sintered samples, indicates that the microstructural features are similar, but the surface finish of the samples differ significantly due to the morphology and size distribution of the starting powders used.

AbstractThe present study investigates the effect of the solidification strategy for AA 6063 alloy on the surface appearance of anodized extrusions. The microstructure of the samples was analyzed using both light optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Results show that if heavy segregation occurs from rapid solidification, coarse Mg2Si particles form, thus reducing the potential for precipitation strengthening by the finer β-Mg2Si developed in the solid state. Differentially-strained regions formed during hot extrusion induce differences in particle size for magnesium silicide (Mg2Si) precipitates. Anodizing generates surface roughness due to Mg2Si particle dissolution and AlFeSi decohesion, which is related to both particle size and deformation. During anodizing, an oxide layer forms on the surface of the extruded products, which can lead to streak formation, usually a subject of rejection due to unacceptable heterogeneous reflectivity.

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk membuat dan mengetahui karakteristik nanopartikel dari ekstrak etanol temu kunci (Boesenbergia pandurata) dan rasio optimal variasi konsentrasi kitosan dan NaTPP dalam pembuatan nanopartikel temu kunci.            Pembuatan ekstrak temu kunci (Boesenbergia pandurata) menggunakan metode maserasi menggunakan etanol teknis 96% dilanjutkan evaporasi hingga terbentuk ekstrak kental temu kunci. Koloid nanopartikel dibuat dengan mencampurkan ekstrak temu kunci dalam etanol p.a, akuades, larutan kitosan dalam asam asetat glasial, dan larutan NaTPP. Ada 9 variasi komposisi antara larutan kitosan dan  NaTPP yakni rasio (5:1); (10:1); (15:1); (20:1); (3,33:1); (8:1); (9:1); (11:1); dan (12:1). Padatan dalam koloid nanopartikel dipisahkan dengan cara sentrifugasi. Endapan yang didapatkan disimpan dalam freezer. Koloid nanopartikel yang terbentuk dikarakterisasi menggunakan Particle Size Analyzer (PSA) dan Zeta Sizeruntuk mengetahui ukuran partikel dan nilai zeta potensial. Padatan yang didapatkan dari proses sentrifugasi selanjutnya dikarakterisasi menggunakan Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) untuk mengetahui kondisi morfologi padatan tersebut. Karakterisasi dengan KLT pada padatan yang didapatkan bertujuan untuk mengetahui kesamaan kandungan senyawa antara ekstrak etanol temu kunci dan ekstrak etanol temu kunci dalam sediaan berukuran nano.            Koloid nanopartikel yang telah dibuat berwarna kuning dan setelah di sentrifugasi terbentuk padatan berwarna kuning kecokelatan. Karakterisasi menggunakan PSA menunjukkan ukuran partikel pada rentang 389-877 nm sebanyak 98,1% pada rasio konsentrasi kitosan dan NaTPP = (8:1). Nilai rerata zeta potensial adalah 41,87 mV. Hasil foto SEM menunjukkan morfologi partikel yang memiliki permukaan yang tidak rata. Rf keenam sampel menunjukkan hasil bahwa senyawa yang terkandung dalam ekstrak etanol temu kunci maupun ekstrak etanol temu kunci dalam sediaan nanopartikel adalah sama. Kata Kunci : kitosan, NaTPP, ekstrak etanol temu kunci, KLT, SEM, PSA, zeta sizer

In this work, CaCO3 nanoparticles have been synthesized via heat-treatment of a new precursor. Effect of calcinations temperature on particle size has been investigated. The products were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). nanoCaCO3 was modified using chloroform as solvent and fatty acid as modifier atroom temperature. The advantage of this modification is that it can be proceed at room temperature and it can reduce energy consumption.
