Background: The widespread use of the iron nanopowders connected with widely range of characteristics such as size, magnetic characteristics and high surface area and that is why in the literature are present many researches of its different applications. Objective: The work studies the influence of the conditions of the iron wire electrical explosion on the course of the explosion process and the dispersed composition of the resulting metal nanopoweder. Method: Experiments on electrical explosion of iron wires were carried out in the laboratory setup with the different initial conditions of electrical explosion of the iron wire. Results: The influence of the initial wire electrical explosion conditions on the explosion regime, the specific energy input into the conductor, and the specific energy released in the arc stage of discharge are definitely determined. The empirical equations for calculation of the initial wire electrical explosion conditions for providing the critical explosion in the argon medium at a pressure of 2·105 Pa were defined. It has been established that for synthesis of iron nanopowders with a narrow particle size distribution, it is preferable to use modes with a high level of the energy released in the arc stage of the discharge. Conclusion: It was found that disabling the arc stage of the discharge during EEW leads to the decreasing of the average surface particle size by 50%.

Nanocrystalline Hydroxyapatite

Nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (HA) powder was synthesized by a simple heating process involving simple chemical reaction. The characterization of the produced powder showed that the powder is nanosize with particle in the range of 30-70 mm in diameter and almost evenly spherical in shape. The powder also has a high surface area of 43.16 m2/g. Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) observation showed the crystallite and particle size become bigger with an increment of calcination temperature, indicating increasing of crystallinity.. FESEM observation showed the particle size become bigger with an increment of calcinations temperature. It is in agreement with the crystallite size analysis, obtained by Scherer’s formula and particle size analysis, measured by nanoSizer. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infra Red Spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses exhibited the same result, where HA phase was clearly observed at at various temperatures up to 600 ̊C. However, at temperature more than 600 ̊C, Tri calcium phosphate (TCP) phase appeared suppressing the HA phase, producing biphasic calcium phosphate.

Background: Nanoparticles made of silica are new materials that can be used in a wide range of drug delivery methods because they are biocompatible and biodegradable. Mesalamine, a classic water-soluble medication, remains loaded into the synthesized silica nanoparticle and is considered for sustained release proficiency. Precipitation approach using high surface area and pore volume tetraethyl orthosilicate yielded mesalamine-loaded silica nanoparticles. Methods: The drug-loaded nanoparticle was created and produced using two different techniques. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray powder diffraction, Brauer Emmett teller, scanning electron microscopy, particle size measurements, and dissolution investigations have all been used to analyse the substance in some way or another. Results: Because of the high surface area, well-known results like the complete silica nanoparticle created using method-2 remained mesoporous. The onset peak of the method-2 formulation's DSC was 182.27°c, and the offset peak was 192.14°c, consistent with the DSC results. The particle size range varies from 205-225nm. The results demonstrate that the uptake of the mesalamine by burst release it for 30 minutes initial, followed by sustained maintenance of dose even after 240 minutes. The results indicate that the loading process has an effect on the extent of loading. When silica nanoparticles were impregnated with mesalamine, the amount of the drug contained was significantly higher than when they were wetted. Conclusion: In addition, the XRD results show that both the pure mesalamine and the formulation did not show any polymorphic deviation.

The hydrophobic silica granular aerogels were synthesized via sol-gel synthesis followed by ambient pressure drying. The tetraethyloxylane (TEOS) was used as original precursor. The aerogels were analyzed using nitrogen adsorption, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and laser particle size analyzer. It was found that the aerogel was mesoporous material with high surface area. The aerogels were prepared in grain form by dipping into disperse solution in order to adsorption application. The average particle size of the aerogel was controlled by pH and disperse solution volume. The pH also affected gel time. The aerogels were used to absorb phenol from water. The saturated adsorption amount could reach up to 145 mg•g-1.

Degradation Rates

Hydrothermal reactions represent a simple and efficient method for the preparation of nanostructured TiO2 particles that could be of interest as photocatalysts or catalytic supports. Although the particle size is in the range of 2–5 µm, the nanostructures composing the particles ensure a large specific surface area with values above 100 m2/g. The effects of the different synthesis parameters on the morphology, photocatalytic activity, and stability of the prepared material were studied. The surface morphology of the prepared TiO2 powders was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). To further characterize the samples, the specific surface area for different morphologies was measured and the photocatalytic activity of the prepared powders was tested by degrading model pollutants under UV irradiation. The results show that the initial morphology had little effect on the photocatalytic properties. On the other hand, the final calcination temperature significantly increased the degradation rates, making it comparable to that of P25 TiO2 (particle size 20–30 nm).

The aim of the present work was to design and synthesize of mesoporous silica nanoparticles as topical hydrogel formulation for inclusion of poorly water soluble antifungal drug like Luliconazole as a drug delivery platform. The SBA-15 was prepared to evaluate its application as a carrier for Luliconazole drug delivery. Its molecular size was suitable for incorporation in to the mesoporous of the SBA-15 materials. The SBA-15 was characterized by FTIR, UV analysis, Particle size, Transmission electron microscopy. The Synthesized Mesoporous silica i.e. SBA-15 was of mean particle size of 15 nm and specific area 283.763m2/g respectively. The results revealed that prepared mesoporous silica have small particle size, high surface area, and enhanced drug dissolution rate. The results obtained showed that Luliconazole was loaded with great efficiency into the SBA-15 which leads to enhanced diffusion of drug. Luliconazole hydrogel formulations improved medication permeation across the skin appropriate polymer was used to produce the formulation (Carbopol 934p and HPMC). The physiochemical parameters of all the established luliconazole formulations were assessed, including gel appearance, pH, viscosity, spreadability, globule size, Zeta potential, and drug content. Many of the above parameters yielded positive outcomes but F1 and F3 batch results was were unacceptable ranges. It can be assumed that the formulation F1 and F3 resulted in improved spreadability, stability, and homogeneity, as well as a stronger drug release analysis.

The present study demonstrates a novel approach by which titanium foils coated with LiMn2O4nanocrystals can be processed into a high-surface-area electrode for rechargeable batteries. A detailed study has been performed to elucidate how surface morphology and redox reaction behaviors underlying these electrodes impact the cyclic and capacity behavior. These nanocrystals were synthesized by in situ sintering and exhibited a uniform size of ∼55 nm. A direct deposition technique based on electrophoresis is employed to coat LiMn2O4nanocrystals onto titanium substrates. From the analysis of the relevant electrochemical parameters, an intrinsic correlation between the cyclability and particle size has been deduced and explained in accordance with the Li intercalation/deintercalation process. Depending on the particle size incorporated on these electrodes, it is seen that in terms of capacitance fading, for nanoparticles cyclability is better than their micron-sized counterparts. It has been shown that electrodes based on such nanocrystalline thin film system can allow significant room for improvement in the cyclic performance at the electrode/electrolyte interface.
