In this study, alkyl polyglucoside surfactant was synthesized and the critical micelle concentration (CMC) was determined. The synthesized product was quantified using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy (GC-MS). The CMC of the surfactant was evaluated using UV-visible Spectrophotometer. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) value was obtained from the sharp break in the plot of absorbance measurements versus surfactant concentration. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the surfactant was found to be 0.50 mol/dm3. This result showed a precise value for the CMC of non-ionic surfactant; since the value of the CMC obtained was lower than the stock solution of the surfactant prepared. The standard change in Gibbs free energy of the micelle (ΔGoCMC) showed that the process was feasible and spontaneous having the value of − 1.716 kJ/mol. This study recommends that akyl polyglucoside should be widely used for both domestic and industrial processes in view of the environmentally friendly nature, which are safe to use partially.

In this report, synthesis and characterization of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) from gold leaf by electrolysis in two different media (gel and paper) in presence of sodium chloride (NaCl), glucose (C6H12O6) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) at room temperature were investigated. Graphite was used as two electrodes, NaCl was used as an electrolyte, C6H12O6 was used as reducing agent and PVP was used as stabilizer to control the aggregation of the nanoparticles. UV-Visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to confirm the characteristics and morphologies of the synthesized AuNPs.

The synthesis and characterization of three monomeric aluminum porphycenes with anionic or σ-bonded axial ligands is reported. The investigated compounds are represented as ( EtioPc ) Al ( CH 3) and ( EtioPc ) AlX where EtioPc represents the dianion of etioporphycene and X = Cl − or OH −. Each synthesized complex was characterized by mass spectrometry. 1 H NMR, IR and UV-visible spectroscopies as well as by electrochemistry. Comparisons are made between the properties of complexes in the aluminum etioporphycene series and related chloro- or methyl σ-bonded Al ( III ) porphyrins containing octaethylporphyrin ( OEP ) or tetraphenylporphyrin ( TPP ) macrocycles. Comparisons are also made between the currently investigated compounds and a previously reported Al ( III ) μ-oxo dimer, [( EtioPc ) Al ]2 O . In addition, the crystal and molecular structure of ( EtioPc ) Al ( CH 3) was determined by X-ray diffraction. The molecular structure of this methyl-σ-bonded aluminum etioporphycene provides the first structural data for an aluminum porphycene compound. The aluminum(III) atom in ( EtioPc ) Al ( CH 3) is pentacoordinated and is located 0.54 Å from the plane of the four N -nitrogens.

Graphene was synthesized by microwave-hydrothermal chemical reduction of graphite oxide using hydrazine hydrate as the reducing agent. Graphene was characterized using X-ray diffraction, UV-visible spectrum, FT-IR spectrum and scanning electron microscopy. Results indicated that the as-prepared graphene was wrinkled and comprised fewer graphenes with a highly crystalline structure.

The fluorescence emission of p-dimethylaminochalcone (DMAC) has been monitored in β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTMAB) or sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) mixture. In the presence of a fixed amount of β-CD, a peak-shaped variation is observed in the curve of DMAC fluorescence intensity vs. surfactant concentration below critical micelle concentration (cmc). The peak height is dependent on β-CD concentration, and no peak is noted in the absence of β-CD. Such a peak-shaped variation in DMAC fluorescence emission is shown to be direct evidence for β-CD-induced aggregation of the surfactant below cmc in aqueous solution. The 1:1 surfactant/β-CD inclusion complex is the hydrophobic source inducing the aggregation.

We report the synthesis and characterization of a new family of pentavalent uranyl amide complexes, supported also by photoluminescence and theoretical investigations. These studies reveal for the first time that the UV-visible emission of uranyl(V) is an admixture of charge transfer transitions accompanied by vibronic coupling of the quartet excited state with uranyl oxo and amide vibrations, thereby offering new insights into the electronic structure of the reactive uranyl(V)
