Methyl Orange Dye

The Fe3O4 nanoparticles were synthesized from natural iron sand by dissolving it in HCl and precipitated by NaOH. Two solutions of iron rocks were treated, one without starch and one with starch, followed by NaOH. Both samples were characterized by X-ray Diffractometer (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) to record the crystallinity, morphology, and coating of starch on the Fe3O4 surface. The XRD pattern shows the presence of crystalline structures between bare and coated magnetic particles. SEM shows its morphological structure. EDX shows the elemental composition Fe present up to 75% in rocks. The removal of methyl orange dye is investigated and found 75% removal efficiency at the optimum condition at pH 6 at 120 minutes.

Abstract Over the years, functionalization of zeolite is gaining popularity among researchers to further modify the properties of the zeolite for wide applications. The procedure of functionalization is crucial to ensure that the framework and structure of the zeolite would not be destroyed by the functionalization process. In this work, zeolite AlPO-18 was synthesized via hydrothermal synthesis method and functionalized by (3-Aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APTES). The effect of the APTES functionalization on zeolite AlPO-18 was investigated in this work. Both unfunctionalized and silane-functionalized zeolite AlPO-18 were characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) for their properties. The morphology and the composition of the elements present in zeolite AlPO-18 and zeolite NH2-AlPO-18 were examined using Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) and Energy-Dispersive spectroscopy (EDX) respectively. The XRD pattern of NH2-AlPO-18 was similar to that of zeolite AlPO-18, however, the intensity of the peaks was lower compared to zeolite AlPO-18. Based on the FTIR spectra, the presence of N-H stretching and bending vibration band of aminosilane were observed in the NH2-AlPO-18 sample. According to FESEM images, the morphology of NH2-AlPO-18 was comparable to that of zeolite AlPO-18 even after functionalization, proving that functionalization of aminosilane on zeolite does not affect on the zeolite structure. Besides that, EDX proves the presence of 3.02 % of element N in the NH2-AlPO-18 sample which is absent in the zeolite AlPO-18 sample. All of the characterizations evinced the presence of aminosilane, APTES in the NH2-AlPO-18 sample.

Using Pr (NO3)3, butyl titanate, ethylene glycol and citric acid as main raw materials, praseodymium titanate (Pr2Ti2O7) was prepared by the sol-gel process. The samples were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), thermal gravity-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), diffuse-reflection spectra (DRS) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR). The effect of different calcination temperature and illumination time on the photocatalytic properties of Pr2Ti2O7 was investigated. It was found that the single phase Pr2Ti2O7 could be obtained through sol-gel process and calcination at 1000 °C. The Pr2Ti2O7 samples calcination at 1000 °C were uniform , and the resulting product had a particle size of 200 nm and an optical band gap of 3.26 eV. Under ultraviolet light, the degradation of methyl orange arrived to 80.11% after 180 min of photocatalytic reaction. The Pr2Ti2O7 samples showed good photocatalytic activity for decomposition of methyl orange.

Mineral Identification

Experimental clay mineral-organic molecule complexes long have been known and some of them have been extensively studied by X-ray diffraction methods. The organic molecules are adsorbed onto the surfaces of the clay minerals, or intercalated between the silicate layers. Natural organo-clays also are widely recognized but generally have not been well characterized. Widely used techniques for clay mineral identification involve treatment of the sample with H2 O2 or other oxidant to destroy any associated organics. This generally simplifies and intensifies the XRD pattern of the clay residue, but helps little with the characterization of the original organoclay. Adequate techniques for the direct observation of synthetic and naturally occurring organoclays are yet to be developed.

Thermal analysis is one of the most frequently used instrumental techniques in the pharmaceutical research, for the thermal characterization of different materials from solids to semi-solids, which are of pharmaceutical relevance. In this paper, simultaneous thermogravimetry/derivative thermogravimetry (TG/DTG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used for characterization of the thermal behaviour of candesartan cilexetil � active substance (C-AS) under dynamic nitrogen atmosphere and nonisothermal conditions, in comparison with pharmaceutical product containing the corresponding active substance. It was observed that the commercial samples showed a different thermal profile than the standard sample, caused by the presence of excipients in the pharmaceutical product and to possible interaction of these with the active substance. The Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) were used as complementary techniques adequately implement and assist in interpretation of the thermal results. The main conclusion of this comparative study was that the TG/DTG and DSC curves, together with the FT-IR spectra, respectively X-ray difractograms constitute believe data for the discrimination between the pure substance and pharmaceutical forms.

Zirconia-graphene composite (ZrO2-G) has been successfully synthesized via decomposition of ZrOCl2•6H2O in a water-isopropanol system with dispersed graphene oxide (GO) utilizing Na2S as a precursor could enable the occurrence of the deposition of Zr4+ and the deoxygenation of GO at the same time. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques were used to characterize the samples. It was found that graphene were fully coated with ZrO2, and the ZrO2 existing in tetragonal phase, which resulted in the formation of two-dimensional composite.

A series of Ni-Fe/SBA-15 catalysts was prepared and tested for the catalytic hydrogenation of levulinic acid to γ-valerolactone, adopting methanol as the only hydrogen donor, and investigating the synergism between Fe and Ni, both supported on SBA-15, towards this reaction. The characterization of the synthesized catalysts was carried out by XRD (X-ray powder diffraction), TEM (transmission electron microscopy), H2-TPD (hydrogen temperature-programmed desorption), XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy), and in situ FT-IR (Fourier transform–infrared spectroscopy) techniques. H2-TPD and XPS results have shown that electron transfer occurs from Fe to Ni, which is helpful both for the activation of the C=O bond and for the dissociative activation of H2 molecules, also in agreement with the results of the in situ FT-IR spectroscopy. The effect of temperature and reaction time on γ-valerolactone production was also investigated, identifying the best reaction conditions at 200 °C and 180 min, allowing for the complete conversion of levulinic acid and the complete selectivity to γ-valerolactone. Moreover, methanol was identified as an efficient hydrogen donor, if used in combination with the Ni-Fe/SBA-15 catalyst. The obtained results are promising, especially if compared with those obtained with the traditional and more expensive molecular hydrogen and noble-based catalysts.

Bovine bone is a considerable source for the production of hydroxyapatite. The recent study reported a novel method to extract hydroxyapatite from bovine bone without producing hazardous residue. The bovine bones were cut and boiled in the opened chamber followed by boiling in pressurized tank. The bones were then soaked into 95% ethanol. Calcination was then conducted in 800°C, 900°C and 1,000°C, for 2 hours. The result was then grinded and sieved. The powder then was characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) to measure the purity of hydroxyapatite. It is concluded that the hydroxyapatite derived from this process showed 100% purity, resulting 35.34 ± 0.39% w/w from the wet bone weight and 72.3% w/w from the dried weight. The present extraction method has been proven to yield high amount of pure hydroxyapatite as well as reducing the use of hazardous reagent.
