First Cryo-Scanning Electron Microscopy Images and X-Ray Microanalyses of Mucoromycotinian Fine Root Endophytes in Vascular Plants

The nanocomposites have an extensive use in the current process of membrane preparation, taking into account their unique features as membranes. Thus, the study of nanocomposite processing to obtain membranes is highly important. In this work, Brazilian clay was used (Brasgel PA) for the preparation of polyamide/clay nanocomposite. The nanocomposites were produced in a high rotation homogenizer and in a twin screw extruder. From the nanocomposites and pure polymers processed in the two equipments, membranes were prepared by the immersion-precipitation method, using formic acid as solvent. By X-ray diffraction (XRD), the formation of exfoliated and/or partially exfoliated structures with changes in the crystalline phases of the polyamide was observed. From scanning electron microscopy images, it was observed that the processing clearly influenced the membrane morphology.

A YNi2B2C single crystal containing traces of foreign phases was inspected by means of neutron and X-ray diffraction as well as scanning electron microscopy and X-ray spectroscopy methods. The diffraction patterns obtained from the experiments look similar to those expected for a superstructure. Nevertheless, they can be interpreted as crystallographically oriented precipitations of YB2C2and Ni2B within the YNi2B2C crystal, formed during the cooling process. The orientation relation between the lattices was obtained from experimental neutron and X-ray data. Structure refinements of the collected X-ray data were performed by separation of the intensity data of the individual phases. Scanning electron microscopy images of the inclusions found on a polished cross section of the crystal are presented; their chemical composition was determined using wavelength-dispersive X-ray analysis.

Semimetal Bi and Sb thin films with novel hierarchical structures were synthesized on zinc substrate via a hydrothermal method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the formation of pure semimetals Bi and Sb. Scanning electron microscopy images showed that Bi films constructed with microtube arrays and hierarchical microspheres can be obtained selectively by altering the concentration of Bi3+ions. The synthesized Sb films were constructed with bowl-shaped particles. The growth process of these semimetal architectures was briefly discussed.

Phase formation of Magnesium diboride MgxB2 (x=0.8, 1.0, 1.2) by in situ reaction of Magnesium (Mg) and Boron (B) at different annealing temperature by varying the nominal Mg composition was compared. The X-ray difffraction pattern indicates that Magnesium Oxide (MgO) is the major secondary phase. Some unreacted Mg was found for nominally stoichiometric and Mg excess samples annealed at or below 750°C. However, no unreacted Mg was detected by XRD for Mg deficient samples. Scanning Electron microscopy images show the porous nature of synthesised samples.

This research aims to prepare ZnO NPs by using chemical bath deposition way from ZnSO4 and NaOH as starting materials. It was examined by X-ray diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Zeta potential and Fourier Transformation Infrared. Scanning Electron Microscopy images showed various morphological changes of ZnO nanoparticles obtained by the above method and the different magnification Scanning Electron Microscopy images of the nanoparticle and confirms that the Nano flowers are grown with well-defined morphology and diameters varying between 60-110 nm. The effect of Zinc oxide nanoparticles against bacteria staphylococcus aureus, E.coli and Pseudomous aeruginosa showed the ability of this substance to inhibit the growth of all types of bacteria in different concentrations. The percentage of survival bacteria was (2, 3.7 and 6%) for E.coli bacteria and (1, 1.5 and 5 %) for Pseudomous aeruginosa bacteria, while the percentage was (0.8, 1 and 1.5 %) for staphylococcus aurous respectively for all concentration.
