In this paper, the effective nanocompoties (EFNCs) as drug carriers are prepared by grafting reaction of cationic chitosan (CS) and anionic tripolyphosphate (TPP) to encapsulate cancer therapeutic agents such as berberine (BB), KCY-24B…etc. These EFNCs were featured by ultra violet–visible-near infrared spectrophotometer (UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometer), fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FT-IR), zetasizer, transmission electron microscope (TEM) and field-emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). So we can obtain here the synthetic method, characterization, and functionality of these effective nanoparticles.

In the present work, we have reported a facile and large-scale synthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) through urea-assisted thermal decomposition of titanium oxysulphate. We have successfully synthesized TiO2 NPs by using this effective route with different weight ratios of titanium oxysulphate: urea. The structures and properties of TiO2 NPs were confirmed by scanning electron microscope) (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), ultra violet–visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), and photoluminescence (Pl) techniques. XRD demonstrated that TiO2 NPs holds of anatase crystal phase with crystallizing size 14–19 nm even after heating at 600 °C. TGA, SEM, and TEM images reveal urea’s role, which controls the size, morphology, and aggregation of TiO2 NPs during the thermal decomposition. These TiO2 NPs were employed for photodegradation of Methyl Orange (MO) in the presence of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. An interesting find was that the TiO2 NPs exhibited better photocatalytic activity and excellent recycling stability over several photodegradation cycles. Furthermore, the present method has a great perspective to be used as an efficient method for large-scale synthesis of TiO2 NPs.

Nanotechnology offers a great opportunity for efficient removal of pollutants and pathogenic microorganisms in water. Copper nanoparticles were synthesized using a polysaccharide bioflocculant and its flocculation, removal efficiency, and antimicrobial properties were evaluated. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using thermogravimetry, UV-Visible spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The highest flocculation activity (FA) was achieved with the lowest concentration of copper nanoparticles (0.2 mg/mL) with 96% (FA) and the least flocculation activity was 80% at 1 mg/mL. The copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) work well without the addition of the cation as the flocculation activity was 96% and worked best at weak acidic, neutral, and alkaline pH with the optimal FA of 96% at pH 7. Furthermore, the nanoparticles were found to be thermostable with 91% FA at 100 °C. The synthesized copper nanoparticles are also high in removal efficiency of staining dyes, such as safranin (92%), carbol fuchsine (94%), malachite green (97%), and methylene blue (85%). The high removal efficiency of nutrients such as phosphate and total nitrogen in both domestic wastewater and Mzingazi river water was observed. In comparison to ciprofloxacin, CuNPs revealed some remarkable properties as they are able to kill both the Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms.

The magnetic copolymer was prepared by polymerization of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and divinylbenzene (DVB) in the presence of OA-modified magnetic nano-particles. The magnetic strong-base anion exchange resin (MAER) was formed by quaternization of magnetic copolymer. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used for observation of prepared magnetic nano-particle and MAER, respectively. FT-IR spectrometer was used to characterize the magnetic nano-particle and MAER. To explore the potential application of MAER for natural organic matter (NOM) removal, completely-mixed (CMC) mode was used for humic acid (HA) adsorption. It was found that the HA removal for CMC mode with MAER resin was 10~20% higher than conventional process before breakthrough.

Anatase/brookite mixtured TiO2nanoparticles have been synthesized by using a two-step process through a chimie douce technique. The as-prepared powders were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and a nitrogen adsorption apparatus in multipoint Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method. The results indicated that the TiO2nanoparticles were composed of biphasial anatase/brookite mixtures, 38% anatase phase formed in quasi-spherical shape and 62% brookite phase formed in nanorod shape. The specific surface area, the average pore diameter, and the specific pore volume were 100.06 m2/g, 14.0 nm, and 0.561 cm3/g, respectively.

Abstract Stevia rebaudiana plant leaves were used for biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Transmission electron microscope ( TEM ) images showed various shapes and sizes of AuNPs. Various amounts of AuNPs were added to polyvinyl alcohol/carboxymethylcellulose ( PVA / CMC , 40/60) via the casting method. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrum of pure blend shows the amorphous nature of the blend. FT-IR spectra showed the interaction between PVA / CMC and AuNPs. The ultra-violet and visible (UV/VIS.) spectra showed emerge new peak of surface plasmon resonance ( SPR ) of AuNPs for the filled samples. SEM images showed bright spots on the sample's surface, which was attributed to AuNPs. AC conductivity exhibited enhancement after the addition of gold nanoparticles. The ε′ and ε″ were reduced with increasing the frequency due to direction dipoles of applied electric field. Because of the mobile charges inside the polymeric backbone, higher values of ε′ and ε″ were observed at low frequencies. The tanδ showed increased with an increase in AuNPs concentration and at the decrease the frequency, as expected.

An efficient method of preparing nanostarch using high-intensity ultrasonic irradiation and acid hydrolysis was discussed. The transmission electron microscope (TEM) showed that the nanosized starch particles were in shape of sphere with the size of 80-120 nm, and their surfaces were rough with many flocci. The Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR) revealed that the products maintained the original biological characteristics, and the molecules did not undergo any chemical changes. In addition, the effects of experimental conditions were analyzed and a plausible mechanism was proposed to explain the formation of the nanostarch.

Tannic acid–linked silica-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2@Tannic acid) were prepared and characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM), field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Fe3O4@SiO2@Tannic acid supplies an environmentally friendly procedure for the synthesis of some novel 5-amino-pyrazole-4-carbonitriles through the three-component mechanochemical reactions of synthetized azo-linked aldehydes, malononitrile, and phenylhydrazine or p-tolylhydrazine. These compounds were produced in high yields and at short reaction times. The catalyst could be easily recovered and reused for six cycles with almost consistent activity. The structures of the synthesized 5-amino-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile compounds were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and FTIR spectra, and elemental analyses.

In this paper carboxylated carbon nanotubes/polypyrrole composite (CNTs/PPy) was synthesized in different surfactants aqueous under sonication. Carboxylated CNTs was synthesized in hydrogen nitrate by ultrasonic method and coated by PPy. The synthesized CNTs/PPy in different surfactants was evaluated by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR) and transmission electron microscope. The FT-IR patterns illustrate that CNTs were successfully doped by PPy. The morphology of CNTs/PPy synthesized showed on the transmission electron microscope images. The composite materials sythesized without surfactant are easy reunited. It is also found the surface of CNTs/PPy synthesized in cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) is smoother than that in other surfactants. The coating effect is better with thicker coating layer. The higher magnification of HRTEM images show the PPy was deposited directly on the surface of carbon nanotubes. The final products are the ordered coaxial composite with well-defined core-shell structure.
