Preparation and Characterization of BCN–TiO2 Nanoparticles

Talc/TiO2 composite particle was prepared with TiO2 coating on the surfaces of the talc particles by mechano-chemical method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used to investigate the microstructures and morphologies of the composite particles. The mechanism of the mechano-chemical reaction was researched by infrared spectra (IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The prepared talc/TiO2 composite particle has similar pigment properties compared with TiO2, with its hiding power 10.45[Formula: see text]g/cm3 and whiteness 97.49%. The results show that TiO2 coated evenly on the surfaces of the talc particles by Si–O–Ti and Mg–O–Ti bonds through surface dehydroxylation reaction.

Telah dilakukan sintesis dan karakterisasi membran ZSM-5 dengan penyangga kasa jenis 304 ukuran 200 dan 400 mesh dan jenis kasa AISI 316 ukuran 180 mesh. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mensintesis membran ZSM-5 dengan penyangga kasa jenis 304 ukuran 200 dan 400 mesh dan jenis kasa AISI 316 ukuran 180 mesh dan mengkarakterisasi membran ZSM-5 hasil sintesis. Sintesis membran dilakukan dengan cara melapiskan prekursor ZSM-5 (coating) pada penyangga kasa yang telah diberi perlakuan dan dipanaskan pada suhu 90 °C selama 4 hari. Selanjutnya, membran yang dihasilkan dikarakterisasi engan metoda X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) dan Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR). Hasil citra SEM-EDS menunjukkan bahwa ukuran membran ZSM-5 yang semakin besar, menghasilkan jumlah lubang atau pori semakin banyak dengan luasan pori yang semakin kecil. Pola difraksi XRD menunjukkan bahwa membran yang dihasilkan mempunyai intensitas tertinggi pada 2 8º dan 23º yang merupakan karakteristik dari ZSM-5. Hasil spektra FTIR menunjukkan adanya serapan pada bilangan gelombang 450 cm-1yang merupakan ciri khas membran ZSM-5.Characterization of ZSM-5 Membranes Synthesized by Variation of Support Types and Sizes. Synthesis and characterization of ZSM-5 membrane were carried out with 304 type 200 and 400 mesh gauze supports and 180 mesh AISI 316 gauze types. The purpose of this study was to synthesize ZSM-5 membrane with 304 type 200 and 400 mesh gauze support and AISI 316 type 180 mesh size 180 mesh and characterize the synthesized ZSM-5 membrane. Membrane synthesis was carried out by coating the pre-treated gauze support with the ZSM-5 precursor and was heated at 90 °C for 4 days. Furthermore, the resulting membrane was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) dan Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR). The SEM-EDX analysis shows that the increasing of ZSM-5 membrane size allowed pores number to increase with smaller pore surface area. The X-ray Diffraction pattern (XRD) shows that the resulting membrane has the highest intensity at 2 of 8º and 23º as the characteristics of ZSM-5. The FTIR spectra results show absorption at wavenumbers 450 cm-1 which is a characteristic of ZSM-5 membranes.

AbstractThin films of calcium carbonate were deposited on the surfaces of synthetic substrates using a simple biomimetic pathway. The Nylon 66 fiber knit pre-adsorbed with acidic polymers was used as a template for the controlled deposition of CaCO3 thin film. The presence of the soluble macromolecules on the fiber knit surface was characterized using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. The characterization of the mineral films was carried out using scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive Xray scattering (EDX) studies.

This research aims to determine the adsorption capacity composite of andisol soil and coconut shell charcoal as the adsorbent of iron (Fe) metal based on the composition condition, pH, and optimum contact time. Andisol soil was activated with NaOH 3 M solution, and coconut shell charcoal was activated with HCl 4 M solution. The composites were made under various composition of andisol soil/coconut shell charcoal of 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0:100 (w/w). The adsorption test was done on the pH variation of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and used the contact time variation of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 and 60 minutes in a batch method.

Materiais saprolíticos constituem importantes seções no recorte vertical da paisagem. São materiais ainda pouco conhecidos e demandam maior dedicação. Para caracterização destes materiais pode-se fazer uso de técnicas mineralogia e micromorfologia como a difração de Raios-X (DRX) e o Microscópio Eletrônico de Varredura (MEV). O DRX é uma técnica de caracterização de estruturas cristalinas. O MEV é um tipo de microscópio capaz de produzir imagens de alta resolução da superfície de materiais sólidos. O objetivo é caracterizar amostras de materiais intemperizados de diferentes rochas. Foram selecionados cinco perfis de intemperismo em Juiz de Fora - MG. Os parâmetros utilizados para a análise física e mineralógica foram os seguintes: cor, textura, consistência, rocha de origem e grau de alteração, mineralogia e micromorfologia. A cor é variável entre e intra amostras, é dependente dos minerais constituintes e do grau de alteração. A textura está ligada aos minerais constituintes e seus tamanhos, que são dependentes de seus graus de alteração. A consistência é dependente da resistência dos minerais constituintes e da alteração. As rochas de origem são o quartzito ou o gnaisse. Os principais minerais encontrados foram quartzo, biotita, muscovita e caulinita. Quanto maior a porcentagem de argila, menor a consistência e maior o grau de alteração. A presença de minerais mais resistentes tende a dificultar a pedogênese, resultando em perfis mais arenosos, com poucos minerais de argila e sem atividade biológica. Nos perfis em que predomina o quartzo, apesar da presença desse mineral, o grau de alteração é elevado. Physical and Mineralogical Characterization of Weathering Materials in the Urban Area of Juiz de Fora - MG through Macroscopic Analysis, X-Ray Diffractometer and Scanning Electron Microscope ABSTRACTSaprolitic materials are important sections in the vertical cutout of the landscape. These materials are still little known and demand greater dedication. To characterize these materials, we can use mineral and micromorphological techniques such as X-ray diffraction, a technique for characterizing crystalline structures and the Scanning Electron Microscope, a type of microscope capable of producing high-resolution images of the surface of solid materials. The objective is to characterize weathered colors of different stones. Five weathering profiles were selected in Juiz de Fora - MG. The parameters used for physical and mineralogical analysis were as follows: color, texture, consistency, original rock and degree of change, mineralogy and micromorphology. The color is variable, depends on the constituent minerals and the degree of change. The texture is linked to the constituent minerals and their sizes, which depend on their degree of change. The consistency is dependent on the strength of the constituent minerals and the degree of change. The original rocks are quartzite and gneiss. The main minerals found were quartz, biotite, muscovite and kaolinite. The higher the clay percentage, the lower the consistency and the greater the degree of change. The presence of more resistant mineralsmakes pedogenesis difficult, resulting in more sandy profiles, with few clay minerals and without biological activity. In profiles that predominate quartz, despite the presence of this mineral, the degree of change is high.Keywords: Mineralogy; Micromorphology; Weathering material.
