Sodium polyphosphate-crosslinked starch was synthesized by using cassava starch and sodium polyphosphate as main material and crosslinked agent individually. On above basis, double crosslinked amphoteric cassava starch resin was synthesized through three steps of reactions, which included the inner-crosslinked reaction of starch with N,N'-methylene bisacrylamide, the grafted reaction of the obtained copolymer with dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride (DMDAAC) and the grafted reaction of the obtained copolymer with acrylic acid. The product was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicate that the cassava starch was modified successfully. Adsorption behavior of Hg2+ was studied in the condition of different adsorption time, and found that the removal rate and the adsorption capacity of Hg2+ reached up to 95.98% and 191.97 mg/g respectively.

Sodium polyphosphate-crosslinked starch was synthesized by using cassava starch and sodium polyphosphate as main material and crosslinked agent individually. On above basis, double crosslinked amphoteric cassava starch resin was synthesized by N,N'-methylene bisacrylamide as inner-crosslinked agent, dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride (DMDAAC) and acrylic acid as amphoteric grafted monomer. The product was characterized by infrared spectrum (FTIR). The results indicate that the cassava starch was modified successfully, and the final product was double crosslinked amphoteric cassava starch resin. Adsorption behavior of Cu2+ was studied in the condition of different adsorption time, and found that the removal rate and the adsorption capacity of Cu2+ reached up to 98.3% and 196.6 mg/g respectively.

Abstract In the present study, a combined use of photonic microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and 3D X-ray tomography is carried out in order to analyze the dispersion and the distribution of raw and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-intercalated kaolinite used as filler in cassava starch-based films. It is shown that the association of these techniques allows a valuable analysis of clay dispersion in polymer-clay composite films. In the case of kaolinite-starch composite films on which this study is focused, it is obvious that previous intercalation of kaolinite with DMSO is an efficient way to improve dispersion and distribution of kaolinite in a starch polymer matrix.

In this paper, acrylic acid was grafted to chitosan in order to change the structure; polymer was obtained from modified chitosan. A series of novel toughened composite NF memebranes were prepared by over-coating the polysulfone ultrafiltration membrane with the polymer of modified chitosan. The chitosan derivatives and the polymer were characterised by infrared spectrophotometer (IR); the structure of the membrane was characrerised by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM). The composite NF membrane’s performances were strictly related to the structure of polymer. The rejection of the membrane was 96.3% with flux as high as 386.46 L m-2 h-1 with the 1000 mg/L of NaCl. Tensile strength of membrane increased 46%. The HCl (5%) resistance increased from 20.3 to 36.8h. The NaOH (5%) resistance increased from 18.3 to 31.6h. These results indicated the prepared toughened composite NF memebrane was excellent NF membrane, which had a wide application prospect.

Solid waste red mud was modified by HCl leaching. The structure property and composition of modified red mud were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET). Under UV irradiation, methyl orange (MO) aqueous solution was photodegraded by modified red mud. The obtained results showed that the specific surface area of modified red mud was 317.14 m2/g, which was about 40 times higher than that of the normal red mud. After UV irradiation for 50 min, the removal percentage of MO reached 94.2%. The study provided a novel way for the application of red mud to the photocatalytic degradation of organic wastes.

Al2O3−34 wt.% TiC ceramics have been machined with a KrF (248 nm) excimer laser under normal atmosphere. In the initial steps of the irradiation process both the roughness and the removal rate present a strong variation with the number of pulses. After approximately 200 pulses the process reaches a stationary regime where the roughness and the removal rate become constant. Characterization of the machined areas by scanning electron microscopy showed that the variations in roughness and removal rate are related to the evolution of the surface topography of the samples. Also, as a consequence of laser irradiation, TiC and Al2O3 are partially transformed into TiO2, TiC0.7N0.3, and an Al–Ti solid solution.

Monodispersed ZrO2 (includes 8mol % Y2O3) precursor nanoparticles, which were well dispersed in aqueous solution, were successfully synthesized. The as-synthesized ZrO2 precursor nanoparticles were homogenously coated on the surface of polystyrene particles. Multilayer coating process was successfully implemented by using polyacrylic acid (PAA) to modify the surface charges of the coated particles, which was characterized by zeta-potential, particles size distribution and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

The synthesized oxide (SnO2) nanoparticles by sol-gel method were characterized using UV-Visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-rays diffraction(XRD) and Scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Using X-rays diffraction analysis different parameter were calculated such as crystallite size, d-spacing, dislocation density, number of unit cell, cell volume, morphological index, micro strain and instrumental broadening. The average particle size was 28.396 nm. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that SnO2 nanopartcles are uniformly distributed. Optical properties such as band gap (energy gap = 3.6 eV) was calculated from UV-Visible spectroscopy. The characterized particles were used as photocatalyst for the degradation of Eosin dye in aqueous solution under UV light. The effect of different parameters i.e irradiation time, initial dye concentration, pH of the medium and catalyst weight on percent degradation was also studied. Mmaximum dye degradation was found at 220 minutes time interval that was 92 % using 10 ppm solution. At pH 5 the degradation of dye was found to be 94%. The catalyst dose of 0.06 g was found to be the optimum weight for the best photo catalytic degradation of Eosin Y.

Abstract The SiO2 and Ni/SiO2 coatings were electrophoretically deposited on X2CrNiMo17-12-2 steel using ethanol-based suspensions of the SiO2 and Ni powders. The influence of the zeta potential and concentration of the suspensions, the applied voltage and deposition time on the quality of the coatings was studied. Microstructure of the plan-view and cross sections of the coatings was investigated using scanning electron microscopy. The plan-view images revealed the uniform microstructure of the coatings with sporadically observed cracks, pores as well SiO2 and Ni agglomerates. On the cross-sections, the Cr2O3 layer, resulted from oxidation of the substrate during sintering of the coatings was observed. The polarization tests have shown that SiO2 and Ni/SiO2 coatings improve the corrosion resistance of the X2CrNiMo17-12-2 steel in 3.5% NaCl aqueous solution.
