According to Rasa Ratna Samucchaya, Kantalauha is considered as the best variety among Lauhas for Lauha Bhasma compared with Tikshna and Munda Lauha. The present study deals with the “Preparation of Kantalauha bhasma by two different methods and its Sindoora Nirmana- A Comparative Pharmaceutico-Analytical Study. Two different Kantalauha Bhasma and their Kanta Sindoora were prepared as per classical reference and the samples were subjected to Classical and Modern Analytical Parameters, XRD, EDX, SEM, FT-IR, and NPST. Pharmaceutically Kantalauha Bhasma 1 has attained Bhasma Siddhi Lakshanas in 16 Putas and Kantalauha Bhasma 2 in 3 Putas. Both the samples of Kanta Sindoora attained Sindoora Varna by 3 Putas. SEM analysis showed that Kantalauha Bhasma 1 and Kanta Sindoora 1 attained the smallest particle size. XRD showed the presence of compound Fe2O3 in all the samples. EDAX confirmed the presence of Fe, O2, Mg, Al, Si, S, K and Ca. The FT-IR analysis of all the samples shows the presence of 10 Absorption Peak frequencies cm-1. NPST proved the fineness and proper formation of Bhasma samples. Among the two different methods of Kantalauha Bhasma preparation, the 1st method is found better in yield wise and cost-wise. The second method saved the time as it attained Bhasma Siddhi Lakshanas within 3 puts. In the case of Kanta Sindoora, yield wise both the samples were found almost the same.

Isotactic polypropylene (iPP) is a commonly used thermoplastic polymer with many excellent properties. But high brittleness, especially at low temperatures, limits the use of iPP. The presence of transcrystallization of iPP makes it possible for fiber-reinforced iPP composites with higher strength. Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a kind of cellulose with great potential to be used as a new filler to reinforce iPP due to its high crystallinity, biodegradability and efficient mechanical properties. In this study, the iPP/BC hamburger composite was prepared by a simple hot press and maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MAPP) was used to improve the interface compatibility of iPP and BC. The polarizing microscope (POM) photograph shows that BC successfully induces the transcrystallization of iPP. The differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) date proves that the addition of BC could improve the thermal properties and crystallization rate of the composite. Especially, this change is more obvious of the iPP/MAPP/BC. The mechanical properties of the iPP/BC composites were greatly increased. This DSC date is higher than BC; we used BC particles to enhance the iPP in our previous research. The scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis intuitively shows that the interface of the iPP/MAPP/BC is more smooth and flat than the iPP/BC. The fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis of the iPP/BC hamburger composites was shown that a new C=O group vibration appeared at 1743 cm−1, which indicated that the hydrogen bond structure of BC molecules was weakened and some hydroxyl groups were substituted after modification which can increase the lipophilicity of BC. These results indicated that the BC fiber can easily induce the transcrystallization of iPP, which has excellent mechanical properties. Moreover, the addition of MAPP contributes greatly to the interface compatibility of iPP and BC.

The mixture of wheat straw (WS) and polyester (PC) was liquefied in supercritical ethanol. Liquefied products produced and liquefied residue from the liquefaction under different supercritical conditions were analyzed by GC-MS, SEM and IR. GC-MS analysis of the liquefied products indicates that ethanol would decompose. And the most compounds in the liquefied product had the structure of phenol and phenol derivatives, which came from the degradation products of PC and WS. SEM analysis show that the wheat straw powder possessed larger particles with smooth surfaces while the residue from liquefaction had smaller particles with rough surfaces because of drastically degraded from the wheat straw powder surface under supercritical conditions. FT-IR analysis showed that the lignin was easily degraded during the liquefaction process, and also found to the cellulose is very difficult to liquefy for its crystalline structure.

Zinc phthalocyanine was prepared with improved method with high yields and characterized by XRD and FT-IR analysis. The SEM analysis was also conducted to demonstrate the apparent morphology of the synthesized compound. Dimerization of the zinc phthalocyanine was measured by UV-Vis spectroscopy in N, N-dimethyl formamide (DMF). The red–shift of maximum absorption wavelength and deviation from Lambert-Beer law was observed with increasing the concentration.

A series of natural materials used for oil absorption based on corn stalks have been prepared by acylation grafting with propionic anhydride in a solvent-free system at 100 and 140 °C for 2-6 h. It is found that the oil (benzene) sorption capacity of the grafted corn stalks is about 8.5- 12.6g/g (in 15 minutes), and the grafted material is significantly more hydrophobic than the raw corn stalks. The grafted corn stalk float on the surface of water, as the oil, can be easily to be removed when the application is completed. Fourier infrared (FT-IR) analysis is used to confirm the chemical reaction which takes place between corn stalks and propionic anhydride. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis is used to determine the structure of the grafted corn stalk material.

The failure behavior of Poly (ether urethanes) in ozone atmosphere was investigated by FTIR, UV-Vis spectra and SEM analysis. It is found that some oxygen-containing groups such as the hydroxyl group and the carbonyl group increase first and then slightly decrease with the ozone oxidation time and the carbohydryl and ether bonds decrease slowly. After oxidation by ozone, the polyurethane molecule chains break on C-O in ether and urethane groups instead of chain crosslinking. In addition, ozone oxidization increases the color difference and lowers the UV light transparence of polyurethane.


Spinel ZnAl2O4 nanoparticles were prepared effectively by simplistic, economical microwave heating method using Hibiscus rosa-sinensis extract as reducing agent. The samples were successfully characterized by XRD pattern, EDX spectra, FT-IR analysis, HR-SEM analysis, and VSM instrumentation techniques. XRD, EDX and FT-IR results demonstrated that the products contain a pure single-phase spinel structure lacking of other secondary phase impurities. SEM results confirmed the spherical shaped nanoparticle morphology of the sample. Magnetic characterization property was confirmed by VSM analysis. VSM hysteresis loop established the superparamegnetism of the sample and the magnetization (Ms) value of ZnAl2O4 is 0.023 emu/g.

Polarized infrared microscopy has been used for forensic purposes to differentiate among polymer fibers. Dichroism can be used to compare and discriminate between different polyester fibers, including those composed of polyethylene terephthalate that are frequently encountered during criminal casework. In the fiber manufacturering process, fibers are drawn to develop molecular orientation and crystallinity. Macromolecular chains are oriented with respect to the long axis of the fiber. It is desirable to determine the relationship between the molecular orientation and stretching properties. This is particularly useful on a single fiber basis. Polarized spectroscopic differences observed from a single fiber are proposed to reveal the extent of molecular orientation within that single fiber. In the work presented, we compared the dichroic ratio between unstretched and stretched polyester fibers, and the transition point between the two forms of the same fiber. These techniques were applied to different polyester fibers. A fiber stretching device was fabricated for use on the instrument (IRμs, Spectra-Tech) stage. Tension was applied with a micrometer screw until a “neck” was produced in the stretched fiber. Spectra were obtained from an area of 24×48 μm. A wire-grid polarizer was used between the source and the sample.
