AbstractNanocomposites plays a very significant role in the catalysis and photocatalysis. Our aim is to synthesize multiphase nanocomposite material with advanced catalytic properties that are useful in the energy and environmental applications. Nano silver (Ag0) decorated Zinc-Cobalt/Titania composite (Ag decorated Zn-Co/TiO2, AZCT) with nonporous in nature as well as single grain size of 10–15 nm with beautiful morphological in nature. The material has multiphase crystalline in nature predicted from the powdered X-ray diffraction studies (PXRD) and FT-IR analysis, which illustrate the multiphase crystalline powder with high surface area of nanoporous in nature. The synthesized nanocomposite material is labelled as AZCT.

Secondary Contamination

So-called ' ilmenite ', 'leucoxene' and 'rutile' grades of commercial heavy mineral concentrates were fractionated magnetically, in the laboratory. In the less magnetic ractions, secondary TiO2 (both anatase and rutile ), formed by the alteration of ilmenite grains, was separated from primary rutile, on the basis of density. The separated fractions were examined by optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) methods, thereby insights being gained into the nature of secondary contamination in altered ilmenite. Grains of secondary TiO2 are very porous and report with an effective density <4.0 g/cm3 in a Magstream separator. Nearly all of these grains, which were distinctively fawn or dull grey in colour, were shown to contain epitaxially oriented, polycrystalline rutile , by single-grain XRD. The porosity of the grey grains was fine and uniform, � whereas the fawn grains contained coarse pores within a trellis of the oriented rutile. Randomly oriented anatase powder occurred with the oriented rutile in some fawn grains. Such trellis textures could facilitate the subsequent ingress of contaminants. Electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) indicated considerable variation in the level of contaminants, between grains, but the averaged analyses for a given fraction were in broad agreement with bulk analyses by X-ray fluorescence (XRF). XRD of single grains showed that anatase occurred significantly more often in fawn grains that were extracted from EPMA mounts because of their high levels of contaminants. The anatase may provide a high surface area for adsorption of contaminants, and/or be an indicator of a past environment where 'insoluble' oxides have been more mobile.

The environmental applications of graphene oxide and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) have attracted great attention since their first discovery. Novel nanocomposites were successfully prepared by using an esterification reaction between β-cyclodextrin/γ-(2,3-epoxypropoxy) propyl trimethoxysilane grafted graphene oxide (β-CD/GPTMS/GO). The β-CD/GPTMS/GO nanocomposites were used to remove the Cu2+ from aqueous solutions. The characteristics of β-CD/GPTMS/GO were detected by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TG) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX). The dispersibility of graphene oxide was excellent due to the addition of β-CD. The adsorption isotherms data obtained at the optimum pH 7 were fitted by Langmuir isotherm model. The excellent adsorption properties of β-CD/GPTMS/GO for Cu2+ ions could be attributed to the apolar cavity structure of β-CD, the high surface area and abundant functional groups on the surface of GO. The adsorption patterns of β-CD/GPTMS/GO were electrostatic attraction, formation of host-guest inclusion complexes and the ion exchange adsorption. The efficient adsorption of β-CD/GPTMS/GO for Cu2+ ions suggested that these novel nanocomposites may be ideal candidates for removing other cation pollutants from waste water.

Lithium Molybdate

In this work, molybdena-promoted Li/MgO is studied as a catalyst for the oxidative conversion of n-hexane. The structure of the catalysts is investigated with X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. The MoO3/Li/MgO catalyst contains three types of molybdena-containing species, the presence of which depend on molybdena loading. At low Mo/Li ratios (i) isolated dispersed [MoO4]2− anionic species are observed. At high Mo/Li ratios, the formation of crystalline lithium molybdate phases such as (ii) monomeric Li2MoO4 and tentatively (iii) polymeric Li2Mo4O13 are concluded. The presence of these lithium molybdates diminishes the formation of Li2CO3 in the catalyst. Subsequently, the catalyst maintains high surface area and stability with time-on-stream during oxidative conversion. Molybdena loading as low as 0.5 wt % is sufficient to induce these improvements, maintaining the non-redox characteristics of the catalyst, whereas higher loadings enhance deep oxidation and oxidative dehydrogenation reactions. Promoting a Li/MgO catalyst with 0.5 wt % MoO3 is thus efficient for selective conversion of n-hexane to alkenes, giving alkene yield up to 24% as well as good stability.

In the current study, linear dextrin (LD) was prepared using waxy potato starch debranched with pullulanase, which has attracted immense interest in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries as a versatile ingredient. Various LDs were separated on the basis of their differential solubility in aqueous/ethanol solutions of different volumetric ratios. Three LD products—LD Fabrications with 40% ethanol (F-40); LD Fabrications with 50% ethanol (F-50); and LD Fabrications with 60%, 70%, and 80% ethanol (F-M)—were obtained with an average degree of polymerization (DP) values of 31.44, 21.84, and 16.10, respectively. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis revealed that the reaction mainly involved hydrogen bonding and a hydrophobic interaction between LD and insulin in the process of inclusion complex formation. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicated that insulin was encapsulated in LD. The results of circular dichroism (CD) showed that the changes in the secondary structure of insulin were negligible during the release from the inclusion complexes. The order of encapsulation capacity is as follows: the complex composed of F-M and insulin (F-M-INS) > the complex composed of LD and insulin (LD-INS) > the complex composed of F-50 and insulin (F-50-INS) > and the complex composed of F-40 and insulin (F-40-INS). F-M-INS inclusion complexes showed a better effect on reducing the release of insulin in gastric juice and promoting the release of insulin in intestinal juice and blood plasma than LD-INS.

Oxidation Of Glucose

In order to develop non-noble metal-based electrocatalysts for glucose oxidation, the Ni-doped, urchin-like Bi2S3 particles were prepared by a solvothermal method using the solvent of ethylene glycol/H2O. The obtained products were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The background signal from capacitance current is relatively low and the electrocatalytic oxidation current of glucose relatively high due to the urchin-like nanostructure of Bi2S3 particles and high surface area where the presence of Bi also improves the electrocatalytic performance of NiII/NiIII shift.

The sorption of Pb2+from solution by polyvinyl chloride waste was investigated. The morphological features of the polymer sample were studied using the energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD), and the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Equilibrium, kinetic, and thermodynamic batch adsorption experiments were carried out by the concentration, time, and temperature effects, respectively. The morphological image of the polymer showed irregular small size particles which indicated a high surface area and porosity that facilitated sorption. The adsorption studies recorded relatively rapid uptake of Pb2+by the polymer which was mainly diffusion controlled and followed a second order kinetic process. The thermodynamic studies suggested relatively low temperature (low energy) favoured sorption which was exothermic with a physisorption mechanism.
