ABSTRACTClay-polymer nanoparticulate composite materials are evaluated by the X-ray diffraction technique. The basal plane spacing provided information about the degree of intercalation and exfoliation of the 2: 1 layered clay structure. Both intercalation and exfoliation are controlled by the identity of the polymer and the clay:polymer ratio.

This study evaluates the physical properties of freeze dried tropical (guava, sapota, and papaya) fruit powders. Thermal stability and weight loss were evaluated using TGA-DSC and IR, which showed pectin as the main solid constituent. LCR meter measured electrical conductivity, dielectric constant, and dielectric loss factor. Functional groups assessed by FTIR showed presence of chlorides, and O–H and N–H bonds in guava, chloride and C–H bond in papaya, and chlorides, and C=O and C–H bonds in sapota. Particle size and type of starch were evaluated by X-ray diffraction and microstructure through scanning electronic microscopy. A semicrystalline profile and average particle size of the fruit powders were evidenced by X-ray diffraction and lamellar/spherical morphologies by SEM. Presence of A-type starch was observed in all three fruits. Dependence of electric and dielectric properties on frequency and temperature was observed.

The sediment of #3 Well of the Greater Ughelli Depobelt are represented by sand and shale intercalation. In this study, lithofacies analysis and X-ray diffraction technique were used to characterize the sediments from the well. The lithofacies analysis was based on the physical properties of the sediments encountered from the ditch cuttings.  Five lithofacies types of mainly sandstone, clayey sandstone, shaly sandstone, sandy shale and shale and 53 lithofacies zones were identified from 15 ft to 11295 ft. The result of the X-ray diffraction analysis identified that the following clay minerals – kaolinite, illite/muscovite, sepiolite, chlorite, calcite, dolomite; with kaolinite in greater percentage. The non-clay minerals include quartz, pyrite, anatase, gypsum, plagioclase, microcline, jarosite, barite and fluorite; with quartz having the highest percentage. Therefore, due to the high percentage of kaolinite in #3 well, the pore filing kaolinite may have more effect on the reservoir quality than illite/muscovite, chlorite and sepiolite. By considering the physical properties, homogenous and heterogeneous nature of the #3 Well, it would be concluded that #3 Well has some prospect for petroleum and gas exploration.

Objective : Acyclovir (ACV) is well-known antiviral agent that has absorption problem, mainly due to its poor solubility in water and oral bioavailability. To improve acyclovir physical properties, especially dissolution properties, acyclovirnicotinamide(NCT) cocrystal was formed. Methods : ACV-NCT cocrystal was prepared using slurry method using ethanol as solvent with different concentration. The ACV-NCT cocrystal from each sample groups was characterized using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and then dissolution properties evaluated. Results : Each ACV-NCT cocrystals prepared from slurry method with different ethanol concentrations have different PXRD profile. Dissolution analysis (ED15) showed that ACV-NCT cocrystallization using slurry methods with 10,0 ml/g as ethanol concentration significantly increase ED15 values compared to acyclovir and acyclovir-nicotinamide physical mixture (α=0,05). Conclusion : ACV-NCT cocrystal successfully formed using slurry method with 10,0 ml/g as optimal ethanol concentration.

The purpose of this research was to investigate physical properties, configuration and color of topaz. Topazes were irradiated with electron beam linear accelerator at different dose from 40 to 180 MGy. The color of topaz was analyzed by UV-vis and it was shown that the color of topaz was becoming strong color with increased electron beam dose. Crystal structure and function group of topaz were characterized by X- ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The results showed that the topaz has orthorhombic structure and no other crystalline. After irradiated, topaz released OH indicating higher crystallinity of topaz and this was confirmed with the results of electron spin resonance (ESR). Electron beam dose response of topaz was investigated. ESR results showed that the Al3+ ion was substituted in Si4+ site and Ti3+ impurity in Al4+ site and this result corresponds to the results of FTIR. The experiment result indicated that electron beam could be making defect on crystal structure and color enhancement of topaz.

The structures of the layered intergrowth phases SbIIISb^{\rm V}_xAl-xTiO6 (x \simeq 0, A = Ta, Nb) have been refined by the Rietveld method, using X-ray diffraction data obtained using a synchrotron source. The starting models for these structures were derived from those of Sb^{\rm III}_3Sb^{\rm V}_xA 3−xTiO14 (x = 1.26, A = Ta and x = 0.89, A = Nb), previously solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. There were no significant differences between the derived models and the final structures, validating the approach used to obtain the models and confirming that the n = 1 and n = 3 members of the family, Sb^{\rm III}_nSb^{\rm V}_xA n−xTiO4n+2 are part of a structurally homologous series.

Lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6) films were deposited on Si (111) substrates by magnetron sputtering method. The characterization of the films was investigated by means of atom force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), four-point probe electrical resistance measurement, scratch tester and nano-indentation tester. Influence of argon pressure on physical properties, such as crystallization degree, conductivity and mechanical properties was studied. All the films were smooth and dense. The film crystallites showed a preferential orientation of (100) plane, but the films which were deposited at 2.0 Pa exhibited amorphous structures. LaB6 films which were deposited below 1.5 Pa had excellent conductivity. The bonding strength of the films which were deposited at 1.0 Pa was higher than the others due to the formation of the nano-sized crystals. The hardness and elastic modulus were investigated in connection with the crystalline of LaB6 films. As a result, the films which were deposited at 1.0 Pa had a maximal value of hardness (16.782 Gpa) and elasticity modulus (193.895 Gpa). In a word, the LaB6 films which were deposited at 1.0 Pa have a higher degree of crystalline and more excellent physical properties in comparison with the others. The obtained results will be used synthesizing LaB6 films for applications in low-temperature thermoelectric devices.
