Vanadium phosphate catalysts have been prepared by calcining VOHPO44·0.5H2O which were prepared via two methods i.e. organic (VPO method) and dihydrate (VPD method) routes for different duration under anaerobic atmosphere. Increasing the calcinations duration led to a decrease in total surface area. It is also promote the formation of V5+phase in the catalysts. Scanning electron microscopy clearly revealed that the morphologies of all catalysts composed of plate-like crystallites that were arranged into the characteristic of rosette cluster. However, by increasing the pretreatment duration in an inert environment, the rosette-shape of the clusters which normally obtained in reaction condition was collapsed. Prolong the duration of N2calcination also resulted in an increment in the amount of oxygen desorbed (from O2-TPD) and removed (obtained from H2-TPR).

In seven anesthetized rabbits we measured the size, shape, and density of lymphatic stomata on the peritoneal and pleural sides of the diaphragm. The diaphragm was fixed in situ and processed for scanning electron microscopy. Results are from 2,902 peritoneal and 3,086 pleural fields (each 1,620 microns 2) randomly chosen from the various specimens. Stomata were seen in 9% of the fields examined, and in 30% of the cases they appeared grouped in clusters with 2-14 stomata/field. Stoma density was 250 +/- 242 and 72 +/- 57 (SD) stomata/mm2 on peritoneal and pleural sides, respectively, and it was similar over the muscular and tendinous portion of the two surfaces. The maximum diameter ranged from less than 1 to approximately 30 microns, with an average value of 1.2 +/- 3.1 micron. The ratio of the maximum to the minimum diameter and the surface area averaged 2 +/- 1.4 and 0.7 +/- 2.4 micron 2, respectively. The maximum and minimum diameter and surface area values followed a lognormal frequency distribution, suggesting that stomata geometry is affected by diaphragmatic tension.

The efficiency of implantable electrodes for cardiac pacing depends on the ratio of the conductive surface area to the geometric area of the interface with excitable tissue. New models of heart pacers require reduction of post-pulse polarization, i.e. the potential left on the electrode / tissue interface after a pacemaker pulse. Increasing the conductive surface area is an effective method to this end. Microscopy provides an important tool in elucidating the role of surface structure in electrode performance.Three different surface textures were characterized on a 90% platinum(Pt)/10% iridium (Ir) polished electrode substrate of roughly 5 mm2 geometric surface area. These consisted of the polished substrate itself, a thin film of textured platinum in the 1-3 micron size range, and a sub-micron platinum black coating. Sample surface effects were characterized via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), in-vitro electrical impedance spectrum analysis, and polarization after-potential measurements.

Industri tekstil semakin berkembang seiring dengan pertumbuhan penduduk di Indonesia. Selain memberikan manfaat, industri tekstil  memberikan dampak negatif bagi lingkungan akibat penggunaan zat warna sintetis, salah satunya yaitu methyl violet. Apabila limbah tersebut dibuang ke perairan akan menyebabkan rusaknya ekologi lingkungan dan ancaman bagi kesehatan manusia, karena sebagian besar zat warna bersifat sukar terurai (non-bidegradable) dan karsinogenik (Brono, 2010). Salah satu metode yang terbukti efektif untuk menghilangkan zat warna adalah adsorpsi menggunakan karbon aktif. Pada penelitian ini karbon aktif dibuat dari limbah daun nanas dengan aktivator ZnCl2 dan pemanasan gelombang mikro. Selanjutnya, karbon aktif tersebut dikarakteriasi morfologi permukaan menggunakan Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), luas permukaan menggunakan Surface Area Analyzer, dan analisis gugus fungsi menggunakan Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer, dan digunakan untuk menjerap methyl violet di larutan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa karbon aktif dari limbah daun nanas yang teraktivasi ZnCl2 menghasilkan pori yang lebih besar dibandingkan dengan karbon tanpa aktivasi serta memiliki gugus fungsi yang dapat menjerap methyl violet. Kondisi optimum untuk adsorpsi adalah pH 5, waktu kontak 90 menit, dan konsentrasi awal 500 mg/L. Model kesetimbangan yang sesuai yaitu menggunakan model isotherm freundlich.

The observation that hair cell tuning curves exhibit frequency selectivity as sharply tuned as that seen in auditory nerve fibers has prompted closer examination of the sensory hairs or stereocilia. The present study was designed to examine the morphologic organization of inner hair cell stereocilia in a mammalian species, the neonatal C57BL/6J mouse. The cochleae of mice were fixed in OSO4, dehydrated, dissected, and prepared for scanning electron microscopy. An examination of the number of stereocilia per inner hair cell revealed an orderly decrease from base to apex. Conversely, there was a 300% increase in the height of the tallest stereocilia, a 100% increase in the height of the middle row stereocilia, and a 30% increase in shortest stereocilia from base to apex. The total surface area of the stereocilia, per hair cell, was shown to increase by approximately 250% from the base to the apex of the cochlea.

Brewing spent diatomite (BSDT), a beer industrial by-product, was regenerated with calcination. The characteristics of regenerated BSDT were detected by X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, Fourier-transform infrared, and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the mineralization of the surface adsorbate and the remarkable increase in the Si-OH decreased the pHpzc value from 7.6 to 5.2 and increased the surface area from 36 m2/g to 52 m2/g after calcination at 800 °C. The results show that the regenerated BSTD could be employed as an efficient adsorbent for the recycling of BSDT.

The present paper reports data concerning magnesia samples obtained by calcination of different precursor salts at different increasing temperatures (873–1253 K). The oxides are characterized by x- ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and N2 adsorption at subcritical temperatures. The samples appear to be composed, at any temperature, of pure periclase with a degree of crystallinity which increases with the temperature of calcination. Morphologically, the products have the shape either of lamellas or of cubes of variable dimensions, depending on the nature and route of preparation of the precursor salts. The variation of the specific surface area and the degree of porosity with the nature of the precursors and the temperature is discussed.

ABSTRACTA SiC/Ti-24AI-11 Nb (at. %) composite (30–35 vol. %) was thermally cycled in air and an inert environment between 150 °C and 815 °C for various cycle counts. Various hold times at maximum temperature were employed to determine timedependent effects on composite integrity. Laminate orientations investigated included: [0]4, [0]8, [90]4, [90]8 and [0/90]2S. Acoustic emission produced during thermal fatigue of selected specimens was employed to monitor damage progression. Post-cycling room temperature tension tests as well as optical and scanning electron microscopy were used to document damage, which was particularly acute when hold times at temperature were employed on tests performed in air. The roles of the environment, composite thickness, and off-axis fibers during thermal fatigue on the composite strength and integrity are discussed.

ABSTRACT:The authors have proposed a method for the selective crystallization of a SAPO-11 silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve with a micro-mesoporous structure. It has been shown that crystallization of a silicoaluminophosphate gel, in the preparation of which its isopropoxide is used as a source of aluminum, makes it possible to obtain a SAPO-11 molecular sieve with a specific surface area of ​​~ 207 m2 / g, a volume of micro- and mesopores of ~ 0.08 and 0.09 cm3 / g. , respectively. Using scanning electron microscopy, it was demonstrated that the crystals of the material are pseudospherical particles ~ 8-10 microns in size, consisting of aggregates of nanocrystals ~ 100-200 nm in size.
