With the current paper three nano-Montmorillonites (nMt) are applied in cement nanohybrids: an organomodified nMt dispersion, nC2; an inorganic nMt dispersion, nC3; and an organomodified powder, nC4. nC4 is fully characterized in this paper (X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy/X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy and thermal gravimetric analysis/differential thermogravimetry. Consecutively a ternary non pozzolanic combination of fiber–cement nanohybrids (60% Portland cement (PC) and 40% limestone (LS)) was investigated in terms of flexural strength, thermal properties, density, porosity, and water impermeability. Flexural strength was improved after day 28, particularly with the addition of the inorganic nMt dispersion. There was no change in density or enhancement in pozzolanic reactions for the powder nMt. Mercury intrusion porosimetry showed that the pore related parameters were increased. This can be attributed to mixing effects and the presence of fibers. Water impermeability tests yielded ambiguous results. Clearly, novel manufacturing processes of cement nanohybrids must be developed to eliminate mixing issues recorded in this research.

Samanea Saman

Abstract Samanea saman (SS) flower particulates were filled in Polylactic acid (PLA) composites were fabricated with different 0, 10, and 20 wt. % through the injection molding process. The elemental composition and morphology of SS PLA composites were studied through FESEM and Energy Dispersive X-ray analysis. Thermal stability of the SS PLA composites specimens was carried out through Thermo Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). Crystal orientations studied through X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) showed the presence of the orthorhombic SS particulates. The properties of the composites were investigated such as tensile strength, compressive strength, flexural strength, and Shore D Hardness. It was found that 20 wt. % of SS filled PLA composites has a superior tensile strength of 43.76 MPa, the compression strength of 37.94 MPa, the flexural strength of 72.47 MPa, and Shore D Hardness of 80.1 SHN than pure PLA. SS particulates-filled PLA composites would be used for low-strength applications.

A new interesting class of linear unsaturated polycarbonates based on 3,5-bis(p-hydroxybenzylidene)-isopropylpiperidinone (T), 3,5-divanillylidene isopropylpiperidinone (IT), or 3,5-bis(m-hydroxybenzylidene)-isopropylpiperidinone (III) have been synthesized. An interfacial phosgenation technique carried out at ambient temperature was used for the synthesis of the polycarbonates. The resulting polycarbonates were characterized by elemental analyses, infrared spectroscopy, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectral analysis, solubility and viscometry. The thermal behaviour of the synthesized polymers was evaluated by thermal gravimetric analysis and correlated with their structures. The crystallinity of all polymers was examined by x-ray diffraction analysis.

Abstract Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are developing as a powerful platform for the delivery and controlled release of drugs. In this study, we reported a novel magnetic framework including MgFe2O4@MIL-53(Al) for the delivery of tetracycline (TC) antibiotic. The obtained results of this research showed that 88% of the TC was loaded on the MgFe2O4@MIL-53(Al). The drug release study was performed in pH: 7.4 and pH: 5.0 which showed 75% and 83% release within 3 days. Moreover, antibacterial activities tests based on well agar diffusion were performed against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria which exhibited satisfactory antibacterial properties of TC-loaded MgFe2O4@MIL-53(Al). Moreover, the prepared structures including MgFe2O4@MIL-53(Al) and MgFe2O4@MIL-53(Al)/TC were identified using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA).

The present work was performed in São Fidélis/BR, technologically characterizing four types of soil. Aiming to use them in artistic ceramic, some of their properties were determined, such as the analysis of color after burn. In order to do so, essays regarding their granulometry (sifting and sedimentation), specific gravity, chemical analysis of xray fluorescence, mineralogical identification through x-ray diffraction (DRX), differential thermal analysis (ATD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TG) and scanning electron microscopy (MEV) were carried out in the Laboratories of Universidade Estadual do Norte Fluminense (UENF).The soils were analyzed before drying at 110°C and after burn under temperatures of 750°C and 1,050°C. The analyses of results returned their physical, chemical and mineralogical compositions. Many variations of color could be observed after burn.

Protein-montmorillonite composites were prepared by direct and stepwise intercalation of lysozyme(LYZ) into gallery of montmorillonite(MMT), and characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Thermal Gravimetric Analysis(TGA) and Atomic Force Microscopy(AFM). The direct intercalation experiment showed that with the increase of LYZ/MMT weight ratio from 1:1 to 4:1, the interlayer space of MMT increased from 4.2nm to 6.3nm, and the adsorption amount of lysozyme onto MMT increased from 1.05mg/mg to 1.84mg/mg. While in stepwise intercalation process, the adsorption of LYZ was obviously lower than that in direct intercalation experiment, indicating that the exchange reaction between lysozyme and POP-D2000 was incomplete in the stepwise intercalation reaction.

Three types of polyacene quinone radical (PAQR) polymers were synthesized by the step-growth polymerization of naphthalene, anthracene, or anthraquinone reacting with pyromellitic dianhydride via solution polymerization under a temperature gradient. Zinc chloride was used as the catalyst, and nitrobenzene was the solvent. The different structures of PAQR polymers were analyzed by infrared, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. The thermal properties of PAQR polymers were described by thermal gravimetric analysis, and the electrical performances were investigated by a precision LCR meter and a digital high insulation meter.

Abstract In this research, bio-based polyamide (bio-PA) was synthesized from dimethyl furan-2,5-dicarboxylate and 1,3-cyclohexanedimethanamine by melt polymerization. The properties of bio-PA were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), respectively. The results show that this bio-PA presents high glass transition temperature (Tg) from 150°C to 180°C and poor crystallization due to the asymmetric rigid structure of cyclohexane and furan. Its molecular weight is low, ascribing to the large steric hindrance from cyclohexane and furan, and the side reaction of N-methylation and decarboxylation. Besides, the results of solubility reveal that this bio-PA can be dissolved in DMSO, DMF and DMAC.

AbstractNano-eggshell/Ti(IV) as a novel naturally based catalyst was prepared, characterized and applied for the synthesis of dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole derivatives. The characterization of nano-eggshell/Ti(IV) was performed using Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, X-ray Diffraction, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy, Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy, and Thermo Gravimetric Analysis. Dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles were synthesized in the presence of nano-eggshell/Ti(IV) via a four component reaction of aldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate, malononitrile and hydrazine hydrate at room temperature under solvent free conditions. The principal affairs of this procedure are mild condition, short reaction times, easy work-up, high yields, reusability of the catalyst and the absence of toxic organic solvents.
