Complex metal hydride is a promising hydrogen storage material for automobile applications due to its reversible storage capacity. The presence of transition metal halide is found to improve significantly the kinetics of ...

A new fluorescent receptor 1,1′-(4-methylbenzene-1,3-diyl)bis[3-(2-sulfanylphenyl)urea] (1) has been designed and synthesized. The receptor showed excellent selectivity for Fe3+ in DMSO/H2O (8:2, v/v) solvent system over ...

A new non-natural receptor 2,2′-[benzene-1,2-diylbis(iminomethanediyl)]diphenol (4) was synthesized, and it is fluorogenic behaviour toward various metal ions were investigated. Receptor 4 exhibited pronounced fluorescence ...

This study investigates the effect of the distribution of nanoparticles delivered to a skin tumour for the thermal ablation conditions attained during thermal therapy. Ultimate aim is to define a distribution of nanoparticles ...

Imidazole and imine-linked dipodal receptors were decorated on the surface of ZnO nanoparticles. Cation binding assays of these chemosensors showed that receptors 5 and 6 had high selectivity for Al(III) and Zn(II) ions, ...

A dipodal rhodamine-based mercury complex have been designed and synthesized, for the selective detection of 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA). To avoid the poor solubility of rhodamine-based ligand in pure water, the Hg2+ ...

In this study, ionic liquids coated nanocrystalline zeolite based inorganic-organic hybrid materials were synthesized. Nanocrystalline ZSM-5 zeolite was prepared under hydrothermal condition in the presence of propyltrie ...

This paper presents the analytical solution of a rectangular fin under the simultaneous heat and mass transfer across the fin surface and the fin tip, and estimates the unknown thermal and geometrical configurations of the ...

Structural changes in a bulk metallic glass subjected to high-strain plastic deformation was investigated. A zirconium-based bulk metallic glass was friction stir processed at different tool rotational speeds. The alloy ...

A colorimetric and fluorescent ‘on–off’ chemosensor 1 was developed for the selective and sensitive detection of Cu2+ over the other examined metal ions. Upon addition of Cu2+, sensor 1 exhibits moderate enhancement in the ...
