Ambient Scalable Synthesis Of Surfactant-Free Thermoelectric Cuagse Nanoparticles With Reversible Metallic-N-P Conductivity Transition, Chao Han, Qiao Sun, Zhenxiang Cheng, Jianli Wang, Zhen Li, Gao Qing (Max) Lu, S X. Dou
Australian Institute for Innovative Materials - Papers
Surfactant-free CuAgSe nanoparticles were successfully synthesized on a large scale within a short reaction time via a simple environmentally friendly aqueous approach under room temperature. The nanopowders obtained were consolidated into pellets for investigation of their thermoelectric properties between 3 and 623 K. The pellets show strong metallic characteristics below 60 K and turn into an n-type semiconductor with increasing temperature, accompanied by changes in the crystal structure (i.e., from the pure tetragonal phase into a mixture of tetragonal and orthorhombic phases), the electrical conductivity, the Seebeck coefficient, and the thermal conductivity, which leads to a figure of merit (ZT) …

The significance of developing implantable, biocompatible, miniature power sources operated in a low current range has become manifest in recent years to meet the demands of the fast-growing market for biomedical microdevices. In this work, we focus on developing high-performance cathode material for biocompatible zinc/polymer batteries utilizing biofluids as electrolyte. Conductive polymers and graphene are generally considered to be biocompatible and suitable for bioengineering applications. To harness the high electrical conductivity of graphene and the redox capability of polypyrrole (PPy), a polypyrrole fiber/graphene composite has been synthesized via a simple one-step route. This composite is highly conductive (141 S cm …

Yttrium silicates (Y-Si-O oxides), including Y2Si2O7, Y2SiO5, and Y4·67(SiO4)3O apatite, have attracted wide attentions from material scientists and engineers, because of their extensive polymorphisms and important roles as grain boundary phases in improving the high-temperature mechanical/thermal properties of Si3N4 and SiC ceramics. Recent interest in these materials has been renewed by their potential applications as high-temperature structural ceramics, oxidation protective coatings, and environmental barrier coatings (EBCs). The salient properties of Y-Si-O oxides are strongly related to their unique chemical bonds and …

Modified Seed Growth Of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles In Benzyl Alcohol: Magnetic Nanoparticles For Radio Frequency Hyperthermia Treatment Of Cancer, Stanley E. Gilliland Iii
Theses and Dissertations
Iron oxide nanoparticles have received sustained interest for biomedical applications as synthetic approaches are continually developed for precise control of nanoparticle properties. This thesis presents an investigation of parameters in the benzyl alcohol synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles. A modified seed growth method was designed for obtaining optimal nanoparticle properties for magnetic fluid hyperthermia. With a one or two addition process, iron oxide nanoparticles were produced with crystallite sizes ranging from 5-20 nm using only benzyl alcohol and iron precursor. The effects of reaction environment, temperature, concentration, and modified seed growth parameters were investigated to obtain precise control over properties …

A small library of new azomethine derivatives of 3-aryl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones was synthesized. The key intermediates 2-thioxo-quinazolinones (3a--e), obtained in 2 steps from the corresponding anilines, were treated with methyl chloroacetate to afford S-substituted esters (4a,d), which were then converted into corresponding acetohydrazides (5a,d). Further, acetohydrazide (5d) was converted to the azomethines derivatives (6a--k) by reacting with a number of suitably substituted benzaldehydes. FTIR, ^1H NMR, ^{13}C NMR, GC-MS, and elemental analyses were used to confirm the assigned structures of the synthesized compounds. Further, compounds 3a, 5, and 6j were also confirmed by X-ray diffraction data.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
The synthesis of tetraaminopropylamid substituted phthalocyanines was targeted to prepare enhanced soluble phthalocyanines in common solvents from hydrophobic to hydrophilic that bore nonionic groups on their periphery. Metal-free (H_2Pc) and metallophthalocyanines (Zn(II) (ZnPc), Cu(II) (CuPc) and Co(II) (CoPc)) were prepared and characterized by UV-Vis, FT-IR, and mass spectroscopies. The ^1H NMR spectra were recorded for the diamagnetic phthalocyanine species H_2Pc and ZnPc. The phthalocyanines showed sufficient solubility in common organic solvents such as dimethyl sulfoxide, tetrahydrofuran, and ethanol. However, methanol was not a good solvent for CuPc and H_2Pc. Solubility and aggregation studies of H_2Pc and ZnPc were performed in …

Articles
This article describes the development and implementation of an open-access organic chemistry question bank for online tutorials and assessments at University College Cork and Technological University Dublin. SOCOT (structure-based organic chemistry online tutorials) may be used to supplement traditional small-group tutorials, thereby allowing students to develop essential problem-solving skills in organic chemistry. This online approach may be used for both formative and summative assessment. Students complete one problem set weekly or fortnightly, which consists of a number of questions of varying difficulty. A wide range of question types is possible; for example, prediction of reaction products, identification of reaction intermediates …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
A series of new poly(amic acid) (PAA) surface-modified cerium oxide (CeO_2) nanocomposites were prepared by sonochemical-assisted method. In the first step, treatment of the surface of CeO_2 nanoparticles with hexadecyltrimethoxysilane as a surface modifier was achieved. In the second step, the partially surface-treated nanoparticles were incorporated into PAA by different weight from 4% to 12%. PAA was synthesized by polycondensation reaction of benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride and 3,5-diamino-N-(4-hydroxyphenyl) benzamide in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone. The chemical structure of PAA was confirmed by ^1H NMR and FTIR spectroscopy. The polymer had an inherent viscosity of 0.38 dL/g. Three PAA/CeO_2 nanocomposite formulations were prepared from the …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Two meso-dichlorophenyl substituted metallocorroles were synthesized and characterized as to their electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical properties in dichloromethane, benzonitrile, and pyridine containing 0.1 M tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate (TBAP) as supporting electrolyte. The examined compounds are represented as (Cl_2Ph)_3CorFe^{IV}Cl and (Cl_2Ph)_3CorMn^{IV}Cl where (Cl_2Ph)_3Cor is the trianion of 5,10,15-tri(2,4-dichlorophenyl)corrole. Each metallocorrole was examined as to its catalytic activity for the electoreduction of dioxygen when coated on an edge-plane pyrolytic graphite electrode in 1.0 M HClO_4. Cyclic voltammetry combined with linear sweep voltammetry at a rotating disk electrode (RDE) and a rotating ring disk electrode (RRDE) was utilized to evaluate the catalytic activity for the …

Single-case interventions allow for the repeated measurement of a case or participant across multiple time points, to assess the treatment¡͞s effect on one specific case or participant. The basic interrupted time series design includes two phases: baseline and treatment. Raudenbush and Byrk (2002) demonstrated that a meta-analysis of large group designs can be seen as a special case of multi-level analysis with participants (level-one) nested within studies (level-two). Raw data from a set of single case design studies have a similar structure. Van den Noortgate and Onghena (2003) illustrated the use of a two-level model to analyze data in primary …
