Chelating resins based on biopolymers, specifically cellulose, offers a green analytical method for determination of metal ions at trace levels present in various samples. It offers a fast, accurate and simple method for separation and pre-concentration of metal ions at low concentrations, prior to their determination by instrumental method. Cellulose based chelating resin (CELL-GLY) has been synthesised by immobilising glycine on it. CELL-GLY was used for the determination of trace amounts of Cu2+ and Ni2+ from aqueous solutions before their determination by FAAS. The preparation of CELL-GLY involves simple steps, based on natural and easily available biopolymer cellulose, which makes its use as chelating resin is a green method. The Cu2+ and Ni2+ can be quantitatively recovered from the CELL-GLY in the pH range 4.8–6.9 and 6.9-7.8 respectively with a recovery of more than 95% for each of these metal ions. Recovery of these metal ions using CELL-GLY was quantitative up to 35 °C. The detection limits for copper and nickel by FAAS were 1.20 ppb and 1.40 ppb, respectively. The method was successfully employed for the determination of trace amounts of Cu2+ and Ni2+ in various samples. 相似文献

Modification of [VO(OPri)3] with oximes in different molar ratios, yielded new class of vanadia precursors, [VO{OPri}3?n{L}n] {where, n = 1–3 and LH = C9H16C=NOH (1–3) and (CH3)2C=NOH (4–6)}.All the products are yellow in colour. (1) and (2) are liquid/viscous liquid, while others are solids. Molecular weight measurements of all these derivatives and the ESI-mass spectral studies of (1), (2), (3) and (5) indicate their monomeric nature. 1H and 13C{1H} NMR spectra suggest that the oximato moieties are monodentate in solution which was further confirmed by the 51V NMR signals, appeared in the region expected for tetra-coordinated oxo-vanadium atoms. On ageing, a disproportionation reaction occurs in (1) and some crystals appeared. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses of the crystals obtained from (1) as well as from (3) were found to be the same and indicate the presence of side-on {dihapto η2-(N, O)} binding modes of the oximato ligands, leading to the formation of seven coordination environment around the vanadium atom. Thermogravimetric curve of (1) exhibits multi-step decomposition with the formation of V2O5 as the final product at ~850 °C. Sol–gel transformation of (3) yielded (a) VO2 sintered at 300 °C and (b) V2O5 at 600 °C. Similarly, sol–gel transformations of (1) and (2) yielded V2O5 (c) and (d) at 600 °C, respectively. Formation of monoclinic phase in (a) and orthorhombic phase in (b), (c) and (d) were confirmed by powder XRD patterns. 相似文献
Some oxime modified complexes of the type [Zr{OPri}4?n{L}n] {where, n = 1–4 and LH=(CH3)2C=NOH (1–4) and C9H16C=NOH (5–8)} have been synthesized by the reaction of [Zr(OPri)4·PriOH] with oximes, in anhydrous refluxing benzene. These synthesized complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight measurements, ESI-mass, FT-IR and NMR (1H and 13C{1H}) spectral studies. The ESI-mass spectral studies indicate dimeric nature for [Zr{OPri}2{ONC(CH3)2}2] (2), [Zr{OPri}3{ONC10H16}] (5) and [Zr{OPri}{ONC10H16}3] (7) and monomeric nature for [Zr{ONC10H16}4] (8). Oximato ligands appear to bind the zirconium in side on manner in all the complexes. Thermogravimetric curves of (2) and (8) exhibit multi-step decomposition with the formation of ZrO2, under nitrogen atmosphere. Sol–gel transformations of precursors (5), (6), (7) and (8) in organic medium, yielded nano-sized tetragonal phase of zirconia samples (a), (b), (c) and (d), respectively, on sintering at ~600 °C. All these samples were characterized by Powder XRD patterns and EDX analyses. Surface morphologies of these samples were investigated by SEM images. 相似文献
The motivation of this article is to numerically investigate the orbital dynamics of the planar post-Newtonian circular restricted problem of three bodies. By numerically integrating several large sets of initial conditions of orbits we obtain the basins of escape. Additionally, we determine the influence of the transition parameter on the orbital structure of the system, as well as on the families of simple symmetric periodic orbits. The networks and the stability of the symmetric periodic orbits are revealed, while the corresponding critical periodic solutions are also identified. The parametric evolution of the horizontal and the vertical stability of the periodic orbits are also monitored, as a function of the transition parameter.
Terbium Aluminum Garnet (TAG) is an important optically active material and is one of the best materials known for the fabrication
of optical isolators. TAG has a large Verdet constant and has good transmission in the region of 350–1500 nm of the electromagnetic
spectrum. It is also known that TAG melts incongruently at 1840°C. This makes efficient synthesis of TAG important and challenging
and forms the motivation of the present work to develop techniques for the synthesis of TAG at lower temperatures. In the
present work we report the synthesis of TAG using sol-gel techniques following the citrate-nitrate route. The prepared sample
is sintered at various temperatures in presence of air and characterized using X-ray diffraction, FT-IR spectroscopy, energy
dispersive X-ray Analysis and the morphology is observed using the scanning electron microscopy. 相似文献
Methanol, acetone and diethyl ether extracts of Alpinia galanga have been evaluated against pathogens viz. Bacillus subtilis MTCC 2391, Enterobacter aerogene, Enterobacter cloacae, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli MTCC 1563, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa MTCC 6642, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus epidermis using Agar well diffusion method. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of
all the extracts were determined using the macrodilution method. Methanol extracts have shown excellent activity towards all
the pathogens with MIC and MBC values ranging from 0.04–1.28 mg/ml and 0.08–2.56 mg/ml, respectively. The GC–MS analysis of
methanol extracts have yielded compounds like 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (59.9%), benzyl alcohol (57.6%), 1,8 cineole (15.65%),
methylcinnamate (9.4%), 3-phenyl-2-butanone (8.5%) and 1,2 benzenedicarboxylic acid (8.9%), which could be responsible for
its broad spectrum activity. So, A. galanga can be quite resourceful for the development of new generation drugs. 相似文献
We present an analytical and experimental study of a novel confocal optical pulse stretcher (COPS). The simple and passive pulse stretcher consists of two concave mirrors and a scraper beam-splitter and its optical configuration ensures a perfect spatial overlapping of laser pulses at the beam-splitter. The pulse stretcher is compact and suitable for laser pulses of large divergences. The confocal optical pulse stretcher is demonstrated on a pulsed copper vapour laser to convert a 40 ns (1/e2 % points) pulse into a 55 ns with reduction of peak power by a factor of 1.375 without loss of pulse energy. 相似文献
The behaviour of a weakly non-linear third order system under a weak forcing function is considered. By the method of multiple time scales, it is found that the amplitude of the forced oscillation increases with the amplitude of the forcing function until a critical value is reached. Beyond this value, stable oscillations exist whose amplitude decreases with the amplitude of the forcing function but which are superimposed on a constant of increasing magnitude. 相似文献
