A novel magnetic SO 4/Fe-Al-TiO 2 solid acid catalyst was synthesized for biodiesel
production via the (trans) esterification of waste cooking oil (WCO). The nanocomposite …

There is a significant interest to develop sensing devices that detect water toxins, especially
heavy metal ions. Although there have already been numerical reports on detecting toxic …

The structure and spinnability of sol are essential for obtaining high-performance continuous
alumina-based fibres. Herein, the surface electrostatic potential analysis and conventional …

Radiative properties are critical to quantify radiative energy fluxes between surfaces and in
participating media. However, there is limited experimental data on temperature-dependent …

In the present study, a comprehensive investigation has been carried out on the
meticulously designed surfactant-free glycerol-activated sol–gel derived mesoporous γ …

Here, nanocrystalline alumina powder is prepared by the glycine-nitrate combustion
method, maintaining stoichiometric fuel to oxidizer ratio and two different pH conditions. The …

Damage to the environment as a consequence of exploration, production, imminent
depletion, use of fossil fuels and concerns over climate change (increasing lifecycle …

One novel method for disinfecting water is the use of silver nanoparticles. The aim of this
work was to prepare a granular antibacterial composite based on chitosan boehmite …

In-depth insight into the structure of oligomers in sols plays an important role in determining
the structure and properties of the final materials, such as aluminium borosilicate fibers …

Because calcined alpha alumina (α-Al2O3) inherits the morphology characteristic of milled
precursors, it is expected that the α-Al2O3 morphology could be improved by controlling the …
