Abstract

The more commonly used method for making synthetic zeolite from kaolin is hydrothermal method. This research tested a sol-gel method in processing synthetic zeolit  using kaolin as the basic ingrediant. The synthetic  zeolite  derived from the sol-gel method was then characterized using X-ray Difractometer and Scanning Electron Microscope, which found resulting products zeolite-A, zeolite Y and sodalite. The adsorption ability of the synthetic zeolites was tested using Cu(II) and methylene blue.  Functionalization of the synthetic zeolites by 3-(trimetoksisilil)-1-propantiol was  done to increase adsorption capacity. Zeolite A modified by 3-(trimetoksisilil)-1-propantiol  had the greater capacity to adsorb methylene blue at 30.11 mg/g. The adsorption isotherms of all the synthetic zeolites approached the Langmuir form. The adsorption energy off all synthetic zeolites approached the chemical adsorption.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15408/jkv.v0i0.5144

Abstract

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is a major component of bones and teeth. HAp is widely used to repair, fill, extend, and reconstruct damaged bone tissue. HAp is used for bone and dental implants, so it is necessary to synthesize HAp. HAp synthesis can utilize green mussel shell waste as a calcium precursor. This research synthesized HAp from a green mussel shell using the sol-gel method. The controlled synthesis parameter was pH, and the variable being compared was the heating temperature at 900 and 1100 °C. The HAp products were characterized by an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectrophotometer, and scanning electron microscope. The results showed that HAp was formed at alkaline pH, namely at pH 11. The XRD pattern showed that Hap was formed along with type A apatite carbonate, octacalcium phosphate, α- and β-tricalcium phosphate. The crystallinity was increased by raising the temperature and prolonging the heating time. The quality of HAp will improve with increasing crystallinity, and increasing the temperature will also raise the amount of HAp formed.

Abstract

Gelatin-based bio-nanocomposite films reinforced with carbon dots were developed and characterized to evaluate their mechanical, thermal, and optical properties. The films were prepared with carbon dot concentrations of 0.0, 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0% (w/w) to examine the effect of nanofiller incorporation. Optical analysis showed enhanced ultraviolet–visible absorption at 339–344 nm and red-shifted fluorescence emission at 500–517 nm under 400 nm excitation, indicating improved light-responsive behavior. The addition of carbon dots significantly improved tensile strength, elongation at break, and Young’s modulus, demonstrating enhanced flexibility and mechanical performance. Furthermore, carbon dots reduced the water vapor transmission rate and transparency while increasing film density, indicating improved barrier properties. The film containing 0.5% carbon dots showed the most balanced performance, with a tensile strength of 27.43 ± 0.71 MPa, elongation at break of 23.17 ± 1.66%, and Young’s modulus of 0.26 ± 0.03 GPa. Structural analysis confirmed no significant changes in chemical composition and showed uniform dispersion of carbon dots. Thermal analysis indicated improved stability with a melting temperature of 167°C. These findings highlight the potential of gelatin-based bio-nanocomposite films for sustainable packaging applications.
