Abstract

Various experimental conditions were applied to extract titanium oxide from the waste of polymetallic ore. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirms that the waste of polymetallic ore contains including various minerals such as almandine (Fe,Mg,Ca)3Al2Si3O12, brownmillerite (FeAlO3(CaO)2), quartz (SiO2), magnetite (Fe3O4). Using H2SO4 acid with a concentration of 93% in the S/L mass ratio of 1:1.5 at 140 °C is suggested as an optimum reaction condition. Its hydrolysis subsequently leads to the formation of the titanyl sulfate (TiOSO4), and relatively pure titanium oxide is obtained through precipitation and calcination at 600 °C. The observed band gap value of 3.2 eV for the obtained TiO2 corresponds to the typical band gap value of anatase-type TiO2. We calculated the crystallite size of extracted anatase-type titanium oxide according to the Debye-Scherrer equation it was determined to be 96.35 nm. Fully reflecting X-ray fluorescence (XRF) determined that the purity of extracted TiO2 is 93.18%. This report presents a newly developed process that enables the production of relatively high-purity TiO2 (93.18%) from the waste of polymetallic ore (TiO2 5.39%) by a simple sulfurization process.

Abstract

This study' purposes are to synthesize molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) with hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) using p-xylene under ultraviolet curing at 405 nm for the recognition of hydroquinone (HQ) in aqueous medium. The template was extracted from the polymer with a mixture of methanol and acetic acid (9:1) by volume (v/v). The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum of MIP (after wash) showed the absence of peak at the range of 840–860 cm−1, which represented the stretching outside the aromatic plane C–H at the para position (p-xylene). Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) micrograph showed that the MIP had cavities compared to non-imprinted polymer (NIP). The MIP (MIP-Pxy) with ratio (monomer:crosslinker) 0.25 and 1.00% template gave the highest uptake of hydroquinone (HQ) in aqueous solution, which implied more specific recognition (highest KD value). The rebinding of HQ onto MIP-Pxy was best described by both isotherm (Langmuir and Freundlich) and kinetic model (pseudo-first and -second). The MIP was successfully synthesized using p-xylene, able to recognize HQ and was very selective to p-CP. Implication of the study, the synthesized MIP can be used for recognition and sensing materials for HQ and any similar molecules.

Abstract

Nickel (Ni) and nitrogen (N) as codopants had been introduced into ZrO2-TiO2 composite photocatalyst. The objectives of this study are to investigate the codoping effect of Ni and N, as well as the calcination temperature towards the ability to photodegrade methylene blue (MB) under the irradiation of visible light. Different amounts of Ni dopant (wNi/wTi = 2–10%) along with a fixed amount of N dopant (wN/wTi = 10%) were applied to the ZrO2-TiO2 composite through the sol-gel method. Crystallization of the composite was done by calcination at 500, 700, and 900 °C. Characterization of the composite was done using Fourier-transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), specular reflectance UV-visible spectrophotometer (SR-UV) and scanning electron microscopy equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (SEM-EDX). The photocatalytic activity of the composite was evaluated by photodegradation of 4 mg L−1 MB solution under visible light irradiation at various reaction times. The lowest band gap was achieved until 2.79 eV by the composite with 6% Ni and 10% N calcined at 900 °C. The highest MB degradation percentage up to 61% was obtained by the composite with 6% Ni and 10% N calcined at 500 °C (kobs = 7.8 × 10−3 min−1).

Abstract

The work describes the synthesis and spectral investigation of cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), and zinc(II) complexes with (E)-4-((4-nitrobenzylidene)amino)-5-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (L). The new ligand was synthesized through three steps, first the preparation of 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenylhydrazide salt, the ring closure of potassium hydrazide salt with excess of hydrazine hydrate followed by condensation of the derivative 4-amino-5-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol with 4-nitrobenzaldehyde in glacial acetic acid. The physical and spectroscopic properties of the ligand and its complexes were well investigated and theoretically studied. The experimental results were compatible with their expected compositions. Based on the spectral data, metal complexes with coordination numbers 6 and 4 were proposed, with L functioning as a bidentate ligand. The metal complexes displayed an octahedral geometry around bivalent cobalt, nickel, and zinc tetrahedral environment. Density functional theory calculations (DFT) were conducted to investigate the geometry optimization of the synthesized ligand L and its Co(II) complex and to confirm the structure of the ligand by comparing its experimental vibrational and NMR spectra with the corresponding DFT calculated spectra. The DFT results revealed the participation of nitrogen and sulfur atoms of imine and thione groups in coordination with the metal ions beside the good agreement with the experimental data of elemental analyses and spectroscopic measurements.

Abstract

This study aims to detect the presence of lard in several halal animal fats (beef, chicken, and goat fat) based on their infrared fingerprint and volatile compound profile (volatilomics). A mixture of fat samples obtained from halal animals and lard at different concentrations (0, 20, 40, 60, and 80%, v/v) were subjected to attenuated total reflection-Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and solid phase microextraction coupled to gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GC/MS) analysis, respectively. The data was processed using orthogonal projection to the least square–discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). The results showed that ATR-FTIR could only identify the presence of lard in chicken fat up to the lowest concentration used in this study (10%) but failed in other fat samples. SPME-GC/MS detected the presence of lard in all animal fats up to the lowest concentration added (10%). The results of this study revealed that the volatilomics technique had more potential to be developed as a basis for the rapid detection of halal and non-halal animal fat than the infrared fingerprint. This study also emphasized that markers of non-halal animal fats can be different when the same fats are added to different food products.

Abstract

The [Co(4-ampy)4(NCS)]2·CO2 complex compound was successfully synthesized using the reflux method from the reaction between CoCl2·6H2O, 4-aminopyridine, and KSCN in methanol solvent for 6 h at 64 °C. The synthesized compound is a dark purple cube-shaped crystal with a melting point of 209 °C. FTIR test showed the presence of isothiocyanate anion at C=N stretching vibration wavenumber 1633 cm−1, C–N vibration on amine group belonging to 4-aminopyridine ligand at 1217 cm−1, and C=N vibration of pyridine aromatic group at 1334 cm−1. Single crystal X-ray diffraction data refinement results show the complex compound has octahedral geometry in a cubic lattice with space group Pn̄3n with lattice parameters a = b = c = 16.426(3) Å and α = β = γ = 90°. According to the crystal data, there was one molecule of CO2 in the crystal packing of the complex. Hirshfeld surface analysis showed the major interaction contributions from C⋯H/H⋯C, H⋯H, S⋯H/H⋯S, and O⋯H/H⋯O. The antibacterial activity test results showed that the activity of the synthesized complex was more active against Staphylococcus aureus but less effective against Escherichia coli.

Abstract

The potential utilization of industrial waste, specifically polyethylene wax, to enhance the efficiency of alkyl acrylate polymers as viscosity index improver (VII) additives in lubricating compositions has been investigated. Four terpolymers (w1, w2, w3, and w4) were synthesized via free radical polymerization, incorporating hexyl acrylate, 1-tetradecene, and industrial waste-sourced polyethylene wax at varying molar ratios. These terpolymers were characterized through gel permeation chromatography (GPC) for molecular weight determination, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectroscopy for chemical structure analysis, and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) for thermal stability assessment. The study evaluated the efficiency of these terpolymers as viscosity index improvers (VII) in combination with free additives Iraqi lubricating oil (base oil 60). Our results demonstrate the feasibility of significantly enhancing the efficiency of viscosity improvers through the utilization of industrial waste, with improvements proportional to terpolymer concentration. The terpolymer w3, characterized by a balanced molar ratio of 1:1:1, exhibiting the highest degree of efficacy, which gave VI of 206 at 5 wt.% concentration compared with free additive lubricating oil, which gives VI of 98. This study offers promising insights into the sustainable use of industrial waste to improve lubricating compositions.

Abstract

In this study, magnetic natural zeolite (ZTM) was prepared using the coprecipitation method and dithizone was then immobilized on its surface in less toxic medium of alkaline to yield dithizone-immobilized magnetic zeolite (ZTM-Dtz). The synthesized ZTM-Dtz was characterized by FTIR and XRD, indicating that dithizone was successfully immobilized on the surface of ZTM. Vibrating sample magnetometer measurements showed superparamagnetic properties of either ZTM or ZTM-Dtz with magnetization values of 7.35 and 11.49 emu g−1, respectively. The adsorption kinetics of Pb(II) on both adsorbents followed a pseudo-second-order and their adsorption isotherms were properly described by the Langmuir model. The adsorption capacity of ZTM and ZTM-Dtz were 6.94 and 38.46 mg g−1, respectively, suggesting that dithizone immobilization enhanced the adsorbent capacity more than 5 times. The interaction mechanism between Pb(II) metal ion and ZTM was dominated by ion exchange, whereas that of ZTM-Dtz was mostly hydrogen bonds and complexation. The synthesized material is promising to be developed for the adsorption of heavy metal ions such as Pb(II) because it provides a high adsorption capacity and the adsorbents can be easily separated magnetically after application.

Abstract

In the present study, the concentrations of nine heavy metals (Cr, Cd, Cu, Mn, Pb, Co, Fe, Ni, and Zn) in roadside soils were measured by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS). Roadside soils were collected during the summer semester from Mafraq, Jordan (N = 97). Four sampling sites were selected for this study, including commercial area, industrial area, residential area, and Irbid-Mafraq highway. The average metal concentrations (±SD) in the collected soils were 16840 (± 9479), 40 (± 40), 99 (± 44), 478 (± 155), 60 (± 62), 2 (± 1), 73 (± 23), 14 (± 5), and 45 (± 13) mg/kg for Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn, Pb, Cd, Cr, Co, and Ni, respectively. The results of this study revealed that the highest Mn, Cu, Co, Ni, Zn, Fe, and Pb concentrations were found in the industrial area, and the highest Cd concentration was found at the Irbid-Mafraq highway. The values of the enrichment factors for Zn, Cr, Cd, and Ni in the collected roadside soils were found to be higher than 10, confirming the presence of anthropogenic pollution in the studied areas. The results of this study were also compared with other studies performed in different countries in the world.

Abstract

Nutmeg (Myristica fragrans Houtt) is a widely known spice plant, which has been reported to offer several benefits. Therefore, this study aims to develop and analyze nanoemulsions of nutmeg leaves and fruit essential oil, as well as determine their toxicity and cytotoxicity. Nanoemulsions were formulated with varying concentrations of essential oil, including 0, 1, 2, 4, and 6%. Characterization included organoleptic assessment, pH measurement, type examination, viscosity testing, transmittance analysis, particle size distribution measurement, centrifugation, and freeze-thaw cycle test. Toxicity testing results using the brine shrimp lethality test (BSLT) showed that nanoemulsions were toxic except NF F4 with high toxicity. Cytotoxicity testing on T47D breast cancer cells showed moderate activity for NF F4 nanoemulsions (IC50: 34.363 ppm), while NL nanoemulsions were deemed inactive (IC50: 33576.430 ppm). In addition, the organoleptic characteristics of all nanoemulsions were stable, and most parameters met the desired standards. Based on the results, further studies exploring nanoemulsions with natural products must be carried out to determine their advantages, specifically in the development of sciences.
