Sustainable fuels: Lower alcohols perspective
(Wiley, 2023)In the coming years, energy sources will play a vital role in global development. Biofuels made from sustainable sources are essential for the global economy's long-term viability and the reduction of greenhouse gas ... -
Synthesis and characterisation of a polysulfone-polyvinyl alcohol hydrogelic material
(ESG, 2016)Hydrogels are flexible materials that have found a niche in membrane science owing to their ability to absorb water without dissolving. The synthesis of polyvinyl alcohol-polysulfone hydrogel in the presence of N-hydroxy ... -
Synthesis and characterization of carbon doped TiO2 photocatalysts supported on stainless steel mesh by sol-gel method
(Korean Carbon Society, 2017)This study synthesized pure anatase carbon doped TiO2 photocatalysts supported on a stainless steel mesh using a sol-gel solution of 8% polyacrylonitrile (PAN)/dimethylformamide (DMF)/TiCl4. The influence of the pyrolysis ... -
Synthesis and electronic properties of Alkyl- and alkyloxy-cucuminoids
(Elsevier, 2013)Two series of p‐alkyl‐ and p‐alkoxy‐substituted curcuminoids were synthesized. The validity of the proposed structures was checked on the basis of their high resolution mass spectra as well as NMR, IR and electronic ... -
Synthesis and reactivities of conducting hexathienylbenzene-co-poly(3-hexylthiophene) star-branched copolymer as donor material for organic photovoltaic cell
(Frontiers Media, 2022)The hexathienylbenzene-co-poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5diyl) (HTB-co-P3HT) conducting polymer was synthesized by oxidative co-polymerization of hexathienylbenzene (HTB) and 3-hexylthiophene using iron chloride (FeCl3) as an ... -
The synthesis of 7,9-dimethoxy-3-propyl-3,4-dihydro-1H-benzo[g]isochromene1,5,10-trione: A potential monomer for the synthesis of the natural product xylindein
(Arkivoc, 2020)A novel synthesis of a 3-propyl-substituted-benzo[g]isochromene quinone, a potential monomer of the natural product xylindein, was accomplished in 9 steps (overall yield of 8.2%) from 2,4- dimethoxybenzaldehyde. Key steps ... -
Synthesis of an ordered mesoporous carbon with graphitic characteristics and its application for dye adsorption
(Springer, 2013)An ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) was prepared by a chemical vapor deposition technique using liquid petroleum gas (LPG) as the carbon source. During synthesis, LPG was effectively adsorbed in the ordered mesopores of ... -
