This review summarises the major developments of macroporous bioceramics used mainly for repairing bone defects. Porous have been receiving attention ever since their larger surface area was reported to be beneficial formation more rigid bonds with host tissues. The study porous is important overcome less favourable formed between dense and tissues, especially in healing Macroporous bioceramics, which studied extensively, include hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphate, alumina, zirconia. pore...
Purpose The purpose of this study is to synthesize a semiconductor photocatalyst which responds both UV light and visible in removal organic dyes. Design/methodology/approach ZnO nanoparticles were pre-synthesised via sol-gel method using zinc nitrate tetrahydrate methanamine at 90°C for 20 h. Subsequently, the as-synthesised filtered, washed dried. To ZnO-MnO 2 core shell nanocomposites (CSNs), 2:3 M ratio KMnO 4 MnSO solution was stirred an hour. Next, added into solution. heated 160°C 3 h...
Development of visible light response semiconductor photocatalysts in degradation organic compounds (pollutants) is one the current research focuses due to severe environmental pollution from various industrial and agricultural pollutants water bodies. In this work, β-MnO2 particles were successfully prepared by sol-gel method with potassium permanganate manganese (II) sulphate as precursors. The transmission electron microscope/selected area diffraction analysis indicates that polycrystals...
Nanoporous bioceramic recently has gained attention as a drug storage and release host in the therapeutic application. Mesoporous carbonated hydroxyapatite (MCHA) is nanoporous with pore sized ranged between 2-50 nm. In order to use delivery application, this material should demonstrate acceptable cytotoxic activity osteoinductive response. Therefore, study aimed evaluate effect of mesoporous on viability alkaline phosphatase (ALP) MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts cell line. These parameters represent...
The oxide semiconductor with different band gap energy i.e. manganese dioxide (MnO 2 ) (E g : 1.30eV) and zinc (ZnO) 3.37 eV) nanoparticles were used to degrade RhodamineB (RhB) under irradiation of UV light (254 nm).The MnO synthesized by hydrothermal method (160 °C, 4 h) using analytical grade sulfate hydrate potassium permanganate (VII) as precursors. XRD analysis reveals that the d-MnO .The photocatalytic study shows degradation RhB solution ZnO (rate constant: 0.02749 min -1 was...
Oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) is an abundant agricultural waste available in Malaysia. More than two million tonnes (dry weight) of extracted oil fiber are estimated to be generated annually. Usually the EFB used as boiler fuel produce steam mills. can prepare activated carbon (ACF) by carbonization and activation. Conversion ACF will reduce amount produced annually it represents a potential source adsorbents for adsorption. The has many advantages compared conventional found powder or...
