This work includes a synthesis of three types the activated carbon (AC) from different positions same Iraqi Khestawy date palm. These are palm fronds (AC1), seeds (AC2), and fiber (AC3). AC were synthesized by physiochemical activation method using activator which was H 3 PO 4 . materials investigated techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The adsorption activity samples following removal both Bismarck brown G (BBG) reactive...

A novel hydroxypropyl cellulose (gHPC) hydrogel with graded porosity has been fabricated, in which pore size, shape, and mechanical properties vary across the material. The was achieved by cross-linking different parts of at temperatures below above 42 °C, found to be temperature turbidity onset (lower critical solution temperature, LCST) for HPC divinylsulfone cross-linker mixture. Scanning electron microscopy imaging revealed a decreasing size along cross-section from top bottom layer....

The elimination of pollutants such as dyes and fungi has become a tedious process hence there is need for multifunctional materials that can be used the removal or degradation various from wastewater. Here, nickel oxide nanoparticle (NiONPs) was synthesized by co-precipitation method. In current study, composite nanoparticles using nitrogen chromium dopants to create (N/NiONPs) (Cr/N/NiONPs), respectively fungi. nanocomposites were characterized zeta potential (ZP), scanning electron...

Antimould agents are widely used in different applications, such as specialty paints, building materials, wood preservation and crop protection. However, many antimould can be toxic to the environment. This work aims evaluate application of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuONPs) surface modified with boronic acid (BA) terminal groups agents. We developed CuONPs grafted (3-glycidyloxypropyl) trimethoxysilane (GLYMO), coupled 4-hydroxyphenylboronic (4-HPBA), which provided a strong boost their...
