Synthesis and screening of heterogeneous multimetallic nanoparticle catalysts for mono-, poly- and heteroaromatic hydrogenation activity under mild conditions
DownloadFall 2011
Nanoparticle catalysts have shown to be advantageous over traditional catalysts for many reasons and active for a wide variety of reactions. This thesis describes an approach for the synthesis and screening of heterogeneous multimetallic nanoparticle catalysts for aromatic hydrogenation activity...

Monodisperse Pd nanocubes of 20 nm rib length and Pd nanospheres of 3 nm diameter deposited on corundum were used as efficient tool to reveal structure sensitivity of three-phase hydrogenations of unsaturated alcohols. For an olefin alcohol hydrogenation in the kinetic regime, surface (100) atoms...

Sustained Drug Release And Antibacterial Activity Of Ampicillin incorporated Poly (methyl methacrylate)-Nylon6 Core/Shell Nanofibers
DownloadFall 2012
A drug delivery system was designed based on the encapsulation of Ampicillin sodium salt in Poly (methyl methacrylate)(PMMA)-Nylon6 core/shell nanofibers and the release characteristics and antibacterial activity of the system were investigated. It was revealed that the system is capable of...
