Abstract
The production of high-purity aluminum nanoparticles (Al-NPs) is challenging due to the highly reactive nature of Al metals. Electromagnetic levitation gas condensation (ELGC) is a promising method to produce high-purity metallic particles as it avoids the interaction between molten metal and refractory-lined, which guarantees the removal of impurities such as oxygen (O). In this research, high-purity Al-NPs were successfully fabricated via ELGC process and fully characterized. The effects of power input and gas flow rate on particle size and distribution were analyzed using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and dynamic light...

Abstract
A new heterogeneous and highly dispersive nanocatalyst in water was prepared by the immobilization of Cu2+ onto glucose on Fe3O4. The catalyst was fully characterized by FT-IR, TGA, CHN, SEM, EDX, and atomic absorption spectroscopy. The synthesized catalyst was used in the synthesis of different derivatives of 1,2,3-triazole via a one-pot three-component reaction of alkynes, alkyl halides, and sodium azide. To the best of our knowledge, this novel catalyst adheres to the principles of green chemistry. The nanocatalyst could be recycled and reused in several runs without significant loss of activity
Elemental Characterization of the Total Suspended Particulate Matter of the Industrial City of Arak with NAA and AAS and Modeling with the AERMOD Software
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Sohrabpour, Mostafa (Supervisor)
Abstract
Environmental conditions of various cities of Iran are deteriorating due to various contributing effects of increased traffic, deforestation, industrial pollution etc. Arak is an example in point. It is a city of about 440,000 inhabitants. It is located at the edge of the main central desert (Kavir) of Iran. It lacks any appreciable vegetation or wooded areas and it is the home of a number of major industries. These include aluminum smelting, petrochemical industry, refinery, power plant and various other heavy manufacturing facilities. It was suggested to perform an air sampling of the city for a whole year (2010-2011) to determine the concentration of various elements by instrumental...

Abstract
Fe3O4@SiO2-Ag catalyst was found to be highly active and selective in the N-alkylation of amines with a variety of aromatic and linear alcohols. The heterogeneous nature of the Fe3O4@SiO2-Ag catalyst allows easy recovery and regeneration by applying an external magnet for six subsequent reaction cycles. The prepared catalyst was characterized using electron microscopy techniques, X-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometry and atomic absorption spectroscopy.

Abstract
A manganese porphyrin, meso-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrinato manganese(iii) acetate, Mn(TPFPP)OAc, was immobilized on silica-coated magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles functionalized with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTS) through the amino propyl linkage using a grafting process in toluene solvent. This enabled the covalent immobilization of Mn(iii) porphyrin via an aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction, to afford the Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2@MnPor catalyst. The resulting nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, elemental analysis (CHN), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), and vibrating...

Abstract
We report a novel strategy for the synthesis of magnetic nanocomposite for highly efficient catalysis. Poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (PGMA) chains were grafted to the surface of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) through surface-initiated reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization. Then, the oxirane rings in the PGMA chains were opened with 2,6-diamino pyridine (DAP) molecules as ligands to prepare the solid support. Finally, this magnetic nanocomposite was used for the immobilization of gold nanoparticles. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, gel permeation...
