Hydrogen gas is considered as a clean fuel and energy carrier that its storage for future uses is a challenging issue. One of the methods to store it, is adsorption on a group of adsorbents called metal-organic frameworks. In this research, one of these frameworks called ZIF-8, has been selected to study hydrogen storage capability. To evaluate the effect of having two metals, a mixture of two metals was used in the synthesis process. To characterize the structure of the synthesized adsorbents, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD),adsorption and desorption of nitrogen at temperature of 77 K, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), energy-dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) and... 

In order to prevent electrostatic attraction on non-conductive surfaces, the most practical solution is to put antistatic coatings to reduce surface resistance. Nano tin oxide coatings are designed to produce surfaces with antistatic properties in the resistance range of 108-1012 Ω/cm. In this project, using a simple method, low temperature, without heat treatment and without the use of additive (dopant), tin oxide films with antistatic property were placed on the glass. Further, in order to obtain a coating with a suitable morphology and structure to increase the surface conductivity, the synthesis of tin oxide using the sol-gel method at ambient temperature was used. And to place the... 

In this study, nano-powders of copper-cobalt spinel (CuCo2O4) were fabricated by solution combustion synthesis (SCS) of Cu and Co nitrates with urea, glycine,acid citric and alanine. The method involved exothermic decomposition of viscous liquid nitrates and the fuel. Products which were synthesized by using this fuels contained less impurity constituents. Duo to low purity, other factors which have influence on synthesis process investigated and observed that pH have key role on process. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns gave crystal structure and the existing phases. Particle size distribution and morphology changes were studied by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and field emission scanning... 

In this research, a nanocomposite blend of polyamide 6/polystyrene containing polyaniline-coated carbon nanotubes was fabricated via melt blending method, aiming to achieve electrical conductivity in the range of static dissipation. The effect of weight percentage of nanofillers and surface modification of carbon nanotubes with polyaniline on the electrical properties and microstructure of the nanocomposite was investigated. To promote compatibility between the immiscible polyamide 6 and polystyrene polymers, PS-g-MA compatibilizer was utilized, and its effect on the morphology of the nanocomposite blend was examined. Additionally, the influence of weight percentage of nanofillers and the...
