Porous thin films have becom very atractive due to their applications in many types of electronic and optical devices. There are several methods for deposition of such films. Chemical method for deposition of nanoporous thin films are relatively simple, but usually hard to control. In this thesis, chemical deposition of thin porous Molybden films is reported. In addition, an available sputtering system has been modified and, controlled porosity thin films were then deposited on glass and silicon substrates using GLAD method.These films have been characerized, and compared with chemically deposited porous thin films  

During the various stages of uranium processing in Uranium Conversion Facility (UCF) in Isfahan, significant amounts of liquid waste stream is produced which is sent to evaporation ponds. In addition to environmental considerations, uranium recovery from existing pools is also economically feasible due to high concentration uranium in liquid waste. Several methods have been evolved over the years to remove dissolved uranium from uranium bearing solution. These methods are: chemical precipitation, liquid-liquid extraction, ion exchange and membrane processes. The purpose of this study is recovery of uranium from liquid waste of Isfahan UCF plant by using ion exchange method. Although this... 

This projct includes the following sections: In the first section, Michael addition reaction of anthrone to nitroolefins is described in water without using any catalyst to prepare 9-(2-nitro-1-arylethyl)anthracene-10(9H)-ones. This method is green, efficient and gives high yields of products. The solvent effect is also investigated. In the second section, Considerable efforts have been directed in recent years towards the transition metal complex catalyzed oxidation of organic compounds such as olefins, sulfides, benzylics alcohols and phenolics. And due to the various advantages of supported heterogeneous catalysts and in our aim to develop a simple, more efficient and eco-friendly... 

In this projekt, nanophotocatalysts containing metal oxides and oxy-acids based on the nanoporous materials were synthesized. The photocatalytic properties of the prepared samples were evaluated by the photodegradation of day moleculs in photocatalytic systems. The catalytic results revealed that Ag3VO4/Cu-MOF/rGO exhibits noticeably an improvement in both efficiency and rate of AB92 photodegradation in comparison with the pure Ag3VO4. Using different scanning mechanisms for the catalytic properties of the synthesized nanocomposites, it was clearly demonstrated that the anionic superoxide plays a decisive role. Reduction of 4-NP in the presence of NaBH4 was also used to investigate... 

Nanocomposites are fabricated by incorporating nano-scale particles in polymer, metal, or ceramic matrices. Metal matrix nanocomposites are a new kind of materials which have shown superior mechanical features, such as high strength, stiffness, and hardness. However, they are not sensitive to high temperature, in contrast to the polymer matrix nanocomposites. Nanoporous materials, also, have wide range of applications in different fields, such as geology, biology, biomechanics, and electronic. Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) have shown wonderful properties like high Young’s modulus, high resonance frequency and unique electrical behavior. Wonderful mechanical and electrical properties make CNTs... 

In recent years carbon nanotubes and other carbon nanostructures such as graphene sheets have attracted a lot of attention due to their unique mechanical, thermal and electrical properties. These structures can be used in desalination of sea water, removal of hazardous substances from water tanks, gases separation, and so on. The nano porous single layer graphene membranes are very efficient for desalinating water due to their very low thickness. In this study, the mechanism of passing water and salt ions through nano porous single-layer graphene membrane are simulated using classical molecular dynamics. In the simulation, in order to separate salt ions from the water, the effects of applied... 

Nanophotocatalysts containing metal oxides and oxy-acids based on the nanoporous materials such as graphene, metal-organic-frameworks and carbon nano tubes were synthesized. The photocatalytic properties of the prepared samples were evaluated by the photodegradation of different pollutants in the suspension and emulsion photocatalytic systems. This study demonstrates a new kind of photocatalytic system via utilization of the superior specific properties inherent in Pickering emulsion. We designed the new photocatalytic system using a photocatalytic active component and hydrophobic conducting nanostructures to form the stabilized Pickering emulsion (Pe-bp system). The results revealed that... 

Corrosion is caused through chemical interactions between metal and gases in the surrounding environment. Conductive polymers are used for corrosion protection, polyaniline is the most environmentally stable out of all the conductive polymers, the most studied of this materials, is highly stable, synthesized easily, highly conducting, and readily converted between its various oxidation states.
In this study we prepared nanoporous polyaniline coating on carbon steel to corrosion protection. Coating was included nanopouros polyaniline with doping molybdate (PANI-MoO_4^(-2)). To increase adhesion between steel and PANI-MoO_4^(-2) layer, oxalic acid was used. Polystyrene nanoparticle layer...
