Synthesis and Investigation of the Swelling Behavior of Superabsorbents Based on Gelatin and k-Carrageenan and Loading of KNO3 as aModel of Agrochemical Onto Them
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Pourjavadi , Ali (Supervisor)
Abstract
This thesis focuses on the preparation and super-swelling behavior of a superabsorbent hydrogel based on natural macro-molecules and loading potassium nitrite as an agro-chemical onto it. 1-In this investigation a new type of superabsorbent hydrogel based on Gelatin and k-Carrageenan was prepared and the effect of the feed ratio of some components (acrylic acid, MBA, APS, and agar) on the swelling capacity of the hydrogel was systematically studied. The structure of the hydrogel optimized final product was found to be 1064 g/g in distilled water. The structure of the hydrogel was characterized by FT_IR method and morphology of the samples was examined by scamming electron microscopy (SEM)....
Biopolymers Mediated Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles With Definite Shape and Their Biomedical Activity Investigation
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Pourjavadi, Ali (Supervisor)
Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are promising agents in bionanotechnology, because of their unique activity against unfavorable processes in bioscience such as undesirable microbial growth, angiogenesis in tumors and etc. Ag-NPs have been widely used in wound dressing; wound healing, water treatment filters, inks, sensors, catalysts, cosmetics, orthopaedics, surgical instruments and vascular prosthesis. Ever-increasing applications of Ag-NPs in biomedical field are due to the anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-platelet, anti-proliferative, anti-inflammatory (apoptosis detection) and anti-angiogenesis properties (cancer therapy). In the current research, we synthesized Ag-NPs in...
Methylene Blue Removal from Contaminated Water by using Graphene Nano-Palte
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Shayegan, Jalaleddin (Supervisor)
Abstract
Organic dye couldn’t be treated by conventional method (biological method) due to their durable structure. In recent years, graphene based adsorbent has become more popular; this is because of high specific surface area and presence of numerous functional group on its surface. Due to the widespread application of organic dye in different industry especially in textile industry, stability and toxicity nature of them, finding an appropriate and cost effective method in treatment of this pollutant is very important. In this study, preparing and characterization of 3-D gel magnetic graphene oxide/kappa carrageenan was conducted and its ability of dye adsorption was tested. For this purpose, at...
