Nonthermal synthesis of three-dimensional metal oxide structures under continuous-flow conditions and their catalytic applications
(American Chemical Society, 2011-10-25)
Continuous-flow synthesis of one-dimensional (1D) metal oxide nanostructures and/or their integration into hierarchical structures under nonthermal conditions is still a challenge. In this work, a nonthermal, continuous-flow ...
Light-assisted synthesis of metal oxide heirarchical structures and their catalytic applications
(American Chemical Society, 2011-02-18)
Short reaction times and morphology control in the synthesis of inorganic materials under nonthermal conditions remain a challenge. Herein we report a rapid, self-templating, and nonthermal method based on ultraviolet light ...
Self-assembly of manganese oxide nanoparticles and hollow spheres. Catalytic activity in carbon monoxide oxidation†
(2011)
Reactions between MnSO4 and KMnO4 in the presence of carboxylic acids provide a facile, one-pot route to nanostructured manganese oxides with high surface areas. Acetic and propionic acid induce formation of hierarchical ...
Chemical And Mineralogical Analysis of Geophagic Materials Consumed By Pregnant Women In Eastern Nairobi And Nyanza Provinces In Kenya
(2011)
Geophagy is the purposeful or deliberate consumption of Earth and clay deposits by animals, including man. It is a special type of pica, which is defined as the craving and subsequent consumption of non-food substances. ...
Synthesis and insecticidal activities of some selected hydroxytriazenes
(2011-10)
Eight hydroxytriazenes were synthesized and then subjected to spot tests. The composition of these hydroxytriazenes was analyzed using elemental analysis and their physical characteristics like melting point, crystal shape ...
Soil physicochemical properties under Acacia senegal varieties in the dryland areas of Kenya
(2011-08)
Acacia senegal is a multipurpose drought-tolerant tree or shrub legume and is commonly used in agroforestry systems in sub-Saharan Africa for gum arabic production and soil fertility improvement. Despite its wide distribution ...
