Organic contaminants are used to be found in industrial wastewater treatment procedures, and heavy metal ion removal is difficult. Photo Fenton reaction activity was exploited in this study to decompose organic contaminants using a functional composite hydrogel. Polyacrylonitrile (PAN), Fe3O4 particles, and graphene oxide make up the hydrogel (GO). It is made from GO/ Fe3O4 and is made using the precipitation technique. GO is made from graphite using the Hummers process. And it has exceptional mechanical strength and Photo-Fenton activity as a result of various breakdown data that were influenced differently, such as H2O2 concentration, dye concentration, temperature, and irradiation duration. Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) was used to examine the composite's shape and average diameter. Under UV irradiation, the degradation of Methylene Blue dye (M.B) by the PAN/Fe3O4/GO hydrogel composite reached 100% after 90 min. Meanwhile, after 90 min of visible irradiation, COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) dropped to 9 mg/L and dropped to low (sub range) after two anda half hours. This research proposes a new method for processing high-consistency industrial effluent that is difficult to decompose.
This work involved the co-substitution of the two bioactive ions of strontium and magnesium into the hydroxyapatite (HA) coating which was then electrochemically deposited on Ti-6Al-4V ELI dental alloy (Gr.23) before and after treatment by Micro Arc Oxidation (MAO). The deposited layers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The adhesion strength of the coating layer was estimated by using pull-off adhesion test. The adhesion strength of Sr/Mg-HA on the Ti-6Al-4V ELI dental alloy after MAO treatment was 1.79 MPa, which was higher than that before MAO treatment (1.62 MPa). The corrosion behavior of the alloy in artificial saliva environment at temperature ranged 293-323K was assessed by means of electrochemical techniques and potentiodynamic polarization curves. The corrosion protection to the alloy at 293K was increased from 67.98% before treatment by MAO to 75.87% after treatment. The antimicrobial properties of the coated alloy were evaluated against different bacteria and oral fungi (Candida).
The present work reports the electrochemical synthesis of poly N Terminal tetrahydrophthalamic acid on stainless steel 316 (S.S), which acts as a working electrode, using an electrochemical polymerization technique. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) characterized the formed polymer film. Corrosion protection tests for coated and uncoated S.S with polymer film were studied in 0.2 M hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution by using electrochemical polarization technique. Kinetic and thermodynamic activation parameters (Ea, A, ΔH*, ΔS* and ΔG*) were calculated. The biological activity of the polymeric film was determined against Gram positive (Staphylococcus aureus; Staph.aure) and negative bacteria (Escherichia coli; E.coli).In addition, the polymer film was modified with nanomaterials(ZnO n nano and Graphene).
