Graphene oxide (GO) and functionalized carboxylic graphene oxide (COOH-GO) were successfully synthesized by modified Hummer’s technique. The prepared GO and COOH-GO was characterized successfully by UV-Visible Spectroscopy, Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM)& Zeta potential. The removal of U(VI) heavy metal comparative study was done by using Graphite, GO & COOH-GO and the removal were confirmed by using LED fluorimeter. The effect of pH of medium, contact time, adsorbent dose, initial concentration of U(VI) were examined for the removal of U(VI). The extent of U(VI) removal has been found to be in the order of COOH-GO >GO> graphite. The U(VI) removal maximum efficiency was observed ~96% observed at pH 4.5. The higher removal efficiency is attributed to the higher negative surface charge of COOH-GO (zeta potential:-39.9 mV) in comparison to zeta potential of GO (-28.9 mV) &graphite (-21.6 mV).

We present, Window-Shaping, a tangible mixed-reality (MR) interaction metaphor for design ideation that allows for the direct creation of 3D shapes on and around physical objects. Using the sketch-and-inflate scheme, our metaphor enables quick design of dimensionally consistent and visually coherent 3D models by borrowing visual and dimensional attributes from existing physical objects without the need for 3D reconstruction or fiducial markers. Through a preliminary evaluation of our prototype application we demonstrate the expressiveness provided by our design workflow, the effectiveness of our interaction scheme, and the potential of our metaphor.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
