Congratulations:
for 15th of Sha'ban

Muhammad^(PBUH): "During the night of 15th Sha'ban the Almighty takes decisions in the matters of sustenance, life, death and welfare of the people".

Muhammad^(PBUH): "Shabaan is my month". The holy Prophet^(PBUH) used to observe fast during the whole month of Sha'baan.

The fifteenth night of the eighth month of the Islamic lunar calendar (Mid-Sha'ban) is of great importance because for many historic occasions and significant relevance. This day is celebrated because of the birthday of the 11th grandson of the prophet Muhammad^(PBUH), who is to rid the world of tyranny and injustice in the darkest days of misery and transgression. This night is at the same time important for provision of priceless chance for repentance and possible forgiveness.

Both hard-tissue replacement and drug-delivery can be achieved via anodic oxidation/electrospun coating in Titanium-implants. The order and size of the titanium oxide nanotubes which facilitate drug-delivery, are both controllable. For prevention of the local bacterial infection, Vancomycin loading is possible. To prevent explosive release, nano-polymeric cords can be placed on the oxidized titanium nanotubes.

In-situ synthesis of porous g-C₃N₄/SnO₂ catalyst by fast microwave-assisted method was done. Sn derivatives in the condensation step triggered simple pyrolysis of urea to C₃N₄. The visible-light catalyst had high potential for clean energy production.

NiCoCrAlY/CoNiCrAlY Coatings:

NiCoCrAlY coating is more resistant to 1000°C air-oxidation than CoNiCrAlY. The main protecting phase on NiCoCrAlY is α-Alumina. Oxidation of CoNiCrAlY initially is sub-parabolic; while finally parabolic.

Recent Article:

Foamy nanocatalysts of Ni-Pd-CNT were synthesized by electroless deposition method. BET results indicated specific surface areas as high as 611.3 m²/g for Ni-Pd-CNTs. TPR and TPO activation energies reduced with addition of Pd-CNT to the Ni foam. At 850 °C, Ni-Pd-0.1CNT nanocatalyst increased methane conversion rate up to 85 %. Ni-Pd-0.1CNT resulted in 22% higher methane conversion than Ni-MgO catalyst.
