Happy Birthday

Imam Reza^PBUH): "Seven desires without seven deeds is self-mockery: asking of God's forgiveness without heartily repentance; asking God's help without undertaking effort; making firm resolution to doing something without taking due precautions; asking God for paradise without enduring the related hardships; beseeching deliverance from the hell-fire without refraining from lusts; remembering God without anticipating to encounter him".

Imam Reza^PBUH): "An intellect Muslim does not mature unless: benevolence be expected from him, people be secure of him, considers small benefaction of others as plentiful, takes plenty of his own benevolence as meager, does not get tired of demands asked to be fulfilled, does not get fatigued of seeking knowledge, loves poverty more than plentifulness, loves abjectness in the way of God more than the honor on the course against God, likes anonymity more than fame, reference others as better than himself".

New Cathode Material

Li Ion Battery:

On the functionality of the polypyrrole nanostructures for surface modification of Co-free Li-rich layered oxide cathode applied in lithium-ion batteries

Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry

No. 914 (2022) 116317

The PPy(polypyrrole)/NP (nanoparticle)/NR(nanorod)/NW (nanowire)@Co-free Li-rich oxide (PPy-NP/NR/[email protected]) composites were prepared. PPy improved the ionic and electronic conductivity of the LMNO cathodes. [email protected] cathode delivered high discharge capacity of 191 mAh g⁻¹, with capacity retention of 96%, after ∼ 200 cycles at 0.1C. Higher capacity and longer cycle-life contributed to the optimized intercalation and doping pseudocapacitive charge storage behaviour.

NiCoMgAl2O4 Catalyst

Catalyst for CH₄ reforming:

A two step Microwave-assisted coke resistant mesoporous Ni-Co catalyst for methane steam reforming

Methane steam reforming is an assuring reaction using steam to produce H₂as clean energy over a nicκel- based catalyst. We synthesized mesoporous monometallic NiMgAl2O4 and bimetallic NiCoMgAl2O4 catalysts in a two-step combustion method using a mix of fuels and powder metallurgy. The evaluation tests at 750 ◦C showed the bimetallic catalyst has the highest conversion of 99.30% with low carbon deposition of 0.09% after 15 h.

Nanocomposite

CuO/g-C3N4 nanocomposite:

One-pot microwave synthesis of hierarchical C-doped CuO dandelions/g-C3N4 nanocomposite with enhanced photostability for photoelectrochemical water splitting

C-doped CuO/g-C3N4 with a unique microstructure, enhanced hotoelectrochemical performance, and considerable photostability is synthesized under microwave irradiation.The product demonstrates 227% photoelectrocatalytic activity enhancement over CuO and ~80% photocurrent retention. The nanocomposite synergistically integrates the advantages of both the constituents, offering a low- cost, efficient photocathode for PEC water splitting, photocatalytic hydrogen evolution, and degradation of pollutants.

NiTi Dental Implant

Recent Article:

Porous shape memory dental implant by reactive sintering of TiH₂–Ni-Urea mixture

We produced bifurcated bone-like shape memory implant with desirable tooth-root fixation capability by compact-sintering of TiH2-Ni-urea mixture. The primary constituents of the porous product were Ni and Ti. We could adjust the pores’ shape, size, and interconnectivity for favorite bone ingrowth by using urea as a space holder. Bending tests showed 0.9 mm recoverable deflection for specimens which assisted immediate self-fixation of the implant into the jaw bone cavity.
