Produktbeschreibung

Nitrated Aromatic Compounds (NACs) are being used in bomb blast activities. They are highly acute and toxic in nature causing serious environmental and health issues like skin and eyes diseases, liver malfunction and tumor formation. Now a day, degradation of explosive compounds is a big issue. A solvent controlled synthesis of metal oxides nanoparticles was done using hydrothermal method. The nanoparticles were characterized by using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis (EDX), Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Thermo gravimetric Analysis (TGA) and X- Ray Diffraction (XRD). The catalytic effect of metal oxides nanoparticles were studied by degradation of Nitrated Aromatic Compound using spectrophotometric method in presence of UV-light. Degradation was also confirmed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Gas-Chromatography Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS).
