As it was demonstrated in Figure 2, the peaks at 1703 and 1727 cm-1 in the MPS-comprising nanohybrids appeared, while the peak at 1745 cm-1 vanished. Through the formation of MPS-comprising nanohybrids, the observation of the new absorption bands (1707 and 1727 cm-1 ) concomitant of the absorption at 1733 cm-1 may be owing to the formation of ester groups through the reaction between carboxylic acid groups of PAA oligomers and silanol groups of silica moieties 12. Besides, in SiO2/PAA hybrids,…
2.7 Styrene Butadiene Rubber Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) belongs to the synthetic rubbers families that are derived from Styrene and Butadiene.[53] SBR is an aqueous dispersion of (25%) Styrene (CH2=CHC6H5) and (75%) Butadiene (CH2=CH-CH=CH2) copolymer as shown in Figure (2-1). The copolymerization of these two polymers may done by different ways. Mostly they copolymerized in an emulsion process, by dispersing a soap like surface acting agent where the materials are in water solution.[54]…
1. INTRODUCTION Thiosemicarbazone is a derivative of imine which is formed when an aldehyde/ketone reacts with a thiosemicarbzide through a condensation reaction. The presence of the hetero atoms like Sulphur and Nitrogen makes these derivatives biologically active. Lately, great emphasis is laid on the synthesis and development of these derivatives reason being the wide variety of pharmacological activities exhibited by them. So far, thiosemicarbazones have been shown to exhibit analgesic and…
Abstract A Friedal-Craft reaction was performed to synthesize 1,4-di-t-butyl-2,5-dimethoxy-benzene from p-dimethoxybenzene and t-butyl alcohol. The product of the reaction was filtered using a Hirsch funnel, before recrystallizing and filtering a second time. The recorded mass of the product was .08g and the melting point was 47-52.7 °C. Introduction1 This experiment was designed to practice working with electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. Specifically, a Friedel-Craft reaction was…
Functionalism What is Functionalism? Trace its historical origins. Functionalism origin is quit blurred due to the many psychologists and philosophers who contributed to the making of functionalism. There is no one person who come up with functionalism but more so it was development over time, there are many that contributed and we will touch on some of the key psychologists and people that contributed in the making of functionalism we know as today . The thought of functionalism was…
Your learning journal entry must be a reflective statement that considers the following questions: 1. Describe what you did. This does not mean that you copy and paste from what you have posted or the assignments you have prepared. You need to describe what you did and how you did it. Read through required materials, and then accomplished the tasks required. I completed the first part of the discussion question earlier than previous weeks, which allowed others to read, and reply to it. I had…
CONCLUSION Within this conclusion, the three aforementioned inquiries posed within the portion titled “Bonding in Alcohols in Relation to Boiling Point” will be answered thoroughly within an analytic context. 1) “On average, by how many degrees celsius does the boiling point increase when the addition of an extra carbon atom in a straight-chain homologous series of saturated alcohols occurs?” On average, as per calculations conducted, the boiling point increases by a magnitude of…
Discourse/s Gee (1990) defined Discourse as a “socially accepted association among ways of using language, of thinking, feeling, believing, valuing, and of acting that can be used to identify oneself…of a socially meaningful group…” (Gee, 1990, p. 143, as cited in McCarthy, 2016). Language Register It is important that children learn what Language Register and take advantage as “Competent oral communication requires being able to use a variety of language registers and being able to choose…
The modern brain-imaging techniques have provided the opportunities for the psychologist to investigate the active brain. The brain-imaging technologies are useful in neuropsychology as they allow the researchers to examine the active brain. The brain-imaging technologies also enable the researchers to see where specific brain activities happen, therefore to study the localisation of function in the living brain. The correlations between activity and behaviour can be provided as well, even…
Like any other cells in the body, when neurons are activated they consume glucose and oxygen to fuel their activity and they produce metabolic waste. According to Sadock, Sadock, and Ruiz (2015), a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) device works from this principal by using high magnetic fields and radio frequencies to indicate activity. The fMRI helps the medical professional to peer into brain activity, not by measuring brain activity directly, but by observing the flux of oxygen…
