Article Abstract

The Keggin-based molybdo-substituted tungstophosphoric acid, H[PWMoO]·12HO, were synthesized and incorporated with a bentonite clay by using a wetness impregnation method. The catalysts were characterized using several methods, such as inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA). This extremely active catalytic system provides a green strategy for the synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthene and 1,8-dioxo-decahydroacridine derivatives under solvent free conditions at 80 °C with a good reaction mass efficiency, effective mass yield, and excellent atom economy. Both the surface acidity and catalytic activity sharply increased after H[PWMoO]·12HO was impregnated with bentonite clay. In addition, the PWMo/bentonite catalyst can be conveniently recovered and reused numerous times without demonstrating a significant loss in activity.

In this research, the effect of different plasticizers with different amounts on the properties of monolithic alumina-based refractories has been investigated. All samples were fired at 1100 °C and 1550 °C. In order to evaluate the desired properties, first the rheological properties of the samples were examined, and then for further investigations, loss on ignition (LOI), percentage of permanent linear changes (PLC), apparent porosity (AP), bulk density (BD) and cold crushing strength (CCS) tests were used.

Bentonite clay nanoparticles assume a pivotal role in 3D bioprinting and tissue engineering by augmenting the mechanical rigidity and biological efficacy of hydrogels. In this investigation, Span80 was employed as a surfactant to facilitate the synthesis of uniformly sized bentonite nanoparticles measuring approximately 700 nm in diameter. The resultant hybrid hydrogel displaced a marked increase in compressive modulus, achieving a peak value of 17.

Fungi and soil bacteria are vital for organic matter decomposition and biogeochemical cycles, but excessive synthetic fertilizer use contributes to soil degradation and loss of biodiversity. Despite this, about 97% of soil microorganisms are unculturable, making them difficult to study. Metagenomics offers a solution, enabling the direct extraction of DNA from soil to uncover microbial diversity and functions.
