A mechanism for the reaction between acetone and hydrogen peroxide leading to the formation of the important homemade explosive Acetone Peroxide is postulated. The proposed mechanistic scheme is based on Raman and Nuclear ...

The preparation of copper colloidal suspensions was conducted by three different methods. These methods used wet chemical synthesis, in which a metal salt solution was mixed with a solution containing the reducing agent. ...

Polymer micro and nanoparticles are an emerging type of material with promising applications for remediation and degradation of environmental contaminants in water, due to their enhanced surface area and chemical reactivity. ...

Raman spectroscopy is a powerful tool for detection because the Raman spectra yields information about the molecular structure of a given analyte and the technique is commonly used as a molecular fingerprint. However the ...
