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. ...

The productivity of suspended mammalian cell cultures plays a major role in the overall manufacturing costs of biotechnology products. Upstream cell culture product variability can lead to problems in downstream purification ...

The development of quantitative calibration models by near infrared (NIR) and Raman spectroscopy with the capability of predicting concentration in a wider range than the currently used approach will be described. Current ...

The solubility of 1,3,5-trinitrohexahydro-s-triazine (RDX) in different alcohols were measured by HPLC, DSC, GC/MS, and NMR. The conformation of RDX in acetone-D6 solution was verified by vibrational studies using Raman ...

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 ...
