Biodiesel Production from Tigernut (Cyperus esculentus) Oil and Characterization of its Blend with Petro-diesel

A. U. Ofoefule, C. N. Ibeto, U. C. Okoro & O. D. Onukwuli · Physical Science International Journal · 2013

This study was carried out to assess the fuel quality of biodiesel produced from tigernut (Cyperus esculentus) oil and its blends with petro- diesel. The oil was extracted from the tigernut by solvent extraction method using petroleum ether. The oil was trans-esterified using pot...

Simulation of Nanostructures Fabricated in Chalcogenide Glasses for use as Surface- enhanced Raman Scattering Substrates

A. Zakery, A. Asrar & S. R. Elliott · Physical Science International Journal · 2013

We have simulated the Chalcogenide glass (ChG)-based nanostructures which are used as substrates for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). A discrete dipole approximation method was used and calculated results are compared to those of experimental. The results of simulation a...

Application of Non-local Quantum Hydrodynamics to the Description of the Charge Density Waves in the Graphene Crystal Lattice

Boris V. Alexeev & Irina V. Ovchinnikova · Physical Science International Journal · 2013

The motion of the charged particles in graphene in the frame of the quantum non-local hydrodynamic description is considered. It is shown as results of the mathematical modeling that the mentioned motion is realizing in the soliton forms. The dependence of the size and structure...

Synthesis and Spectroscopic Study of Naphtholic and Phenolic Azo Dyes

Olayinka O. Ajani, Oluwabunmi E. Akinremi, Alice O. Ajani, Abiola Edobor-Osoh & Winifred U. Anake · Physical Science International Journal · 2013

Azo dyes are extremely important in variety of industries for variety of technical purposes. Hence, a series of naphtholic azo dyes 1-9 were synthesized via diazotization of substituted aniline derivatives followed by azo coupling with 2-naphthol. In similar manner, diazotization...
