Study of the applicability of fe nanotubes as an anode material of lithium-ion batteries

The paper presents the results of the use of iron nanotubes as the anode material of lithiumion batteries. To assess the degradation of the morphology of nanostructures after different numbers of cycles of life tests, the method of scanning electron microscopy, Mossbauer spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction analysis were applied. It is shown that the decrease in discharge capacity starts at the 380th cycle and is caused by the onset of degradation processes of nanostructures due to the formation of amorphous inclusions and an increase in macrostresses and distortions in the structure. The complete degradation of the structure is observed after the 492nd life cycle test. According to the data obtained by Mossbauer spectroscopy, it has been established that an increase in life cycles leads to an increase in contribution of partial spectrum characteristic of a paramagnetic state. That indicates an increase in degradation rate of nanostructures and an increase in the content of impurity inclusions and amorphous formations in the crystal structure. © 2019, Electromagnetics Academy.

Structural and magnetic studies of FE100–xCox nanotubes obtaine by template method

Hollow nanostructures based on the Fe100–xCox alloy were synthesized in the pores of polymer template matrices based on PET using the electrochemical deposition method. Morphology, elemental composition, and structural features were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive analysis, and X-ray diffractometry. The study of the internal magnetic texture was carried out using Mossbauer spectroscopy. The dependence of the change in structural and magnetic properties from the atomic content of components in nanotube structure is revealed. It is established that the synthesized nanostructures are hollow Fe100–xCox nanotubes with a body-centered cubic crystal structure. The decrease in the unit cell parameter with increasing cobalt concentration is due to the difference in the radii of Fe (1.227 Å) and Co (1.191 Å) atoms. It is established that a random distribution of magnetic moments directions of Fe atoms is observed for Fe100Co0 nanotubes. And magnetic texture along the nanotube axis is observed for Fe100–xCox nanotubes, with an increase in Co atoms concentration. The average angle between the direction of the magnetic moment of iron atoms and the nanotube axis decreases from v = 54:6° to v = 24:5°. © 2018, Electromagnetics Academy. All rights reserved

Взаимосвязь эмоционального интеллекта и уровня толерантности личности

В последние десятилетия, в рамках формирования гуманистического мировоззрения, тема толерантности стала одной из наиболее актуальных и широко востребованных во всем мире. Развитие современного общества диктует соответствующие требования к социальному поведению гражданина, определяя толерантное поведение как наиболее эффективную модель взаимодействия в социуме. Толерантность как модель социального поведения предполагает проявление ответственного и осмысленного нравственного выбора каждого человека, способность оценивать ситуацию с позиции значимости и адекватности, умение вставать на позицию «другого» и рассматривать ситуацию под иным углом, способность к перестройке неадекватных установок, отношений, конструктов. При этом следует помнить о возможном возникновении психологических проблем, обусловленных внутренним конфликтом, который образуется в результате столкновения собственных интересов человека и необходимостью учёта интересов другой стороны (поиска компромисса). Стремительное развитие взаимодействия во всех сферах жизни в последние годы заставляет человека быть психологически готовым к терпимости для возможности достижения и взаимопонимания между социальными группами, гражданами иной культурной, социальной или религиозной среды.The main aim of the given work is the identifcation of the specifcs of the correlation and mutual interconnection between the emotional intelligence and the level of tolerance of the individual. The development of modern society necessitates the homologous requirements for the social behavior of a citizen, defning tolerant behavior as the most effective model of interaction in society. Tolerance as a model of social behavior implies the manifestation of a responsible and sensible moral choice of each individual, the ability to assess the situation from the standpoint of relevance and adequacy, the ability to take the position of «another» and view the situation from a different perspective, the ability to restructure inadequate attitudes, relationships, constructs. The ability to live in a society with preservation of one’s own rights and respect for other members of society is determined by the level of emotional intelligence

Influence of deposition potential on structure of Zn-based nanotubes

The rapid growth of the market of electronic devices designed on the base of micro- and nanoelectronic components requires novel unconventional approaches for nanostructures formation. In this regard, ion-track technology, which allows forming nanostructures with a predetermined geometry is very promising. The paper demonstrates a simple and scalable approach to the creation of nanotubes based on pure zinc and its oxide. The main idea of the work is to determine the possibility of controlling of the nanotubes morphology and composition by variation of the deposition potential. In this concern, template synthesis of zincbased nanotubes in the PET template pores is carried out at potentials in the range from 1.25 to 2 V and a comprehensive study of their structural and morphological features is provided. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd

Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles for complex targeted delivery and boron neutron capture therapy

Magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles (NPs) and their surface modification with therapeutic substances are of great interest, especially drug delivery for cancer therapy, including boron-neutron capture therapy (BNCT). In this paper, we present the results of boron-rich compound (carborane borate) attachment to previously aminated by (3-aminopropyl)-trimethoxysilane (APTMS) iron oxide NPs. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy with Attenuated total reflectance accessory (ATR-FTIR) and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis confirmed the change of the element content of NPs after modification and formation of new bonds between Fe3O4 NPs and the attached molecules. Transmission (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed Fe3O4 NPs’ average size of 18.9 nm. Phase parameters were studied by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), and the magnetic behavior of Fe 3 O 4 NPs was elucidated by Mössbauer spectroscopy. The colloidal and chemical stability of NPs was studied using simulated body fluid (phosphate buffer-PBS). Modified NPs have shown excellent stability in PBS (pH = 7.4), characterized by XRD, Mössbauer spectroscopy, and dynamic light scattering (DLS). Biocompatibility was evaluated in-vitro using cultured mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). The results show us an increasing of IC50 from 0.110 mg/mL for Fe 3 O 4 NPs to 0.405 mg/mL for Fe 3 O 4 -Carborane NPs. The obtained data confirm the biocompatibility and stability of synthesized NPs and the potential to use them in BNCT. © 2019 by the authors.

Catalytic Activity of Ni Nanotubes Covered with Nanostructured Gold

Ni nanotubes (NTs) were produced by the template method in the pores of ion-track membranes and then were successfully functionalized with gold nanoparticles (Ni@Au NTs) using electroless wet-chemical deposition with the aim to demonstrate their high catalytic activity. The fab-ricated NTs were characterized using a variety of techniques in order to determine their morphology and dimensions, crystalline structure, and magnetic properties. The morphology of Au coating de-pended on the concentration of gold chloride aqueous solution used for Au deposition. The catalytic activity was evaluated by a model reaction of the reduction of 4-nitrophenol by borohydride ions in the presence of Ni and Ni@Au NTs. The reaction was monitored spectrophotometrically in real time by detecting the decrease in the absorption peaks. It was found that gold coating with needle-like structure formed at a higher Au-ions concentration had the strongest catalytic effect, while bare Ni NTs had little effect. The presence of a magnetic core allowed the extraction of the catalyst with the help of a magnetic field for reusable applications. © 2021 by the authors.
