Solar Light Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene Blue and Methyl Orange Dyes by Ag-ZnO Nanocomposite
Abstract: A highly efficient silver-assisted ZnO nanocomposite was synthesized using the co-precipitation method, a technique that ensures a controlled and homogeneous formation of the composite material. The high purity of the synthesized nanocomposite was confirmed through detailed FTIR spectra analysis, which showed clear and distinct peaks corresponding to the functional groups present, indicating the absence of significant impurities. To evaluate the photocatalytic capabilities of the nanocomposite, a series of tests were …

Polymer Chemistry-Driven Design of a Severable Dental Prophylaxis Instrument: Leveraging PEEK and Composites for Enhanced Functionality
Abstract: Polymer chemistry unlocks new possibilities for dental prophylaxis instruments by leveraging molecular design for enhanced functionality. This study explores Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK), a semi-crystalline thermoplastic, in a novel instrument with a severable working end, featuring a tubular structure with internal screw threads (0.5–0.8 cm) anchoring replaceable elements via a threaded mechanism. PEEK’s aromatic backbone, alternating ether and ketone groups, yields a tensile strength of ~100 MPa, chemical inertness against …

A Comparative Study on Associated Factors of Hypertension Among Working Women and Non-working Women
Abstract: Background: One in four people worldwide is affected by high blood pressure, which is also the third leading cause of illness and a significant risk factor for death. Compared to non-working women, employed women had a higher prevalence of hypertension. This might be attributed to various factors such as job-related stress, lack of relaxation, and lack of physical activity. Method: Quantitative approach was adopted. To investigate the related determinants of …
