Summary: This study reports on the effective degradation of MB and MO dyes in an aqueous solution using nano ZnFe2O4, NiFe2O4, and Fe3O4 under UV light irradiation, without the need for supplementary oxidants. The nano ferrite catalysts were successfully prepared using biodegradable starch as a surfactant. The results showed that all the ferrite catalysts exhibited high stability and achieved significant decolorization of the dyes, with NiFe2O4 demonstrating the best performance due to its low bandgap and high surface area. These findings suggest that the nano ferrites prepared in this study have great potential for the photocatalytic degradation of MB and MO in water solutions.

Summary: The effect of thermal annealing on the structural, optical and magnetic properties of alpha-Fe2O3/Ni1+xFe2-xO4 nanocomposites was investigated. The results showed that annealing increased the NiFe2O4 phase and magnetization of the nanocomposites. The annealing temperature had no effect on the optical properties of the samples, but led to the formation of irregular elliptical particles. All synthesized samples displayed effective exchange coupling and ferromagnetic features at room temperature.

Summary: A novel hexagonal ferrite-based core-shell-shell nanostructures (SrFe@Dop@M, M = Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu and Zn) were designed for dual application of simultaneous electrochemical detection and photocatalytic degradation. The synthesized nanostructures were characterized by PXRD, FE-SEM, HR-TEM, and XPS techniques. The best photocatalytic performance was observed in SrFe@Dop@Mn, which had the lowest energy band gap value and highest electron transfer rate. The modified SrFe@Dop@Mn glassy carbon electrode was successfully used as an electrochemical sensor for the detection of levofloxacin in waste water samples.

Summary: The size, quantity, morphology, and structure of inclusions in steel treated with rare earth using different deoxidizers were studied. Rare earth tended to refine inclusions and increase their number density in steel. Calcium and titanium, when combined with rare earth, could reduce the number densities and affect the mean diameters and aspect ratios of the inclusions. The automatic analysis system showed better performance in counting the content percentage of inclusions, while manual inclusion statistical analysis was superior for determining the inclusion number and size in rare earth-containing steel.

Summary: The corrosion inhibitory potency of two new pyrimidine-pyrazole derivatives, PPA and PPC, was evaluated for mild steel in 1 M HCl. The results showed enhanced inhibition activities with increased concentration, reaching maximal values of 91.15% and 92.39% for PPA and PPC, respectively. However, the mitigation potency decreased with increasing temperature. SEM and XPS analysis revealed that PPA and PPC adsorbed on the mild steel surface, forming a shielding layer that prevented the dissolution of the steel in the acidic solution.
