Umidificação de sementes de girassol após ultrassecagem em sílica gel e câmara de secagem

Dentre os processos que precedem a conservação em longo prazo, a secagem tem papel fundamental, uma vez que o conteúdo de água das sementes afeta diretamente a sua longevidade. Os objetivos desse trabalho foram pesquisar o efeito da umidificação prévia das sementes após ultrassecagem em diferentes teores de água sobre a qualidade fisiológica de sementes de girassol. Sementes com conteúdo inicial de água de 4,7% foram embebidas previamente até conteúdo de água de 10,2%, e submetidas à secagem lenta, conduzida em câmara de secagem, e à secagem rápida, em sílica gel, até conteúdos de água de 7,4; 3,2; 2,9% e 5,3; 3,2; 2,1%, respectivamente. Após a secagem rápida ou lenta, as sementes foram submetidas ou não à umidificação em caixas tipo "gerbox" até o teor de água de 15,8 a 17% e então avaliadas quanto à germinação, peso da matéria seca de raiz, parte aérea e total das plântulas e teste de condutividade elétrica. O delineamento experimental foi o inteiramente casualizado em esquema fatorial 5 (teores de água) x 2 (com e sem umidificação). Quando utilizado a secagem rápida, a germinação das sementes não é prejudicada, e a secagem lenta, até conteúdo de água de 2,9%, proporciona uma redução na germinação das sementes. Sementes de girassol podem ser desidratadas tanto em sílica gel quanto em câmara de secagem até teores de água de 3,2%, sem perda de germinação e vigor. O tratamento de umidificação após secagem propicia um melhor desenvolvimento de raiz e menores valores de condutividade elétrica nas sementes desidratadas em sílica gel e em câmara de secagem.

Template-Assisted Synthesis and Characterization of Passivated Nickel Nanoparticles

Potential applications of nickel nanoparticles demand the synthesis of self-protected nickel nanoparticles by different synthesis techniques. A novel and simple technique for the synthesis of self-protected nickel nanoparticles is realized by the inter-matrix synthesis of nickel nanoparticles by cation exchange reduction in two types of resins. Two different polymer templates namely strongly acidic cation exchange resins and weakly acidic cation exchange resins provided with cation exchange sites which can anchor metal cations by the ion exchange process are used. The nickel ions which are held at the cation exchange sites by ion fixation can be subsequently reduced to metal nanoparticles by using sodium borohydride as the reducing agent. The composites are cycled repeating the loading reduction cycle involved in the synthesis procedure. X-Ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Transmission Electron microscopy, Energy Dispersive Spectrum, and Inductively Coupled Plasma Analysis are effectively utilized to investigate the different structural characteristics of the nanocomposites. The hysteresis loop parameters namely saturation magnetization and coercivity are measured using Vibrating Sample Magnetometer. The thermomagnetization study is also conducted to evaluate the Curie temperature values of the composites. The effect of cycling on the structural and magnetic characteristics of the two composites are dealt in detail. A comparison between the different characteristics of the two nanocomposites is also provided

High Density Single Crystalline GaN Nanodot Arrays Fabricated Using Template-Assisted Selective Growth

High density, uniform GaN nanodot arrays with controllable size have been synthesized by using template-assisted selective growth. The GaN nanodots with average diameter 40nm, 80nm and 120nm were selectively grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) on a nano-patterned SiO2/GaN template. The nanoporous SiO2 on GaN surface was created by inductively coupled plasma etching (ICP) using anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template as a mask. This selective regrowth results in highly crystalline GaN nanodots confirmed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The narrow size distribution and uniform spatial position of the nanoscale dots offer potential advantages over self-assembled dots grown by the Stranski–Krastanow mode.
