Investigation of ruled surfaces and their singularities according to Blaschke frame in Euclidean 3-space

Research Abstract
In this paper, we study the singularities on a non-developable ruled surface according to Blaschke’s frame in the Euclidean 3-space. Additionally, we prove that singular points occur on this kind of ruled surface and use the singularity theory technique to examine these singularities. Finally, we construct an example to confirm and demonstrate our primary finding.

Synthesis and Characterizations of Some New Selenolo[2,3-b]quinoxaline Derivatives

Research Abstract

In this paper, we present the synthesis of new selenoloquinoxaline derivatives starting from 2-Chloroquinoxaline-3-carbonitrile 1. The compound 1 was subjected to a reaction with Selenium metal in the presence of NaBH4 as a reducing agent in ethanol, under a nitrogen atmosphere. This reaction resulted in the formation of the sodium salt of 3-cyanoquinoxaline-2-selenolate, which was subsequently reacted with α-halogenated carbonyl compounds in situ. This reaction produced a serious of newly synthesized 3-aminoselenolo[2,3-b]quinoxaline-2-substituents. Ethyl 3-aminoselenolo[2,3-b]quinoxaline-2-carboxylate 3a was hydrolyzed by sodium hydroxide to give the corresponding sodium salt 9. This salt was then refluxed with acetic anhydride to produce oxazinone compound 10. The reaction of compound 10 with ammonium acetate afforded pyrimidoselenolo[2,3-b]qinoxaline derivative 11. Compound 11 was then Chlorinated using phosphorous oxychloride to give the corresponding chlorocompound.

Experimental and simulated TD-DFT study of malachite green dye and tetrahydroquinoxaline hybrid blend: its application removal from wastewater

Research Abstract
2-Carbethoxy-3-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxaline (CTQ) was synthesized using a condensation reaction between o-phenylenediamine and diethylbromomalonate under regulated conditions.  CTQ compound was used as a powerful adsorbent in the elimination of harmful malachite green (MG) dye from wastewater using the spectrophotometer technique. By applying Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT-B3LYP) with 6-31G(d,p) as the basis, the optimized geometries, vibrational wavenumbers, intensities of vibrational bands, and various atomic charges of 9VC have been investigated. The basic vibrational modes measured experimentally are analyzed and compared to theoretical predictions. Density functional theory (DFT) was used to examine the geometry, electronic structure, polarizability, and hyperpolarizability of the hybrid blend organic dye (CTQ+MG)HB, which contains p-conjugated tetrahydroquinoxaline unit with an electron donor-acceptor moiety, and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) with several hybrid functionals were used to examine the electronic absorption spectrum. Various factors affecting the removal of this toxic dye like adsorbent dose, contact time, initial dye concentration, and dye solution temperature were examined. To show the equilibrium of the adsorption, Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models were utilized. Freundlich and Langmuir's equations' correlation coefficient values were found to be in perfect agreement. The transfer of MG to quinoxaline is regulated by a pseudo-second-order procedure. The adsorption approach was a spontaneous and exothermic type. A suitable reaction mechanism has also been described and explored in this study along with an analysis of the thermodynamic parameters.

UV-Irradiation Effects on the Optical Properties of Polyvinyl Alcohol/Carboxymethyl Cellulose/Polyvinyl Pyrrolidone/Tin Chromium Disulphide Nanocomposite Films for their Application in Optoelectronic Devices

Research Abstract

A nanocomposite (NC) film containing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), carboxymethyl
cellulose (CMC) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) polymers
and tin chromium disulfide (Sn0.75Cr0.25S2) nanoparticles (NPs)
was prepared using thermolysis and casting techniques. The prepared
NPs were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission
electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. The induced
alterations in the optical and color properties of the prepared PVA/
CMC/PVP/Sn0.75Cr0.25S2 NC film due to UV irradiation, within fluences
ranging from 10 to 80 Joule/cm2 (J/cm2), were characterized via UV
spectroscopy and the International Commission on Illumination (CIE)
color changes techniques. As the UV fluence increased up to 80 J/
cm2, the maximum fluence used, both the direct and indirect bandgaps
decreased. We attribute this to the dominance of formed chain
crosslinks that destroyed the ordered structure and, thus, increased
the amorphous regions. The effect of UV irradiation on the absorbance,
refractive index, real and imaginary dielectric parameters and
optical conductivity of the NC samples were studied. Furthermore,
the optical color changes between the pristine and the irradiated
films were evaluated. The pristine NC film was uncolored. It showed
significant color changes when irradiated with the UV radiation at
increasing fluences up to 80 J/cm2. The changes in the optical properties
of PVA/CMC/PVP/Sn0.75Cr0.25S2 NC film suggested its usage as
a promising candidate for future optoelectronics characterization
techniques.

Synthesis of MgO nanoparticles by laser ablation and study of their physical and biological properties

Research Abstract

Magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles are among the most promising classes of nanomaterials
due to the fact that they have a rapid metabolism, are biocompatible, and are relatively lightweight.
For a considerable amount of time, these particular types of nanomaterials have been the most desired
substitute for hefty metallic substances in applications including photodynamic treatment and cancer
therapy. The primary objective of this research is to Look into the catalytic activity and toxicity of MgO
nanoparticles that have a variety of shapes. In order to conduct an analysis of the MgO that was created,
X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and UV-visible spectroscopy were used. Staphylococcus aureus
(S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) models that are clinically relevant were used in order to evaluate
the factors that are dependant on toxicity respectively. On the basis of the observation of the UV-vis spectra,
the highest absorbance was obtained, along with a peak absorption that was very noticeable. In order
to determine the band gap that corresponds to MgO nanoparticles, Tauc's figure was used.
