Abstract The main reason for the formation of nano-biotechnology is due to the penetration of nanotechnology in the biological field, nanotechnology research center is the study of nano-drug carrier. Nano-drug system targeted drug delivery to achieve drug release, increase the insoluble drugs and peptide drug bio-efficiency, reduce the toxicity and application of drugs and other aspects of the development of good prospects, and thus become one of the key research in recent years’ field. Synthesis and application of nanometer drug carriers this review is presented in recent years and its application to provide a comprehensive basis for the treatment process. Describes the nature and preparation of nano-drug carrier methods, in recent years, people have been widely concerned by scholars. Compared with the nano-drug delivery, the general pharmaceutical cannot have to extend the role of drugs, strong efficacy, and the advantages of small drug response. Nano-materials, the specific surface area, surface activity, high catalytic efficiency, surface active center, adsorption capacity and other characteristics, which has many excellent features and new features.

Abstract The nylon 66/nano-CaCO3 composites were prepared by melt blending on a twin-screw extruder. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), polarized light microscopy (PLM), thermal loss (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) The effects of nanometer calcium carbonate on the polycrystalline behavior and thermal properties of nylon 66/nano CaCO3 composites were investigated. The results show that the nanometer calcium carbonate particles are dispersed in the nylon 66 matrix and exist in the form of aggregates. The nanometer calcium carbonate has the effect of heterogeneous nucleation, which can reduce the size of the spherules. The decomposition temperature of the nylon 66 is 400 ℃, the addition of nano-CaCO3 to reduce the decomposition temperature. At the same time, DSC test showed that the β-crystalline form in the material reduced the melting temperature of the material. The addition of nano-CaCO3 in the nylon 66 matrix resulted in the decrease of the crystallization temperature and the increase of the half-height width of the endothermic peak. The lower the crystallization temperature, the wider the crystallization temperature range.

Abstract Fe3+-doped nano-TiO2 powders were prepared by sol-gel method. The photocatalytic activity of Fe3+-doped TiO2 nanoparticles was studied by using UV lamp as light source and methylene blue as degradation target. The photocatalytic activity of Fe3+-doped TiO2 was studied by degradation of 4L methylene blue solution with initial concentration of 10mg · L - 1. The results show that the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 can be improved by the addition of Fe3+. When the molar ratio of Fe3+ is 0.5-1%, the calcination temperature is 500 ℃. The photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue is the best.

Abstract With the progress of science and technology, the research and development of silver nanoparticles has also developed. This paper attempts to prepare a silver nanoparticle by electrolyzing AgNO3 solution with electrochemical reduction method and citric acid as a complexing agent in a certain current and time. The crystal morphology and sample purity of silver nanoparticles were analyzed by X-ray diffractometer. The crystal structure of the nanoparticles was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The crystal structure of the nanoparticles was analyzed by X-ray diffraction. The particle size distribution of the particles was in the range of 125-199 nm, and the carbon paste electrode was modified with the prepared silver nanoparticles. The electrocatalytic activity of the carbon paste electrode was preliminarily explored.

Abstract Lead sulfide (PbS) is an important IV-VI semiconductor material with narrow bandwidth and wide wave width, which attracts people's attention. Nano-level PbS has many novel optoelectronic properties and has a wide range of applications in the field of optoelectronics, such as infrared optoelectronic devices, photovoltaic devices, light-emitting devices and display devices. In this paper, Pbs is produced by solvent thermal method by using lead acetate as lead source, sulfur power as sulfur source, ethylene glycol as solvent, and acetic acid to provide acidic environment. The reaction acidity, type of lead source, amount of sulfur source and other aspects will be explored. The products obtained under different conditions were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that PbS produced at 140°C for 24 hours, using 14mL ethylene glycol and 1.2mL acetic acid has the best morphology. It has a non-planar six-arm symmetrical structure. Finally, we prepare the lead sulfide composite Ni/PbS, and characterized it.
