Abstract: A thermochromic ink and, particularly, to a thermochromic ink produced by combining an anthocyanidin extract with alginate. The thermochromic ink can be used for authentication purposes produced by combining an anthocyanidin (ACYD)-based Brassica oleracea L. var. capitata extract with an alginate (ALG). To increase the anthocyanidin/alginate ink stability, a mordant (ferrous sulfate) can be used to link the anthocyanidin biomolecules with the alginate.

Abstract: A photochromic material can include nanoparticles of rare-earth activated strontium aluminate (NRESA) embedded into polylactic acid (PLA). In some embodiments, the photochromic material may be transparent. In other embodiments, the photochromic material may be scratch resistant.

The photochromic material may exhibit a green coloration after exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light. The NRESA may have a diameter of about 10 nm to about 15 nm. The electrospun photoluminescent nanofibrous film may have a fiber diameter of about 50 nm to about 200 nm.

Abstract: A photochromic material can include nanoparticles of lanthanide-activated strontium aluminate (NLSA) embedded into polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The PET may further include electrospun polypropylene nanofibers (PPNF) incorporated therein. In some embodiments, the photochromic material may be transparent. In other embodiments, the photochromic material may be scratch resistant. In some embodiments, the photochromic material may be configured to form concrete. In still other embodiments, the photochromic material may be configured to form windows. The electrospun polypropylene nanofibers may be a roughening agent in the PET. The photochromic material may exhibit a green coloration after exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light. The NLSA may have a diameter of about 80 nm to about 120 nm. The PPNF may have a diameter of about 75 nm to about 180 nm. The photochromic material may be superhydrophobic.

Abstract: Novel organoselenium selective ligands are presented and designed to determine metal ions in a sample. These ligands are used as complexing agents in a dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction procedure of copper and zinc ions. The procedure has a shortened extraction time, minimal organic solvent types, and lower amounts of solvents, as well as easy operation and high enrichment efficiency.

Abstract: The acid-induced steel corrosion inhibitor based on rotten eggs provides a corrosion inhibitor that is biodegradable, has low toxicity, is water-soluble, easily produced, and is low-cost through the use of waste material, namely, white eggs (EWs). The corrosion inhibitor is added to a corrosive medium in an aqueous medium to protect the metal surfaces and steel interfaces on metal production equipment, such as pumps, tubing, and casing. The corrosion inhibitor based on rotten white eggs is loaded with metal nanoparticles (EWMNPs). The eco-friendly less destructive corrosion inhibitors based on metal nanoparticles synthesized with rotten white eggs are efficient to protect steel from corrosion, while still dissolving in oil streams produced without or with salt water and being soluble in acidic mediums containing chlorides. The corrosion inhibitors have low toxicity to marine life when discharged into the ocean, thereby protecting the marine life, particularly near the system's drain.
