A flow of He mixed with air was used to produce the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD), at the tip of the torch, using pulsed electric excitation at 12 kV. The torch, operated at a power of 750 mW/mm², was seen to completely degrade the aqueous solutions of the pollutants namely methylene blue (MB), methyl orange (MO) and rhodamine-B (RB), at around 10⁻⁴ M concentrations, the concentration of polluants is one order higher than of routinely used heterogeneous photocatalytic reactions, within 10 min of irradiation time at room temperature. UV Visible spectra of the organic dye molecules, monitored after different intervals of plasma-irradiation, ranging between 1 and 10 min, have been used as tools to quantify their sequential degradation. Further, instead of using He, only air was used to form plasma plume and used for degradation of organic dye which follow similar trend as that of He plasma. Further, Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectroscopy (LCMS) technique has been used to understand degradation pathway of methylene blue (MB) as a representative case. Total organic carbon (TOC) measurements indicates significant decrease in its content as a function of duration of plasma exposure onto methylene blue as a representative case. Toxicity studies were carried out onto Gram negative Escherichia coli. This indicated that methylene blue, without plasma treatment, shows growth inhibition, whereas with plasma treatment no inhibition was observed.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.698</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Raut, Suyog A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mutadak, Pallavi R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kumar, Shiv</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kanhe, Nilesh S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Huprikar, Sameer</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pol, Harshawardhan V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phase, Deodatta M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhoraskar, Sudha V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mathe, Vikas L.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Single step, phase controlled, large scale synthesis of ferrimagnetic iron oxide polymorph nanoparticles by thermal plasma route and their rheological properties</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Iron oxide</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">magnetic properties</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nano-crystalline materials</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rheological properties</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Thermal plasma</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MAR 1</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">449</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">232-242</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;In this paper we report single step large scale synthesis of highly crystalline iron oxide nanoparticles viz. magnetite (Fe3O4) and maghemite (gamma-Fe2O3) via gas phase condensation process, where micron sized iron metal powder was used as a precursor. Selective phases of iron oxide were obtained by variation of gas flow rate of oxygen and hence partial pressure of oxygen inside the plasma reactor. Most of the particles were found to possesses average crystallite size of about 20-30 nm. The DC magnetization curves recorded indicate almost super-paramagnetic nature of the iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles. Further, iron oxide nanoparticles were analyzed using Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Mossbauer spectroscopy. In order to explore the feasibility of these nanoparticles for magnetic damper application, rheological studies have been carried out and compared with commercially available Carbonyl Iron (CI) particles. The nanoparticles obtained by thermal plasma route show improved dispersion which is useful for rheological applications. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V.
