Application


  • Different solvents and organic modifiers for the control of crystallographic parameters in nano-crystallite hydroxyapatite for amplification of photocatalytic activity.: This study demonstrates how isopropyl alcohol, used as a solvent, can control the structural properties of hydroxyapatite nanocrystals, enhancing their photocatalytic performance in environmental applications (Kawsar et al., 2024).

  • Preparation of a sustainable magnetic sorbent for the extraction and preconcentration of progestogens in natural water samples.: The study utilizes isopropyl alcohol in the synthesis of a novel, environmentally friendly sorbent for water purification processes, addressing the crucial need for removing contaminants from water (Aguinaga Martínez et al., 2024).

  • Rational synthesis of methylsilsesquioxane aerogels addressing thermal load and compression recovery issues in Li-ion batteries.: This research highlights the use of isopropyl alcohol in synthesizing advanced materials that improve the safety and efficiency of lithium-ion batteries, a critical component for sustainable energy solutions (Li et al., 2024).
