The fabrication of materials and chemical synthesis depend substantially on solvents. They are strategic part of the green chemistry framework. In accordance with green chemistry, solvents need to qualify certain parameters, such as biodegradability, non-toxicity, non-flammability, recyclability & reusability, low cost etc. to be termed as green solvents. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are emerging as... more

This study evaluates the corrosion behavior of carbon steel in acidic medium and seawater in the presence of natural plant extracts derived from pomegranate peels and fig leaves as environmentally friendly corrosion inhibitors. The weight loss technique was employed to determine the corrosion rate and inhibition efficiency after an immersion period of 624 h, in... more

To control the proliferation of microorganisms and its associated risks, protective surface coatings are being developed. Among the most promising solutions is the incorporation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) into paint formulations. Traditional physical and chemical nanoparticles synthesis pose health and environmental risks. The concept of “green nanoparticles” refers to the synthesis of nanoparticles using environmentally... more
