PREPARATION OF ORGANIC-INORGANIC COMPOSITE MATERIALS USING SOL-GEL TECHNOLOGY
Authors: M.P.Azizova, M.M.Agahuseynova M.P.Azizova, M.M.Agahuseynova
Published: January 2025

This article reviews the principles of hydrolytic polycondensation of tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) in alkaline media. Depending on the concentration of tetramethoxysilane, both nanoscale mono-disperse SiO2 particles and monolithic samples of xerogels were synthesized. Pyridine derivatives, representatives of several chemically and thermally stable aromatics, which perform the function of catalysts, were selected for the work. During the sol-gel process of hydrolysis of tetramethox-ysilane and the polycondensation of the compounds formed with the presence of 4-(dimethylamino)-pyridine as a catalyst, a linear increase in the pKa of the conjugate acid to 9.70 was observed. Since the particles formed in an alkaline environment are negatively charged and repel each other, their growth occurs by the condensation mechanism due to the dissolution of smaller particles.
Heating the sol-gel system for 30 minutes does not increase the particle size, but brings the gela-tion point closer. Thus, a small amount of catalyst leads to the formation of a group of particles with a small diameter and a tendency to polycondensate, but a larger amount of catalyst concen-trationcausing the formation of very large particles. The physico-chemical properties of the synthe-sized particles were determined. The dimensions of the processed samples were recorded using a scanning electron microscope (SEM).
Keywords: Sol-gel, hydrolysis, polycondensation, tetramethoxysilane, xerogel, pKa, catalyst, SEM.

Yüksəkmolekullu birləşmələr və onlar əsasında metaltərkibli nanokompozitlər mikro- və nano-elektronika üçün yeni nəsil unikal materialların, işığa həssas nanoölçülü sistemlərin, optoelektron nanosensorların, effektiv və seçici katalizatorların, tibbi-bioloji təyinatlı nanomaterialların yaradıl-ması üçün geniş və məqsədyönlü şəkildə istifadə olunurlar. Yeni effektiv kompleks materiallarda müasir innovasiyalı texnologiyaların artan tələbatları praktiki qiymətli xassələr ilə yeni çoxfunksiyalı polimer nanomaterialların işlənib hazırlanması və tədqiq edilməsinin aktuallığı və perspektivliyini şərtləndirir. Ruteniumun 2,2  bipiridil və 1,10 – fenantrolinlə kompleksləri maraqlı fotofiziki, fotokimyəvi və elektrokimyəvi xasələrə həmçinin yüksək termiki (4000C-yə qədər) və kimyəvi stabilliyə malikdir (qatı sulfat turşusu və 50% qələvi məhluluna qarşı inertdirlər). Bu strukturlara qarşı əlavə maraq onların katalizator kimi görünən işığın təsirindən suyun element-lərə parçalan-masında istifadəsi mümkünlüyüdürMatrissa qismində müxtəlif üzvi polimerlərdən istifadə oluna bilər – polimetakrilatlar, poliuretanlar, poliamidlər, poliimidlər, polibenzimidazollar və s. Təəssüf ki, üzvi matrissalar bir sıra çatışmazlıqlara malikdir: termiki stabilliyin azlığı, alınan materialda kompleksin molekullarının bəradər paylanması və həm də onlar Ru(II) kompleksinin qatılığının 1%-dən artıq olmaqla hibridlərin sintezinə imkan vermir. Bu problemin həlli üzvi polim-erin qeyri-üzvi matrissa – SiO2 ilə (tetraalkoksisilanların zol-gel metodu ilə hidrolizi vasitəsilə sin-tez edilən və sonra alınan birləşmələrin polikondensasiyası ilə əldə edilən) əvəz olunması ilə bağlıdırr. İm olunan işdə göstərilən komplekslərin sintezi, onların zol-gel metodu ilə sintez edilən SiO2 matrissasına yeridilməsi və alınan nanohibrid materiallarının fiziki-mexaniki və optik xassələri öyrənilmşdir. Bu zaman əsas məsələ kompozitlərin monolit nümunələr şəklində alınması olmuşdur. Sintez olunmuş kompozit nümunələr monolit şəklndə alınmış və İQ, NMR, EUS, element analizi, lyüminisensiya metodlarla tədqiq edilmişdir.

Confidence Intervals for the Difference between Two Coefficients of Variation of the delta-Birnbaum-Saunders Distributions
Authors: Janthasuwan Usanee , Niwitpong Sa-Aat , Niwitpong Suparat
Published: January 2025

The delta-Birnbaum-Saunders distribution is a relatively novel concept that combines the Birnbaum-Saunders with the binomial distributions. As a result, datasets containing both positive and zero values conform well with this distribution, making it particularly intriguing. Additionally, coefficients of variation are among the important statistics for comparing the dispersion of data. Therefore, there is an interest in proposing methods for constructing confidence intervals, which play a crucial role in statistical inference for the difference between two coefficients of variation in delta-Birnbaum-Saunders distributions. There are four methods proposed: the method of variance estimates recovery, the bootstrap confidence interval, the generalized confidence interval based on the variance stabilized transformation, and the generalized confidence interval based on the Wilson score method. All the methods are compared in terms of performance using coverage probability and average width through Monte Carlo simulations. The simulation results show that the bootstrap confidence interval performs similarly to the method of variance estimate recovery, except in cases where the shape parameter is large. In addition, it is shown that the generalized confidence interval based on variance stabilized transformation and the generalized confidence interval based on the Wilson score method yield similar results and demonstrate the highest efficiency compared to other methods.

У статті викладено результати вивчення особливостей формування продуктивності нагідок лікарських (Calendula officinalis L.) сорту «Сонячна красуня» та обґрунтування прийомів отримання високої врожайності насіння з оптимальними показниками якості. Встановлено, що від застосування регулятора росту рослин Стимпо схожість підвищилася на 7%, Регопланту – на 3%, порівняно з контрольним варіантом. Також за роки досліджень ефективність регуляторів підвищувалася від першого строку сівби до третього. У результаті аналізу структури врожаю відзначено, що кількість насіннєвих кошиків на одному метрі змінювалася за роками і залежала від досліджуваних факторів. Найбільшу їх кількість сформовано в середньому у 2022 році (328,1 шт.), найменшу – у 2023 році (258,3 шт.). Відзначено тенденцію до збільшення кількості кошиків на одиницю площі за використання регуляторів росту. Обробка насіння і вегетуючих рослин препаратом Стимпо забезпечила надбавку щодо контролю 54,6 шт., а препаратом Регоплант – 30,2 шт. на 1 м2. Крім цього, відзначено, що маса насіння з одиниці площі від першого строку сівби до третього зменшується, але від застосування препарату Стимпо збільшується на 34,8 г г/м2, Регопланту – на 19,9 г/м2. Максимальну масу насіння отримано за використання регулятора росту Стимпо у перший строк сівби – 139,4 г/м2, мінімальну – у контролі за третього строку сівби – 84,7 г/м2. Встановлено, що строки сівби мали істотний вплив на вихід кондиційного насіння. Так, вихід кондиційного насіння з гектара за першого строку сівби становив 991 кг, що на 177 кг (18%) більше, ніж за другого і на 211 кг (22%) більше, ніж за третього строку сівби. Регулятори росту (незалежно від інших факторів) істотно збільшували вихід насіння, при цьому від застосування препарату Стимпо він був вищим на 168 кг/га, а Регопланту – на 159 кг/га. Однак ефективність препаратів була вищою за першого та другого строків сівби. Прибавка до контролю за першого строку сівби від використання регулятора росту Стимпо становила 241,0 кг/га, Регопланту – 169,5 кг/га, за третього строку – 241,5 кг/га та 166,5 кг/га відповідно. Обробка посівів нагідок лікарських сорту «Сонячна красуня» десикантом Спека збільшувала вихід кондиційного насіння до 84,2% проти 74,4% на контролі.

The advancement of artificial intelligence technology, especially voice cloning, opens up opportunities for innovation while also presenting new risks in digital marketing. This study explores the potential for misuse of this technology to manipulate consumers through false promotions, using a legal and management perspective. Using a normative legal approach and literature study, this study analyzes regulations in Indonesia, such as the Information and Electronic Transactions Law, the Consumer Protection Law, and the Personal Data Protection Law, and compares them with practices in other countries. The results of the study indicate that regulations in Indonesia are not yet adequate to handle the complexity of voice cloning misuse, especially in consumer and personal data protection. Therefore, companies are advised to adopt strategies such as utilizing detection technology, increasing consumer digital literacy, and implementing stronger internal policies. This study highlights the importance of updating regulations that are more responsive to technological developments, including voice cloning. In addition, cross-sectoral collaboration between the government, industry players, and the community is key to protecting consumers while utilizing the potential of voice cloning technology responsibly and ethically.

Analysis of Body Temperature in Patients with Trauma Visiting a Local Emergency Medical Center during the SARS-CoV-2 Outbreak
Authors: Min Hana , Kim* Gun Bea
Published: January 2025

Background: The study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of body temperature monitoring as a screening tool for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in an emergency department from January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2020. A total of 5,502 out of 9,205 patients with trauma during the pre-pandemic period and 3703 out of 9205 during the pandemic period (age ≧ 18 years old) were enrolled in the study. Data collected included sex, age, time of visit, initial and follow-up BT, Korean Triage and Acuity Scale (KTAS) score, disposition results, time of disposition, time of the first imaging study, and SARS-CoV-2 test results. Patients were divided into two groups based on their body temperature.

Results: During the pandemic period, three out of 832 patients with a body temperature below 37.5°C tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 via polymerase chain reaction, while none of the 342 patients with a body temperature above 37.5°C tested positive negative. However, this was statistically insignificant. Patients with a body temperature over 37.5°C had to wait significantly longer to see a doctor, undergo imaging studies, and receive disposition, especially in non-major trauma cases. Follow-up body temperatures were significantly lower except in KTAS 1- and ICU-admitted patients.

 The usefulness of body temperature as a screening tool for trauma patients in the emergency department during the pandemic period is limited and could have detrimental effects on emergency department crowding.
