In this article the author asserts that understanding the rise of political Islam at the world's stage and IR generally can be genealogically traced to two interrelated developments: the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) in Egypt since 1928 as a social and political movement against the growing Western influence in the Islamic World after the collapse of the ottoman empire; and the development of the post-World War II IR theories, and practices which provided the basis of the political, military, and security doctrines of the United States and its allies which proved its lack of reliability and validity, particularly as related to the Muslim World, and the role of religion within the Muslim states and place of religion in global politics.展开更多

Both ex situ and in situ mi- croscope FTIR spectroscopy (MFFIRS) in a reflection configuration were employed to investigate interfacial processes of the graphite thin film anodes in lithium-ion batteries. A solid electrolyte interphase layer (SEI layer) was formed on the cycled graphite thin film anode. Ex situ MFTIRS revealed that the main components of the SEI layer on cycled graphite film anodes in 1 tool L 1 LiPF6/ethylene carbonate + dimethyl carbonate (1:1) are alkyl lithium carbonates (ROCOzLi). The desolvation process on graphite anodes during the initial intercalation of lithium ion with graphite was also observed and analyzed by in situ MFTIRS.展开更多

In this study, nano-sulfonated graphene (SGE) was used as a washing agent to evaluate different processing (washing) parameters for the ectopic leaching removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from a coking plant soil. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to analyze the characteristics of the SGE tested. The results showed that SGE had a strong adsorption capacity for PAHs through the role of π-π, H-π, and anion-π interactions. The washing parameters, an SGE concentration of 2000 mg L-1, a liquid/soil (L/S) ratio of 10:1, and 4 cycles of successive washing, were set to arrive to the optimum condition for achieving more than 80% of PAH removal. Under the optimum condition, the PAH removal rate decreased with increasing ring numbers. After one washing cycle at SGE concentration of 2000 mg L-1 and L/S ratio of 10:1, the PAH removal rate of the SCE tested was much higher than that of Tween 80 (TW80) or methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MCD) (P 〈 0.01). Therefore, SGE is a promising material for the nanoremediation of PAH-contaminated soils.展开更多
