Thesis Title:
Studies on Interionic Interactions of Some Tetra Alkyl Ammonium Halides in Mixed Solvents at Different Temperatures 

Inter-ionic interactions of Tetra-n-butylammonium bromide (TBAB), Tetra-n-propylammonium bromide (TPAB) and Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) with 1,3-Dioxolane(1,3-DO) and Tetrahydrofuran (THF) within the temperature range, T = 298.15 K to T = 313.15 K have been studied by combination of volumetric, viscometric, acoustic and UV absorption measurements. These values are used to study the effect of temperature on the ion solvent interactions. The experimental results of viscosity has been analysed by using Jones–Dole equation and the applicability was checked by Moulik Equation. The obtained viscosity B-coefficients was used to interpret the structure-making or structure breaking tendency of the complexes.

Thesis Title:
Facile Construction of Metal-organic Frameworks and Porous Organic Frameworks towards Wastewater Treatment and Nonlinear Optical Switching

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and porous organic frameworks (POFs) belong to a class of advanced synthetic porous framework materials gaining significant scientific momentum due to their predictive structural design and diverse practical applications. In this thesis, we emphasize on simple design, conventional, economical and facile synthesis of a variety of MOFs, COFs and POFs for size-selective dye adsorption.
