The influence of magnetic field is explored by applying it perpendicularly to the disc rotation. The Brownian motion and thermophoresis features are incorporated due to nanoparticles utilizing the Buongiorno model. Further, the influence of nonlinear thermal radiation on the heat transfer mechanism is investigated in view of the Rosseland approximation model. The mass transfer analysis is made by employing the binary chemical reaction with activation energy. Similarity hypotheses are used to facilitate the solution of governing momentum, energy, and concentration equations. The transformed nonlinear equations are solved numerically by using the BVP MIDRICH scheme in the MAPLE software for visualizing the impact of governing parameters graphically and numerically. The major outcomes of the present analysis reveal that the fluid temperature is enhanced with growing radiation parameter. The solute concentration is an increasing function of the activation energy parameter. Moreover, the reaction rate diminishes the solute concentration. %8 2020-03-05
