A novel synthetic route for magnesium aluminate (MgAl2O4) nanoparticles using sol–gel auto combustion method and their photocatalytic properties

Synthesis of CeVO4 nanoparticles using sol-gel auto combustion method and their antifungal activity

Cerium orthovanadate nanoparticles (CeVO4 NPs) were fabricated using urea-assisted facile sol-gel auto combustion method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern revealed the crystal planes and size of synthesized CeVO4 NPs. The morphological shape and the crystalline nature of the NPs were examined by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) affir...

A simple solution combustion route for the preparation of metal-doped TiO2 nanoparticles and their photocatalytic degradation properties.

In this paper, we report the successful synthesis of metal ion-doped TiO(2) nanoparticles via a simple solution combustion method employing a mixture of ethanol and ethyleneglycol (v/v = 30/20) as the solvent, tetra-n-butyl titanate [Ti(OC(4)H(9))(4), TBOT] as the titanium source and oxygen gas in the atmosphere as the oxygen source, in the presence of small amounts of metal ions such as Cu(2+)...

Physical and magnetic properties of highly aluminum doped strontium ferrite nanoparticles prepared by auto-combustion route

Highly Al3þ ion doped nanocrystalline SrFe12 xAlxO19 (0rxr12), were prepared by the auto-combustion method and heat treated in air at 1100 1C for 12 h. The phase identification of the powders performed using x-ray diffraction show presence of high-purity hexaferrite phase and absence of any secondary phases. With Al3þ doping, the lattice parameters decrease due to smaller Al3þ ion replacing Fe3...

Efficient Synthesis of CeVO4 Nanoparticles Using Combustion Route and Their Antibacterial Activity

CeVO4 (Cerium orthovanadate) nanoparticles were synthesized by urea-assisted simple and efficient combustion method. Phase formations of synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by thermogravimetric-differential thermal analyzer (TG-DTA). X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern revealed the crystal planes and size of synthesized CeVO4 nanoparticles. The average size, morphological shape and the cry...
