Preparation of gas-tight strontium-doped lanthanum cobaltate by an aqueous sol-gel process
نویسنده
چکیده
Gas-tight dense membranes of highly Sr-doped LaCoO, (such as the composition La,,, Sr 0,7 COO, chosen in this study) are difficult to prepare using usual synthesis processes. This report presents an aqueous sol-gel route using metal acetates as precursors to achieve this goal. Hydrogen peroxide and ammonia are added to the acetates precursor solution to obtain stable sol and xerogel, as well as a homogeneous powder after heat treatment. Thermal analysis and XRD show the presence of SrCO, and La,O, when the heat treatment temperature of the xerogel is lower than 950 “C. Single phase of cubic perovskite La,,,Sr,,,CoO, can be obtained after treatment at above 1000 “C. Sintering the cold pressed green compact at above 1100 “C may result in gas-tight samples. It is found that the sintering temperature has a minor influence on the oxygen permeability of a gas-tight membrane.

Preparation and Characterization of High-Temperature Thermally Stable Alumina Composite Membrane
A crackand pinhole-free composite membrane consisting of an a-alumina support and a modified y-alumina top layer which is thermally stable up to 1100°C was prepared by the sol-gel method. The supported thermally stable top layer was made by dipcoating the support with a boehmite sol doped with lanthanum nitrate. The temperature effects on the microstructure of the (supported and unsupported) La...

Two methods for the preparation of semiconductor doped sol-gel films, for applications in nonlinear optics, have been studied and compared. In the first, porous films are spun from sols containing the cation precursor, and then reacted with H$S gas, and in the second, the cation is adsorbed onto the pore surfaces of passive films from aqueous solution before the gas reaction. Extensive results ...
