چکیده

Reactions of Si(NHMe)4 with ammonia are effectively catalysed by small ammonium triflate concentrations, and can be used to produce free-standing silicon imide gels. Firing at various temperatures produces amorphous or partially crystallised silicon imidonitride/nitride samples with high surface areas and low oxygen contents. The crystalline phase is entirely α-Si3N4 and structural similarities are observed between the amorphous and crystallised materials.

Preparation and Characterization of High Specific Surface Area γ-Alumina Nanoparticles Via Sol-Gel Method

In the present investigation, γ-alumina nanoparticles with particle sizes less than 10 nm, high specific surface area (351 m2/g), high pore volumes and relatively narrow pore sizes distribution was prepared via sol-gel method in presence of aluminum isopropoxide as an aluminum precursor, distilled water, acetic acid as hydrolysis rate controller and tert-butanol as solvent. They had meso ...

Synthesis and methane cracking activity of a silicon nitride supported vanadium nitride nanoparticle composite.

The co-ammonolysis of V(NMe2)4 and Si(NHMe)4 with ammonia in THF and in the presence of ammonium triflate ([NH4][CF3SO3]) leads to the formation of monolithic gels. Pyrolysing these gels produces mesoporous composite materials containing nanocrystalline VN and amorphous silicon imidonitride. Elemental mapping indicated a thorough distribution of VN with no evidence of large cluster segregation....

Solid-state synthesis of luminescent silicon nitride nanocrystals.

Silicon nitride nanocrystals (NCs) have been prepared via in situ nitridation of magnesium followed by a metathesis reaction with sol-gel derived silica particles. Highly luminescent, freestanding β-Si(3)N(4) NCs with complex surface chemistry dominated by Si-H and N-H moieties were isolated upon etching with hydrofluoric acid.

Development of sensors for direct detection of organophosphates. Part II: sol–gel modified field effect transistor with immobilized organophosphate hydrolase

pH-sensitive field effect transistors (FET) were modified with organophosphate hydrolase (OPH) and used for direct detection of organophosphate compounds. OPH is the organophosphate degrading gene product isolated from Pseudomonas diminuta. OPH was selected as an alternative to acetylcholinesterase, which requires inhibition mode sensor operation, enzyme regeneration before reuse, long sample i...
