Abstract:

Highly sinterable alumina nano-powders have been synthesized by a sol-gel combustion method with glycine asfuel. The preparation involved the thermal decomposition of a chelating agent (fuel)-nitrate gel and theformation of amorphous precursors. The nanopowders calcined at 1100°C were characterized by X-ray powderdiffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). It was found that the chelating agent and fuelused had a significant influence on the average grain size of a-A1203 nanopowder. The rate of combustionreaction between chelating agent (fuel) and nitrate was responsible for the growth of the grain.

Calcium doped nickel ferrite powders prepared by sol-gel combustion method

Calcium doped nickel ferrite powders have been prepared by sol-gel combustion technique. Metal nitrates, such as calcium nitrate, nickel nitrate and ferric nitrate, were used as the source materials and citric acid and polyvinyl alcohol were used as the burning agent and agglomeration reducing agent, respectively. The average crystallite size of the prepared ferrite was in the order of ~70- 92 ...

Synthesis and characterization of Alumina (Al2O3) nanoparticles prepared by simple sol-gel method

Alumina is one of the most widely used ceramic materials as catalysts, catalyst supports and absorbents, and also wear resistant coating. This study focused on fabricating and characterizing of alumina ceramic nanoparticles fabricated using new and simple sol-gel method. Aluminium oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles were synthesized by iron (III) nitrate 9-hydrate as precursor. Physicochemical properti...
