nanostructured alumina thin films were coated on stainless steel by sol-gel dip coating method. in order to prevent crack formation, al2o3 films were kept in a solvent bath immediately after coating to reduce the rate of drying. effects of calcination temperature and withdrawal speed on structural properties were analyzed using xrd and sem. topography and thickness of coatings were analyzed by ...

the composite powders of barium-magnesium ferrite were prepared using sol-gel auto-combustion and microwave methods. the crystal structure and the shape of nanocomposites have been compared. x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscope (sem) and vibrating sample magnetometer (vsm) were used to investigate the structural, morphological and magnetic properties of nanopowder. the formatio...

in this article, hybrid organic-inorganic materials were prepared by free radical copolymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (hema) and 3-methacryloxy-propyltrimethoxysilane (mptms) via sol-gel process. the methoxysilane-containing copolymer precursors were synthesized at different compositions. these copolymer precursors were then hydrolyzed and condensed to produce phema-sio2 nanocomposi...

the austenitic stainless steel (ss) has been used as a material for  building  ultra  high  vacuum  (uhv)  chamber.  recently significant  efforts  have  been  concerned  a  comparing  the standard  cleaned  for  ultra  high  vacuum,  passivity  stainless. in  this work austenitic  nanocomposites were  synthesize by sol-  gel method. the morphologies  and  topographies  of  the samples  have  b...

the dried nitrate-urea gels exhibit the combination of autoicatatric combustion behavior and ultrasonic, whichcan be used to synthesize the nanocatalyst ferrite powders. cu and ni unites nanocatalyst powders sithcomposition of caned], and nife204 were synthesized by a sol-gel auto catalnic combustion process. themolar ratio between metal ions and urea was 11.2. the sob gel process was done at 8...

The implications of organically-modified silica-based materials in electrochemical science is reviewed along with some selected recent trends in the field of functionalized and sol–gel silica electrochemistry. These recent trends include the electro-assisted generation of organosilica films on solid electrode surfaces, the preparation and applications of sol–gel derived composite (carbon, gold,...

We report on the fabrication and characterization of thick UV-patternable hybrid sol-gel films by spin coating using a modified sol-gel process. Thick coating of 25 microns with crack-free surface can be produced by one spin coating step. Thick layers of more than 100 μm can be obtained with a multi-coating process. Characterization using different techniques including optical microscope and at...

Polvos cerámicos de Sm2O3 dopados y mezclados con europio se obtuvieron a partir la formación cloruros samario través ruta sol-gel citrato. Este trabajo reporta influencia los iones en las propiedades estructurales luminiscentes cerámicas Sm2O3:Eu3+ (coordenadas CIE) variando el Eu3+ 10 50% mol. Las características químicas, morfológicas fueron establecidas por FTIR XRD, revelando presencia ban...
