In the present paper, nanometer scale hydroxyapatite powders with a rod-like shape, were prepared using combined ultrasonic and microwave heating-based method. Subsequent annealing of as-synthesized at 800 ℃ for 2 h produced nanoparticles rectangular granular morphology. The particles characterized X-ray diffraction Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy methods. Also, nanoparticle ...

Abstract Herein, we report, for the first time, influence of state spin Cr 3+ ions on structure and magnetic behavior LaFe 1−x x O 3 (0.0 < 0.5) perovskite crystal structures to improve their properties memory storage magneto-optical application potential. A series nanocrystals was prepared using citrate-nitrate auto-combustion route. The morphology nanostructures emphasized X-ray diffractio...

A cryptomelane K-OMS-2 model catalyst of a well-defined nanorod morphology, dominated by the (100) and (110) planes, was synthesized, thoroughly examined means XRD, Raman, XPS, XAS, TEM/EDX/SAED, computed X-ray microtomography techniques. The oxidation performance elucidated in tight (TC) loose (LC) contact modes using isotopic 18O2/16O2 mixtures various compositions. simple methodology disenta...

The gas-phase loading of [Zn4O(bdc)3] (MOF-5; bdc = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) with the volatile compound [Ru(cod)(cot)] (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene, cot = 1,3,5-cyclooctatriene) was followed by solid-state (13)C magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy. Subsequent hydrogenolysis of the adsorbed complex inside the porous structure of MOF-5 at 3 bar and 150 degrees C was performed, yielding ruth...

Background: Cosmetic talcum powder products have been used for decades. The inhalation of talc may cause lung fibrosis in the form of granulomatose nodules called talcosis. Exposure to talc has also been suggested as a causative factor in the development of ovarian carcinomas, gynecological tumors, and mesothelioma. Purpose: To investigate one historic brand of cosmetic talcum powder associated...

The xFe2O3/yBiOCl composites (xFe/yBi, x/y = 0/100, 5/100, 10/100, 20/100, 30/100 and 40/100 molar ratios) are prepared for the first time through an in situ hydrolysis method under hydrothermal conditions. The samples are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), selected area electron diffraction (SA...

Silver nanowires (Ag-NWs) were obtained using microwave-assisted hydrothermal method (MAH). The main advantage of the method is its high NWs production which is greater than 90%. It is also easy, fast, and highly reproducible process. One of the drawbacks presented so far in the synthesis of nanostructures by polyol path is the high temperature used in the process, which is superior than the bo...

In this work, a reaction coupling self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (RC-SHS) method was developed for the in situ controlled synthesis of novel, high activity TiB2/(TiB2-TiN) hierarchical/heterostructured nanocomposites using TiO2, Mg, B2O3, KBH4 and NH4NO3 as raw materials. The as-synthesized samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM)...

We have developed a new green chemical approach for the shape-controlled synthesis of single-crystalline hematite nanocrystals in aqueous medium. FESEM, HRTEM and SAED techniques were used to determine the morphology and crystallographic orientations of each nanocrystal and its exposed facets. PXRD and HRTEM techniques revealed that the nanocrystals are single crystalline in nature; twins and s...

A simple and mild wet-chemical approach was developed for the synthesis of one-dimensional (1D) In(OH)(3) nanostructures. By calcining the 1D In(OH)(3) nanocrystals in air at 250 degrees C, 1D In(2)O(3) nanocrystals with the same morphology were obtained. TEM results show that both 1D In(OH)(3) and 1D In(2)O(3) are composed of uniform nanotube bundles. SAED and XRD patterns indicate that 1D In(...
