Hydrothermal chimneys are striking, characteristic features of marine hydrothermal vents. These chimneys are dynamic environments occupied by a diversity of microbes whose distribution is typically concordant with mineralogy and temperature. Recent studies indicate that these chimney assemblages are conductive and present the possibility that microbial extracellular electron transfer may occur ...

The poor hydrothermal stability of germanosilicate zeolites greatly retards their industrial application. Herein, we present a direct synthesis of Ge-containing IWR zeolites with outstanding hydrothermal stability. A simple quaternary ammonium cation, diethyldimethylammonium, was used as the structure-directing agent for the first time. The structure and chemical composition of the framework wa...

Starting from Ni-Co-Mn carbonate nanoparticles prepared by microreaction technology, uniform spherical particles of Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3CO3 with a size of 3–4 μm were obtained by a controllable hydrothermal conversion with the addition of (NH4)2CO3. Based on characterizations on the evolution of morphology and composition with hydrothermal treatment time, we clarified the mechanism of this novel met...

A new approach to enhancing proton conductivity of ceramics is demonstrated by aligning proton conductive pathways and eliminating resistive grain boundaries. Hydroxyapatite (HAP) membranes are synthesized by multistage crystallization onto palladium. The synthesis involves three steps: electrochemical deposition of HAP seeds, secondary hydrothermal crystallization onto the seed layer to promot...

In this study, zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorod arrays were synthesized using a simple hydrothermal reaction on ZnO seeds/n-silicon substrate. Several parameters were studied, including the heat-treatment temperature to produce ZnO seeds, zinc nitrate concentration, pH of hydrothermal reaction solution, and hydrothermal reaction time. The optimum heat-treatment temperature to produce uniform nanosized ...
