A methodology to engineer roughened inorganic nanostructures on zeolites by deposition and growth of metal hydroxides is reported. Pure-silica (PS) MFI and (aluminosilicate) LTA zeolite crystals are treated by solvothermal methods to deposit inorganic hydroxide (e.g., Mg(OH)2) coatings with nanoscale roughened features on the crystal surfaces in a controlled manner. Detailed characterization of...

zinc (ⅱ) tricarboxylate (zn-btc) with metal-organic framework (mof) has been synthesized for the first time under solvothermal conditions and has been tested as an adsorbent for methane and carbon dioxide at standard temperature and pressure. the adsorbent was characterized by means of x-ray diffraction(xrd), brunauer-emmet-teller (bet), fourier transform infrared (ft-ir) and scanning electron ...

I report a facile wet-chemical method for the synthesis of one-dimensional copper hydroxide nitrate nanostructures in 2-propanol under solvothermal conditions. Single-crystalline nearly monodispersed copper hydroxide nitrate nanorods and nanobelts with selected breadths in the range of 100 nm to 1 μm have been successfully prepared by a solvothermal method through controlling the experimental p...

In this work we present the synthesis and characterization of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs), which were structurally and magnetically characterized. The use of iron salts and an organic acid (l-serine or ascorbic acid) as precursors under solvothermal conditions yielded these coated IONPs. The powder X-ray diffraction pattern of FeO-1 and FeO-2 is consistent with hematite (a-Fe2O3) and hemat...

Herein, we report the synthesis of metallic molybdenum microspheres and hierarchical MoS2 nanostructures by facile template-free solvothermal and hydrothermal approach, respectively. The morphological transition of the Mo microspheres to hierarchical MoS2 nanoflower architectures is observed to be accomplished with change in solvent from ethylenediamine to water. The resultant marigold flower-l...

Highly crystalline ZnO nanoparticles with a pure phase and raspberry-like structure were synthesized using three different techniques (glycol-solvothermal, low-temperature solvothermal, coprecipitation methods). Physisorption analysis field emission scanning electron microscopy confirmed the large specific surface area of mesoporous–macroporous due to interstices aggregated agglomerated seconda...

objective(s): according to the unique properties of magnetic nanoparticles, nickel metal-organic frameworks (mof) was synthesized successfully by ultrasound irradiation. metal-organic frameworks (mofs) are organic–inorganic hybrid extended networks that are constructed via covalent linkages between metal ions/metal clusters and organic ligands called a linker. materials and methods: the nanopar...

Ultrathin V2O5 nanosheets were successfully prepared through supercritical solvothermal reaction followed by annealing treatment. The formation of ultrathin nanosheets is owing to Ostwald ripening and the effect of supercritical fluids. As cathode material for lithium batteries, the ultrathin V2O5 nanosheets exhibit a capacity of 108 mA h g(-1) at a high rate of up to 10 C at 2.4-4 V and excell...
