In this study, TiO2 based nanotubes and nanosheets were synthesized to be used as an adsorbent and support in various processes. As a starting material, sol-gel synthesized anatase and commercial anatase were used. TiO2 was converted to high surface area hydrogen titanate (H2Ti3O7) and sodium titanate (Na2Ti3O7) nanotubes and nanosheets under alkaline conditions with hydrothermal treatment. In ...

This study investigates the stability and activity of HZSM-5 doped with metals such as molybdenum, nickel, copper, and iron under hydrothermal conditions used for the direct liquefaction of microalgae. Catalysts have been prepared by ion-exchange techniques, and MoZSM-5 was also prepared by wet incipient impregnation for comparison. Hydrothermal liquefaction is considered a potential route to c...

The Submarine Hydrothermal Alkaline Spring Theory for the emergence of life holds that it is the ordered delivery of hydrogen and methane in alkaline hydrothermal solutions at a spontaneously precipitated inorganic osmotic and catalytic membrane to the carbon dioxide and other electron acceptors in the earliest acidulous cool ocean that, through these gradients, drove life into being. That such...

A novel method which is based on the hydrothermal reaction was employed to synthesize LiV3O8. First, the mixture solution of LiOH, V2O5, and NH4OH was subjected to the hydrothermal reaction. The hydrothermal treatment yielded a clear, homogeneous solution. The evaporation of this solution led to the formation of a precursor gel. The gel was then heated at different temperatures in the range of ...

Surface roughness is needed in several yttria-stabilized zirconia components used in restorative dentistry for osseointegration or adhesion purposes. This can be achieved by different treatments, which may also modify the microstructure of the surface. Among them, sandblasting and chemical etching are widely used, but their effect on hydrothermal aging of zirconia is not fully understood. In th...

The synthesis of SBA-15 has been optimized using sodium silicate, an inexpensive precursor SBA-15. In this work, the influence times precipitation and hydrothermal treatment steps, on textural properties developed as well for reducing toxic compounds generated in tobacco smoking, studied. proved to be necessary obtain materials with adequate performance particular application.
