CeVO4 (Cerium orthovanadate) nanoparticles were synthesized by urea-assisted simple and efficient combustion method. Phase formations of synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by thermogravimetric-differential thermal analyzer (TG-DTA). X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern revealed the crystal planes and size of synthesized CeVO4 nanoparticles. The average size, morphological shape and the cry...

Cerium orthovanadate nanoparticles (CeVO4 NPs) were fabricated using urea-assisted facile sol-gel auto combustion method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern revealed the crystal planes and size of synthesized CeVO4 NPs. The morphological shape and the crystalline nature of the NPs were examined by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) affir...

Nanomaterials with both superhydrophobic surface properties as well as photocatalytic activities could have important industrial applications. Herein, we synthesized CeVO4 nanocrystals with hexagonal nanoplate structures from the reaction of decavanadate (K6V10O28⋅9 H2O) and CeCl3⋅H2O precursors via a hydrothermal method. This synthetic route has four advantages: 1) the reaction condition is re...

We developed a simple hydrothermal technique for the fabrication of flexible integrated composite containing cerium vanadate (CeVO4) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The CeVO4/MWCNTs possessed good conductivity interesting electrochemical catalytic performance when immobilized on glassy electrode (GCE). This CeVO4/MWCNTs-GCE sensor provided excellent analytical detection sulfonamide ...

Iron containing CeVO4 films were prepared using the sol–gel method. The crystalline structure of powders and films with Fe/Ce/V ratios of 0.1:1:1, 0.3:1:1 and 0.5:1:1 were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy. XRD revealed the predominance of a CeVO4-W (wakefieldite) crystalline phase with a small amount of monoclinic CeVO4, CeO2 and Fe2O3. Ex situ IR absorbanc...

CeVO4 as visible light driven photocatalyst was synthesized using Senna occidentalis (L.) Link leaves extract (SOE) by sol-gel method which can increase the degradation of malachite green (MG) under irradiation. The products were characterized Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometer (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope Energy Dispersive Spectrosc...
