the composite powders of barium-magnesium ferrite were prepared using sol-gel auto-combustion and microwave methods. the crystal structure and the shape of nanocomposites have been compared. x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscope (sem) and vibrating sample magnetometer (vsm) were used to investigate the structural, morphological and magnetic properties of nanopowder. the formatio...

in this work, ce0.75gd0.1ca0.15o1.8 nanopowders are successfully synthesized by a glycine-nitrate combustionprocess under the microwave irradiation. then calcination was carried out at 700 °c. calcined powdersidentified by room temperature x-ray diffraction were single phase and had a crystallite size between 16 to 24nm (based on schererr formula). scanning electron microscopy (sem) was employe...

In this study a procedure for sample digestion based on sample combustion assisted by microwave radiation is proposed. Combustion is started by microwave radiation in the presence of oxygen under pressure using ammonium nitrate as aid for ignition. The system was adapted in a microwave oven with quartz closed vessels. A quartz piece is used simultaneously as a sample holder and as protection to...

Microwave assisted combustion synthesis is used for fast and controlled processing of advanced ceramics. Single phase and sinter active nano crystalline alpha alumina powders were successfully synthesized by different fuel-to-oxidant molar ratios using aluminium nitrate as an oxidiser, glycine as a reducing agents and millipore water as a solvent by microwave assisted combustion synthesis. Ther...

Abstract: Microwave processing is one of the novel methods for combustion synthesis of intermetallic compounds andcomposites. This method brings about a lot of opportunities for processing of uniquely characterized materials. In thisstudy, the combustion synthesis of TiAl/Al2O3 composite via microwave heating has been investigated by thedevelopment of a heat transfer model including a microwave...

Tungsten oxide (WO3) and tungsten oxide hydrate (WO3.H2O) nanoparticles were synthesized via microwave-assisted solution combustion in comparison with the acidic precipitation method. Oxalic acid was used as a surfactant and forming agent in the acidic precipitation method. In addition to oxalic acid, glycine and citric acid were also used as fuels in the microw...

the cunica nanopanicles have been synthesized by sol-gel auto-combusson. microwave and co-precipitationtechniques. then, the results of the three techniques were compared. in the vol-ael auto-combustion synthesiswas used glycine as a fuel. at first, sol was prepared. then, gel was achieved from drying so'. the prepared gelwas burnt at 350°c. in the noicrowavc technique, gel was prepared. then, ...

The use of microwave heating to initiate combustion synthesis has been increasingly investigated in recent years because of its advantages over traditional methods. A simple mathematical model is used to model these experiments. The microwave power absorption term is modelled as the product of an Arrhenius reaction term with a function that decays exponentially with distance. The former represe...

The composite powders of barium-magnesium ferrite were prepared using sol-gel auto-combustion and microwave methods. The crystal structure and the shape of nanocomposites have been compared. X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) were used to investigate the structural, morphological and magnetic properties of nanopowder.

In this study nano-crystalline ZnO particles were synthesized by microwave-assisted solution combustion method. Zinc nitrate and urea were used as oxidizer and fuel, respectively. The effect of fuel to oxidizer (F/O) ratio on ZnO powder properties was investigated by using different urea/nitrate ratios. X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscopy and fourier transform infra-red were used...
