nanocrystalline alumina powder has been synthesized using solution combustion method. the obtained nanocrystalline alumina powder was used as an efficient catalyst for the synthesis of imidazo[1,2-a]azine derivatives from one-pot three component reaction of benzaldehyde, 2-aminoazine and trimethylsilylcyanide under ultrasonic irradiation and refluxing condition. reusability of catalyst and shor...

Nanocrystalline titanium dioxide powder is characterized for phase analysis as well as particle size and its distribution by x-ray diffraction and small angle neutron scattering measurements. Analysis of the SANS data in the momentum transfer range q = 0.1 1.8 nm reveals an average particle size of 24.82 nm in good agreement with the particle size determined earlier by transmission electron mic...

A sonochemistry-based synthesis method was used to produce nanocrystalline nickel oxide powder with ≈ 20 nm average crystallite diameter from Ni(OH)(2) precursor. Ultrasound waves were applied to the primary solution to intensify the Ni(OH)(2) precipitation. Dried precipitates were calcined at 320°C to form nanocrystalline NiO particles. The morphology of the produced powder was characterized b...

Due to their limited length of structural coherence nanocrystalline materials show very diffuse powder X-ray diffraction patterns that are difficult to interpret unambiguously. We demonstrate that a combination of high-energy X-ray powder diffraction and atomic pair distribution function analysis can be used to both assess the geometry (i.e., size and shape) and determine the internal atomic or...

It is known that work pieces with nanocrystalline structure condition have much higher performance than those with an ordinary structure. There are known number of techniques for manufacturing of nanocrystalline materials in powder condition however a question of manufacturing bulk pieces in the same nanocrystalline state mentioned is that compaction and synthesizing of nanocrystalline powders ...

Amorphous powder of composition corresponding to Ni60Ti20Zr20 (in at%) was obtained by ball milling in a high-energy mills starting from pure elements. Formation of the amorphous structure was observed already after 20 h of milling, although complete amorphization occurred after 40 h. The microhardness of powders increased from about 30 HV for pure elements to above 400 HV (1290 MPa) after 40 h...

the synthesis of nanocrystalline fe3al powder by mechanical alloying as well as the structural ordering of the synthesized fe3al particles during the subsequent thermal analysis were investigated. mechanical alloying was performed up to 100 hours using a planetary ball mill apparatus with rotational speed of 300 rpm under argon atmosphere at ambient temperature. the synthesized powders were cha...

Nanocrystalline ceria has been synthesized by a non-hydrolytic method using organic solvent and precipitant. The effect of the source compound on final nanocrystalline powder was investigated. The cerium nitrate hexahydrate subjected to different vacuum/thermal treatments to get cerium source compound having different extent of water of crystallization. The nanoceria, synthesized from these com...
