In situ Raman spectroscopy was applied to investigate the speciation of molybdates under hydrothermal conditions in 0.2 M aqueous solution in the temperature range between 20°C and 200°C and at pH values between 7 and 1. The nature and abundance of molecular and supra-molecular species differs significantly compared to the distribution of species under ambient conditions at the same pH. Whereas...

One-dimensional nanostructures exhibit interesting electronic and optical properties due to their low dimensionality leading to quantum confinement effects. ZnO has received lot of attention as a nanostructured material because of unique properties rendering it suitable for various applications. Amongst the different methods of synthesis of ZnO nanostructures, the hydrothermal method is attract...

A simple and effective route to improve the fluorescence of carbon dots is reported. A weak fluorescent solution was obtained by a diminution step to obtain tiny particles from bagasse-based carbonaceous blocks. This solution was subjected to hydrothermal treatment under alkaline conditions to improve its fluorescent performance. The luminescence was found to be improved by more than 20-fold af...

nay zeolites with different framework si/al ratios were synthesized via hydrothermal technique. structural characteristics of the synthesized zeolites were determined by using xrd, xrf, sem, bet analyses. the effects of operating conditions of hydrothermal dealumination, i.e. time, temperature and partial pressure of water vapor on dealumination of the y zeolites framework and their structure w...

We report the synthesis of nanoapatite crystals via a hydrothermal reaction of hydroxyapatite precipitates. The impact of the reaction conditions on the properties of the crystals obtained were evaluated. The hydrothermal reaction that takes place markedly affected the crystallinity, morphology, and size of the nanoapatite crystals formed. High crystallinity and large crystal size were obtained...
