Effect of Mn doping on the low-temperature synthesis of tricalcium phosphate (TCP) polymorphs
Abstract Effect of Mn doping on the low-temperature synthesis of tricalcium phosphate (TCP) polymorphs was demonstrated in α- and β-TCP polymorphs prepared by wet precipitation method under identical conditions and annealed at 700 °C. Calcium phosphates with Mn doping level in the range from 1 to 5 mol% were studied and the formation of desired polymorph was controlled by varying Mn content in as-prepared precipitates. It was found that increasing Mn content resulted in the formation of β-TCP, while α-TCP was obtained with low Mn doping level, whereas a mixture of two polymorphs was obtained for intermediate Mn concentrations. Moreover, doping with Mn ions allowed the synthesis of β-TCP at …
Heterogeneous fenton oxidation using magnesium ferrite nanoparticles for ibuprofen removal from wastewater: optimization and kinetics studies
In this study, the catalytic properties of Fenton-like catalyst based on magnesium ferrite nanoparticles for IBP degradation were examined. Structural and morphological studies showed the low crystallinity and mesoporous structure for the catalyst obtained via a glycine-nitrate method. The influences of catalyst dosage, oxidant concentration, and solution pH on the pollutant degradation were investigated. The pseudo-first-order model describes kinetic data, and under optimal condition (catalyst dose of 0.5 g L-1, H2O2 concentration of 20.0 mM, and pH of 8.0), apparent rate constant reached 0.091 min-1. It was shown that Fenton reaction was mainly induced by iron atoms on the catalyst surfac…
