Different kinds of solid solutions in the V2O5-ZrSiO4-NaF system by sol-gel processes and their characterization
1993
Abstract In the V2O5-ZrSiO4-NaF system, three kinds of substances have been identified by sol-gel methods depending on the V2O5 amounts in the composition. Their characterization by X-ray diffraction, measurements of unit cell parameters, UV-visible (UV-V) spectroscopy, differential thermal analysis and lab colour parameter determination allow the consideration of three kinds of solid solution in the zircon lattice: (a) V+5,V+4-ZrSiO4, thermally stable and with a deep green colour; (b) V+4-ZrSiO4, thermally stable and blue coloured, made by the sol-gel method and with V2O5 amounts lower than 0·03 mol per formula weight; and (c) Na+,F−,V+4-ZrSiO4, a solid solution with a deep blue-turquoise …

Synthesis and characterization of V2O5SiO2ZrO2 pigments by sol-gel method
1992
Abstract Polymeric gels in the V2O5 SiO2 ZrO2 system were prepared from tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), zirconium(IV)-n-propoxide and vanadium(IV) oxyacetylacetonate, precursors. The effects of prehydrolysis time of TEOS and drying gel method on the stabilization of tetragonal zirconia in the silica amorphous matrix, nucleation and growth of the zircon (ZrSiO4) phase, and stabilization of the blue and green stains of vanadium zircon were studied. Results provide evidence that long time of prehydrolysis and fast drying do not favour zircon crystallization but stabilize the tetragonal zirconia in the amorphous matrix.
CuInS2 Films for Photovoltaic Applications Deposited by a Low-Cost Method.
2006
We report an atmospheric-pressure deposition method for preparing well-adhered and compact CuInS 2 films. The precursor film is obtained by a solution-coating technique and is subjected to a low-cost and safe one-step reduction-sulfurization treatment. A maximum thickness of 300 nm is achieved per layer, and up to three layers were sulfurized at a time. The obtained films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and visible-near-infrared (vis-NIR) spectrophotometry.
Synthesis of Uvarovite Garnet
1989
A garnet with interesting optical properties is synthesized by means of the ceramic method and the formation of gels. Colloidal silica or tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) is used as a starting reagent in the latter method of synthesis, together with nitrate and chloride salts of the remaining components. Use is made of ultraviolet-visible and infrared spectroscopy techniques and X-ray diffraction in studying the evolution of the system. Formation of the garnet phase at lower temperatures is observed when using the gel methods, as well as the absence of chromates during the process in the samples which contained chlorides.
Synthesis of V-ZrSiO4 solid solutions
1990
This letter describes the results of the preparation of V-ZrSiO 4 solid solutions from a sol or alkoxide and solute salts. This technique allows a greater degree of product formation to be achieved at lower temperatures, as well as the possibility of studying the characteristics of possible solid solutions
Effects of ZrO2 precursors on the synthesis of V-ZrSiO4 solid solutions by the sol-gel method
1992
The preparation of V-ZrSiO4 solid solutions starting from different ZrO2 precursors by using sol-gel methods is reported. The starting materials were hydrolysed and the dried gels were fired at a temperature between 500 and 900 °C with soaking times of 12h. The organic character of zirconia precursors was stronger, i.e. the starting material had more carbon atoms, a higher temperature was necessary to make the first crystalline phase appear (ZrO2(tetragonal)) and the temperature range for the whole phase transformation was narrower. In all dried gel samples the presence of infrared bands which might be associated with either Si-O-Zr or Si-O-V was not observed. On the other hand, some bands …
The preparation and thermal evolution of polymeric gels with garnet stoichiometry in the CaOAl2O3SiO2 and CaOCr2O3SiO2 systems
1990
Abstract The synthesis of gels with garnet stoichiometry in the CaOAl 2 O 3 SiO 2 and CaOCr 2 O 3 SiO 2 systems and their evolution in thermal processing have been studied. Dried gels with the stoichiometry 3CaO.Al 2 O 3 .3SiO 2 show a homogeneous aspect without detectable crystalline phase. The thermal evolution of these gels indicates no formation of grossularite at temperatures up to 1000°C after 12 h. In the uvarovite garnet samples, 3CaO.Cr 2 O 3 .3SiO 2 , a small amount of crystalline phase was detected in the dried gels. The homogeneity of the gels was checked by scanning electron microscropy. The infrared study of these polymeric gels confirmed the presence of SiOMe (MeCr 3+ …
